Other-Promotion

If you ethical aim is to promote the welfare and well-being of others, but your sole or primary technique is to resort to government intrusion into private lives to curb and run those lives, while moving to confiscate private wealth, collected and equally distributed by federal agents, your terrible means to achieve a worthy end does corrupt and doom the whole enterprise. By centralizing power in governmental hands, you have besmirched all, thereby detracting from what is their welfare and well-being.
