Or should it be only considered morally good but not necessary?
Say the government for whatever reason decided that in addition to your taxes, 1% of your paycheck is now going to some charity (be it world hunger relief, global education, veteran help, etc). Would you be okay with this?
Or should charity be only something that is morally good to do, but not morally bad if you don't do it.
P.S have you guys ever donated anything to charity or know of any good charity's that you would like to mention

If it is forced, it is no longer a donation, it is no longer charity but is an obligation. The thing about charitable giving is that the person chooses to give. How to give, what to give, who to give to, and so on. The moment someone else says "you should give this much to this cause" that's not charity. That's obligation, or if it is being mandated by government, it's taxation.
