In the case of welfare, people are being GIVEN money other people earned.  In the case of deductions, it's about KEEPING money YOU earned*.  
 

* as opposed to paying taxes on it like other people.

If tax breaks are across the board, I don't have an issue with it. But if your deductions are only available due to your bracket, that's not a break, that's charity.
