No, that would be your perception of that. If you are surviving on SS and Medicare, and are pulling out more than you put in (with interest) it's welfare. I'm just saying give people a chance to invest more for their future so they don't have to rely on welfare, even if you call it by a different name.

If they don't/can't, then they would go on (real) welfare and Medicaid/ACA. And we could then fund it properly, via taxes.
