But justice aims to create a social order in which, if individuals choose not to be charitable, people still don't go hungry, unschooled or sick without care. Charity depends on the vicissitudes of whim and personal wealth; justice depends on commitment instead of circumstance.

• Las organizaciones benéficas públicas, los bancos de alimentos y las despensas de las iglesias hacen más que nunca, pero no dan abasto. Nunca podremos acabar con el hambre sólo a través de la maravillosa labor de las organizaciones benéficas locales. Al igual que otras democracias occidentales, debemos acabar con nuestro problema nacional del hambre a través de un liderazgo nacional y político. La caridad está bien para algunas cosas, pero no como forma de alimentar a una nación. No protegemos nuestra seguridad nacional a través de la caridad, y tampoco deberíamos proteger así a nuestras familias y niños.
