Put it this way: if you were really poor, would you rather be given money to help your sort your own life out, or for some charity to use the money for 'what's best for you'. I know what I'd want.
A problem is that people are often not free - due to family or social pressures or even plain violence (e.g. domestic) - to decide how to use money.
