Right wing Christians in the US (some of the most phobic people there are when it comes to equating any kind of government run social program with socialism) will say that although the concept of charity is Christian in nature, it is anti-Christian for governments to force people to act charitably.

In the US, many people equate any kind of social program that is administered by the government with socialism and marxism (and many right wing Christians equate them with Satanism). Which is why the people of the right wing work so hard to conflate in people's minds the idea that socialism equals totalitarianism. Such people say they want to shrink government down until it's "small enough to drown in a bathtub". They believe in privatizing everything. Of course, the people who buy this idea haven't really put any thought into what would happen if we really did this. They don't realize that they would have to pay a toll just to drive down the street on which they live, and that they would have to pay up front for all of the things they take for granted now, like libraries, schools, fire and police departments, the military and the coast guard.

These beliefs, of course, are being promoted by large multi-national corporations that want to own everything so that we will have to pay them whatever price they decide instead of having any say ourselves how we will deal with these questions.

The privatization of the water in one of the Latin American countries is a very good example of what the world will look like if they get their way. I believe it was Bechtel that owned the water after it was privatized, and the people weren't even allowed to collect their own rainwater with out paying Bechtel for it. People were having to choose between eating and having water to drink and clean with. The people rose up and got rid of the government that made that deal, and their water is once again a public resource rather than a private one.
