Because:

i) as a conservative you don't believe in the value of personal choice
and freedom

ii) you are afraid that they may spend the money on escapist
pasttimes: alcohol, drugs or TM?

iii) you only carry confederate money?

My political philosophy has nothing to do with it. Many people who are down and out are so because of bad decisions and I don't want to feed that process. So, I give them something wholesome, something they could use that won't hurt them. Christ said " I was naked and you clothed me, I was hungry and you fed me" I would hate to think he said " I was bored and you got me stoned". I also knew a priest who did yagayas and part of many of the yagyas he did ended with distributing food and clothing to the poor. M also said don't give beggers money  because it fosters their dependence on begging.
