I found a beautifully simple video that explains in clear terms how state-run welfare programs are in their very essence, immoral, coercive institutions that cause more damage to society than the good they supposedly offer.
The main idea is that if you want to do good and help others, on principle, you cannot harm others in the process. The very idea of robbing one person to help another is a negation and perversion of the idea of goodwill towards men.
