Milton Freidman said "You are free to do as much good as you want...with your own money".
WALTER WILLIAMS: I share Pope Benedict's desire to assist our fellow man in need. But I believe that reaching into one's own pocket to do so is praiseworthy and laudable. Reaching into another's pocket to assist one's fellow man in need is despicable and worthy of condemnation.
And for those of you who are Christians out there, I'm very sure that when God gave Moses the commandment "thou shalt not steal," he did not mean that thou shalt not steal unless you got a majority vote in Congress. Moreover, if you were to say to God, "Well, I know you say thou shalt not steal, but is it OK to be a recipient of stolen property?" He would probably consider that a sin as well.
