It is Joseph, the same who was sold into Egypt, who gives us one of the earliest and best examples of government welfare.
Of government taking over an industry, to save it.
Of government reaching out to save the economy.
Yes, Joseph conducted a massive and far-reaching government program, he did. There were seven plenteous years, and then seven lean years. Joseph had the government store up food during the good years, then allocated it out during the bad.
The point is, not all government is bad. Not all government intervention is bad. Not all government welfare is bad.
