Giving money to the poor isn’t the same as tossing it into a black hole. They spend it on stuff. Keeping other people in the black as they do it.

Free stuff tends to get used like it was water. If my water isn’t metered, and I water my yard so heavily that it runs off into the street, the runoff isn’t keeping somebody else in the black.
