In the same way that any benefit program being cancelled (eg. movies for kids for free every Friday on the town green, etc) are stealing.

It's a benefit that had some or all of it taken away.

If it's part of your pay structure, and then suddenly it's not given to you, that would be stealing.

It's a benefit provided by the taxes of all. It's not part of your pay structure.
