> so what? It is on their dime, not yours.

Actually in Europe it is on a dime of a taxpayer so also his.

No, they paid into it their whole life. So, it is their dime not the current taxpayer’s. The taxpayer is paying for their own future.

That's not how state pensions or state healthcare works.

Which is why we should be against taxpayer-funded healthcare: You don't get to make some of these decisions because you aren't paying for it.
