No one gave Social Security to the average person - we pay into it our whole
life.  It’s only the sick 
and lazy that get it free,  Id rather not have to pay into it and save the
money myself.  So if the 
government took that away I think there would be many unhappy people.  


 > Face it.  Everything ought to be free.

Even if everything could be free it should not be.  If you take away the need
for work people will not 
have something to strive and then they will get bored and their bodies and
minds will dwindle.  

 > It is only a matter of time until it is.

You mean until society collapses and in the remaining chaos its take what you
want for free.
