But there are charities. And the ambitious (and/or extremely wealthy)
can start their own organizations. Why must your desired method
involve "government"?
It mustn't, but it generally does.
Did you not read the part where I mentioned Habitat for Humanity, or was
it just harder to build a straw man if you took it into consideration?
