    Social security is a very different case, it’s designed to be a safety net, even in its inception. There is no claim or language that indicates it’s anything else.

    Police however are prompted up by things like “protect and serve” and a lot of other language/guidance/media to be portrayed as protectors, when that’s not necessarily the case.
