Not by using government as a vehicle of redistribution. Jesus did not advocate forced governmental "charity". Nor did he advocate "feeding the poor" by using a voting booth as a means to give away other people's money and things.
Christ's commandments about the poor are PERSONAL responsibilities, not a collective responsibility. And the leftists perverts this to fit their desire to feel good about themselves for "caring" without actually making any personal effort or sacrifice.
