      Government collects taxes, government pays for socialized medicine with taxes along with other things. Maybe government sets up a sovereign wealth fund with taxes and that fund does well which also helps pay for social care programs.

          I mean I guess at some time in the past. I watched a pretty in depth video on Norway’s sovereign wealth fund last year I kinda remember. Generally the concept of a government and taxes isn’t too complex and is taught in school.
