(Isn't the church supposed to take care of the poor, biblically?  In this perfect world where everyone is governing themselves so well, the church should be able to pick up careing for the impoverished and needy... whose numbers would be approaching near zero as these well governed people no longer have a dependency on alcohol, drugs, tobacco, prostitution, etc... and are no longer too lazy to hold a job, and have employers who are willing to pay living wages [after all, everone's governing themselves so well there is no need for government, even grubby capitalists, right?], so I hereby declare your corruption corrupt!)

Granted, but we become so overly compassionate that we give ALL of out wealth away, and become the poorest nation on earth, who ourselves need assistance... the best way to help the poor is not to become one :p
