Okay, maybe I do not understand Social Security. I'm not American, but I wanted to use an example Americans would be familiar with. Thanks for correcting me.

What about Medicaid? Isn't that an example of a program paid for by everyone and benefiting only those who need it?

I don't know much about Medicaid so I couldn't answer that, I'm disappointed you're being downvoated though. It obviously still contributed to a meaningful discussion, and I thought that's what we were using voats for here. And don't worry, most of us Americans don't understand half our policies, it's become such a clusterfuck it's all but impossible for any one person to understand.

Thanks. I wasn't even trying to start a debate about what should be. I just think the quote makes things seem more black-and-white than they really are.
