"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.

So what do we do until that is remedied? Let 'em eat cake?

Sure. It's another method the left uses to dismantle religion in America - usurp charitable acts performed by religious bodies, and pick everyone's pocket so they have less to give to the churches for their charitable works.
