    Who are you to decide what they’re allowed to buy? You’d rather have someone go hungry on the off chance they might buy something you don’t agree with?

      It’s ultimately an assessment done in a case by case basis. Another example: will you give money to a relative who will use it for gambling? Helping someone turn around their life and enabling their habits are different things.

        Giving another person money usually implies the transfer of ownership of that money to that other person, unless otherwise specified.

            Sure. And depending on the circumstances the conditions might not make you look like a very nice person. Which you are of course free to ignore.
