So...you benefit from the social programs of the US without contributing. Nice solution!

I'm pretty sure I get nothing out of the US social programs considering I'm a resident of another country.

You're probably protected by the US military, via US navy protecting shipping routes, or some other form of defense.

Do you think the US is not being "paid" by its position as the dominant world power?

US military is not particularly known for its altruism. You may want to rethink the internal logic of your argument here.

The US Government? and by extension, the US people? No, it is not getting paid at all. Private government contractors though? Yes! This is Neoliberalism in a nutshell. Move social profits into private hands until everything collapses.
