Barbour and wright’s comparison of american social welfare programs with social security suggests that a. social security remains popular whereas social welfare programs have been curtailed b. neither group of programs has many zealous supporters in congress c. both programs face serious opposition from interest groups such as aarp d. considerable majorities of the public would like to see both programs massively expanded

The correct answer is A.Social Security mains popular whereas social welfare programs have been curtailed.

B. neither group of programs has many zealous supporters in Congress. This is wrong because Social Security is a very popular program and the benefits are guarded zealously.

C.both programs face serious opposition from interest groups such as AARP. This is wrong because AARP (formerly the American Association of Retired Persons) represents people that are over 50 years and AARP defend interests related to Social Security program, mandatory retirement or medical care.

D.considerable majorities of the public would like to see both programs massively expanded. This is wrong because people see Social Security in a positive way as they contribute to it while working and then receive it back, as if they did an investment and are earning it back rather than receiving a government handout. While Social Welfare is the transferring income from Social Security funds to Social Welfare or paid by government. So public would like Social Security program to be expanded while the Welfare program has been reformed to end up with the thirty-year policy of no American child hungry in the US.
