“If almost everyone is in favor of feeding the hungry, the politician may find it in his interest to do so.

If the great majority is against the hungry man, some kind soul among the minority still may feed him—the politician will not.” CharityLibertarianismWelfare State Book:The machinery of freedom: guide to a radical capitalism Source: The machinery of freedom: guide to a radical capitalism
