“If you have made good decisions in your lifetime (and come out ahead with millions in the bank), why shouldn’t you get the money back that you have put in?”
Because you’re stealing from others? Stealing is wrong whether or not you are the beneficiary.
Unemployment insurance and social security should be optional, not mandatory. Period.

What you propose is wealth redistribution, comrade. Right now, since you are forced to put in money, so why shouldn’t you get it back regardless of your net worth?
I agree, however, that the insurance and security should be optional so that those who can afford to put money get back their dues, not some moocher who is living off of a broken system. Until then, all those who have put in should get their dues. Anything else is wealth redistribution.
