The biggest problem in the US is that govt forced “charity” is extremely corrosive to real charity.
Oh, but He did say - render unto Caesar what is Caesars, and unto God what Is Gods. The private charities cannot handle the volume of hungry people. They run out each and every month - the churches were given the mandate to feed the poor, however, some choose to build expensive buildings and what not - so, the government had to step in to fill the gap. There is waste and fraud in charitable organizations as well - it’s an inescapable truth.
