Wouldn’t it be better if they just didn’t steal that loaf of bread?

Or, you know, if we took the money much earlier on in the chain, and used it to give them food so they don't need to. Bread sure doesn't cost $116 an hour. Charity cannot solve systemic failures of government policy (like not taking care of its citizens).
