Neither does the government, if you measure it that way.

The amount of government money that goes to the homeless or the bottom 5% is fairly modest, because they aren't a large percentage of the population.

Most actual government "welfare" spending is the government taking $5000 from you in taxes and then offering you the $5000 back but only if you submit to their conditions on how to spend it.
