Is there an obligation for the government to help the poor?
In my opinion, there is no need for the government to help the poor. Why shouldn't the poor help themselves and get up on their own?
Secondly, where is the government going to get this money from? A probable guess would be the taxpayer's money. So, the government is the medium for transferring this money from the rich to the poor. A.K.A Stealing from the rich and giving it to the poor. Redistribution of money. Money that the normal people have earned. These taxes should not go into the poor's pocket, if they didn't do anything to earn it. By helping the poor, the government is technically being unfair to the others.
