I agree with rabbiofberlin. The comment from “gavra at work” is absurd. One can not take Tzdeka to learn Torah beacause he is poor, only if the giver wants him to explicitly learn( Chaim Volozhner). Certainly most of the government programs are intended for destitute people not for those who don’t want to work. Anyway what real Ben Torah wants Goish charity and for that matter money from the Medina in Israel.
