Democracy decides who the food should be distributed.

Read the history on social security. It pulled millions of people out of poverty and most of them were old women. Our moms!

<<A limited form of the Social Security program began as a measure to implement " social insurance" during the Great Depression of the 1930s, when poverty rates among senior citizens exceeded 50 percent. [1] The stock market crash of 1929 had destroyed the value of many Americans' retirement savings, and bank failures did further damage.[ citation needed]
