It's not so much what they do or don't give as individuals as what actions they take in their psychologically-disassociated personae as the profit-maximizing engines of the corporate sector of society. Unless they're going to undertake things like charitable toxic waste cleanup or mountaintop reconstruction, as well as building theaters and food drives, private charity is still at the 'bandaid on a sucking chest wound' level, and trying to rely on it is like putting a claymore mine up against your chest when there's St Elmo's Fire crackling all around you.
Certainly government employees disassociate, too, but from a societal level, and speaking personally as someone who'd be expecting to have to deal with them, 'How can I not get in trouble?' is infinitely preferable to 'Who can I step on to get ahead?'

"V, did you do something foolish?"
"Yes, and it was glorious."
