I believe, both private sectors and the government sectors had duties in helping the poor, but in different ways.

Private sectors

-Private sectors could help the poor by providing job opportunities that produce salary for the poor. 
- Not only that, private sectors should paid the required amount of taxes that will be allocated by the  government into grants/welfares for the poor
- The private sectors also could help the poor in the form of private charities.

The government
- The government could help the poor by allocating the tax payment from companies into federal budget, that could be use to provide aids and welfare such as health care, scholarship, public infrastructure, etc
- The government could improve the nation economy by making favorable trade deals with another nations
- Not only that, the government could also give some incentives for local business so they can grow and provide more job opportunities
