A Christian Society will have laws reflecting “social justice”. Interestingly, most Christians (primarily in America) have become radically biased against nearly any measure of social justice in modern society.
When discussing issues of poverty and welfare we do well not to “politicize” the subject but rather, as Christians, look at it biblically.

There's a difference is helping the needy and making lazy people dependent on the Government for their survival. Don't you think?
