P. J. O'Rourke

It cannot claim the power to redistribute money or property nor to force reluctant citizens to perform acts of charity against their will. Government is created by the people. No individual possesses the power to take another's wealth or to force others to do good, so no government has the the right to do such things either. The creature cannot exceed the creator.
Ezra Taft Benson
-
To achieve charity, we must submit, become patient, meek, humble. . . . We must exercise the love of God as a power.
