Every time a beggar asks for money, he gives it, until he has no more to give

Why would the rich man ever run out? Wealth isn't merely a pile of currency, it is a collection of wealth producing assets.

A man who collects $1000/day in rents will never have less than $1000/day to give to beggers.

The harder question to answer is why some of us pay others for the privilege of accessing public goods.
