Beautifully written, and a great question about community.
Is it us, or is it the government?
I actually don't really like that idea. I think, as communities, the government should be us. We elect them to represent us. We pay taxes, so that things in our common interest can be organised. To me, ensuring a minimum, reasonably comfortable level of welfare for all, is a common interest. The government should take care of that in our names. With our tax money. It is our shared responsability.
Unfortunately, our societies, no matter where you are in the world, don't work that way. There's always the haves that will try to have more, and the have-nots that will be squeezed for every last crumb of bread.
Giving from what we can miss is an act of defiance. It's our little rebellion for humanity.
