You are right. People tend not to care until it effects them directly, and then its too late.
There is a story from the Holocaust (Not to use the Nazi Trump argument). The guys says, when they came to take away the first group we didn't say anything, and when they came for the second and third we stayed silent, when they finally came for us, there was no one left to protest.

In this case, they noticed her utility bill was off the wall & they searched her house for anything suspicious. Had this women been living next door to someone that had a high utility bill but got caught selling weed to one of her kids she'd probably wonder what could've been done & why hadn't anything been done to prevent it?
