that doesn't prove anything at all, if you offer something for "free" then obviously it's going to be popular... doesn't make it good or right in any way...
just like no one will seriously propose abolishing (or allowing people to opt-out of) social security, even though in the next few decades, it will become obvious that it was all a ponzi scheme all along and the whole thing will implode...
only government can fuck up something so simple... you pay 15% of your income your whole life... then you have $$ for when you retire... and yet the government somehow managed to make it not work...
do you even realize how much we all would have if we invested 15% ourselves of every penny earned our whole lives, 95% of us would be millionaires.... yet somehow due to government incompetence most of us will end up with $500/month check which will barely be enough to buy some food...
