can you explain why you don't consider medicare, food stamps, and section 8 housing to be social safety nets?

Because there can be very high qualifications for some of them? Medicare is not applied uniformly, and you might get a random price for what you get. Medicaid is a social safety net, but that's a last ditch thing and very few providers take it. I'm not sure what it would take to qualify for section 8, but I think it has a long waiting list and some high qualifications like having just about nothing.
