It's often suggested that welfare programs are broken and should be done away with, and in the absence of welfare programs, charitable giving would take over for what welfare programs used to cover.
Do you think that can happen?
Why or why not?

The problem with charities is that they're not run by the democratic process that the government is. They can be run by one or a small group of people, who can decide to stop giving to certain areas or people for reasons that only they choose. Welfare programs have to go through bureaucratic systems before they can be changed.
