Both seem like you are skirting round 'from each according to his
abilities; to each, according to his needs' - not such an 'entscheidend
neue Aspekte' (at least in ideas, if not in reality). In that spirit,
how about:
'Contribute what you can; take what you need'
with no moralising about those who cannot contribute, and no
apparent command to 'contribute nothing'.

PS sorry about the english; my german is improving slowly, but it will
take a long time before I can confidently use words like
'Selbstentfaltungsaspekt' ;-)
