Should giving money to charity be an obligation?

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

  • Which charity would it go to? There's literally thousands in the US alone. I'm not sure if it works this way in the US, but I can designate a portion of my wages to be automatically donated to a charity of my choice by my employer. The total donations show up on my T4 slip, and I can claim them as a donation tax credit on my return.
