It is not the best safety net in the world. And private charity can only do so much.
You have eight brothers and sisters which is great I am glad you guys can help each other out. Some people do not have a family support system. I would rather pay higher taxes and have a better social justice system than rely on private contributions to close the gap.
Most people are like me....if taxes were voluntary they would not pay them, and people who do not want to pay taxes are not going to go out give that money they did not have to pay to the government to needy neighbors in the community. That never would happen on any sort of scale.
