I'll take the even more aggressive tack than the other people who have replied to you: it actually is still a social safety net. Even people who (supposedly) bilk social safety programs have dependents, and those dependents do not deserve privation because you disapprove of their guardian's behavior.

Have a little perspective and focus your ire on our ridiculous military budget (which is also a welfare program, mind you) instead.
