Why does there need to be a government program when private charities and the poor individual's close friends and family could do the job?

Well, the problem with charity is that it is circumstantial and does not necessarily address everyone that may "need" welfare. I have little problem paying a percentage of my taxes to see that someone else can get back on their feet and help support my own healthcare.

The way I see it, to those who need it, to give a little is to get a little. If the government wants to regulate it, so be it. I have no problem letting them do the grunt work over something I would have little time to do anyway.

Last time I checked, neither of us have that right.
