I appreciate that you have positive intentions, but you seem to have a faith in the government controlling assets which is unsupported by the facts of every government in recorded history.

Look at the current covid stimulus bill in the US as an example of how money gets allocated under a "democratically disbursed" system. Depending on where and when in human history you go, the majority opinion might have been "kill all the X people" or "do Z because God commands it".

Basically, "the most moral thing to do" is completely unrelated to "what the government will do" even if that government is democratically elected.
