It doesn't mention whether governments become richer when they give money to the poor. I'm betting this is the only time when the Laws of God don't apply.

God's laws apply in this situation, too. Governments don't benefit, because they're not really being charitable, plus they have to steal the money first.

Jesus said give unto "Caesar that which is Caesars" refering to taxes. He didn't seem to consider it stealing.
