You need to read more of Dickens' works! He slanders and ridicules many a wealthy character as well as the "do gooders"...whom he saw as doing NO good at all!

Prince Albert actually did more FOR the poor ( through his wife, who made suggestions to the government ) than blabby Dickens ever did! What were Prince Albert's suggestions you might ask? Well two of the BIG ones were free education for ALL children and new public housing for the poor which were NOT cramped, nor tenements, nor in any way slums and which had running water and a bathroom in each apartment!

He was mocking what we call limousine liberals. People with a “cause” (typically wealthy women). But virtually all hif novels have people doing the right thing with their wealth. Oliver Twist does. Hell the Pickwickians are wealthy old men and are very lovable.
