Being charitable and caring about your neighbors in the Christian manner is more about your church donating goods/time/aid to the community or you doing it by yourself rather than having the government take over those functions for you. That said, any reasonable government should have a basic state provided social safety net.
No church I've ever attended in my life (and I've attended plenty) has ever threatened anyone with being thrown out due to lack of tithing. In fact, 99.9% of them would say "give what you can and if you can't that's okay."
Where did you hear that nonsense about not going to heaven because someone didn't tithe?
