I looked it up.[0][1] It’s a lot. About 14.7 million Americans work full time and receive Medicare or food stamps (SNAP).
> And 21 million of people are subsidized. I do not see a capitalist system subsidizing 21 million people. That is not capitalism. Call it something else.
So by your logic, USA is a socialist country? Democratic socialist? Communist? That’s… not what most Americans would say.
> The numbers could not be fully explained by part-time schedules; about 70 percent of the 21 million people receiving Medicaid or SNAP benefits work full time, in general, the GAO said.
