I’m reasonably certain the command is for the believer to care for the poor and those less fortunate, not for them to abdicate responsibility to the government.
That would be true if those same people weren’t using it as a bad faith argument.
You dont get to claim that the US is a christian nation, founded on christianity, with a Speaker of the House saying he’s the new Moses, trying to destroy every barrier between church and state, then also claim that government isnt meant to do these functions when its inconvienent.
Last I checked, the U.S. government was primarily made up of professed Christians. So shouldn’t they be using their positions to care for the poor and those less fortunate?
I’ve read the New Testament and I don’t remember where it says that the only way that the poor should be helped is by Christians giving them money from their salaries. Can you point it out to me please?
Because even the believer don’t. On top of the fact that they vote for the government to press and punish those same people. You are the ones who don’t know what you’re talking about.

This is an exceptional comment. Thank you.

Based on their theology, no, they should be using portons of their salaries to take care of those individuals.

This is exactly right. Sad that you’re downvoted by those who don’t know their new testament…

Hmm… i detect a bit of a silly assumption…
