Up to a point. The poor should be able to sustain but should have an uncomfortable life so that they have a desire to improve themselves.
I remember in my youth a pastor saying that Madagascar was suffering from poverty, hunger, disease and you send missionaries over there. There were over 100,000 in the population at the time.
They gave them food and medicine, guess what happened?!... 1,000,000 people living in disease and poverty. It has to be thought out.
Lots of waste in government though, projects that are money pits continue to operate on and one whereas in real business it disappears rather quickly.
