Agreed. This makes me wonder if there have been any systematic studies on the relative efficacy of private vs public provision of charity.
I definitely recall hearing about studies to that effect, but I don't know how good they were.
It seems like there would be a lot of disagreement around what the right metrics are to evaluate. One of the benefits of private charity is that each donor can have different objectives in mind, but that means there's a subjective element to how well they're fulfilling donor wishes.
