When Jesus says to help the poor, he does not mean to form an oligarchy with power to take the fruit of labor from the collective and distribute it in a way that seems best to them. He’s talking about you individually sacrificing in a voluntarily way to help. See the difference?
Of course. Where have I suggested anything otherwise? Only problem is, we have known since Dickens, individual philanthropy is not enough to rescue the poor. And I very much doubt it will be enough to stop the poisoning of our ecosphere by our hyper-capitalist system. So, governments have a proper role to play, too. As does civil society, including the media. As does the Church. When we come together as a voluntary collective, we can accomplish so much more than as a bunch of disparate individuals, how ever well intentioned we all may be. That's the way corporates work, and how they have managed to mess up God's world. And that's how we must work, to undo that damage.
