> shouldn't the American people take half my money from me? I took all of it from them.
No, you did not take it from them. They willingly gave it to you. You are free to give it to them, but you choose not to.
> I don't believe that wealthy people should get to choose were their money goes. That's a decision for society as a whole
Please do not equate any body of government to "society as a whole."
Even in a true democracy where everyone votes, the majority will never have an adequate enough perspective to ensure funds are correctly distributed.
I don't know your friend. How can I know what he needs? How do you expect the real specific cases to be solved without direct assistance from someone (an individual, a charity) who knows how to help?
