You won't manage for very long either. Okay, so supplying a number of 
people with liquid will up their survival-period from like a week to 
perhaps a month, if you can get them fed too, they'll do ok for even 
longer, but I think with no training you'd be unlikely to manage keeping 
anyone alive past a year.

Besides the ethical issues there are practical issues. If you're alone, 
it's unlikely you'd manage, really.
