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?

Do it the Islamic way and pay 2.5 percent of your wealth at the end of every year. This is after you have paid for everything that you need to and have enough money for yourself. If you saved about 10,000 then 2.5% percent of that will go to the poor and feeding the hungry and so on, if every working person in the country did this then I think it could work.
