Helping the poor get medical attention is the job of the Church, not the government.

Which church is doing that?

"Which church is doing that?"

WE are the Church. Through giving and missions, many people today are being helped through the generosity of charitable donations. After all, throughout history the care of the sick was entrusted to monastic orders and religious communities.

The government has (wrongly) usurped this roll through taxation and inefficient bureaucracy.

The Catholic Church has a lot of hospitals with charity programs. I think the Jewish faith also does.

I don't know about the Protestants.

I doubt the muzzies do.
