That would be proper and common sense. Two items sadly lacking.

I believe it was Grover Cleveland that said, after there was a severe drought in Texas and congress proposed to help the starving families, "while the people support the government, it is not the government that should support the people. The good will of their neighbors and churches can support them much more efficiently than government". Of course this was in a time before we became a socialist country.
