Taking a few liberties:
Then He will also say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels; for I was hungry, and you gave Me nothing to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me nothing to drink; I was a stranger, and you did not invite Me in; naked, and you did not clothe Me; sick, and in prison, and you did not visit Me.’
“Then they themselves also will answer, ‘Lord, but we voted for people who promised to take care of the poor and reduce recidivism. And we paid taxes too.’
And He will say to them, `You wanted other people to take care of the poor, but would not do it yourself.’
Well, Teddywedgers is open again; though that's probably everybody else's first idea too.

Jesus came to live among the poor and share their lives. The Father who owns the cattle on a thousand hills could have just dropped off some cash, if He thought that was the solution.
