I think that if we were generous with what we have toward those who are down on their luck and in need, there would be no need for the government (or anyone else) to redistribute anything – we would do it ourselves, cheerfully, without being asked. (The root meaning of “charity” is “love”.)
Government does most of what it does only because we should be doing it but don’t, thanks to our own short-sighted “me first” human nature.
