I understand your argument. We certainly aren't the first to investigate this. Would you please provide a source for your claim?

What claim? That social services can provide money if you do not have it? Here's an example for the Netherlands. There's tons of socialist constructs in European countries that provide support if you have trouble.

No, the "more viable" claim. Compared to free as in beer.
