Good. I see nothing wrong with taking welfare money to pay obligations that were welched upon.

SS is not welfare. You and I are paying into the system to pay for those on SS now - hopefully when we’re ready to receive SS there will be enough people working to pay for ours. OTOH I agree with what you’re saying - they incurred a debt that has to be paid back to those who advanced the money.

I don't either, but why does the Government get preferential treatment on obligations?

I’ve paid a goodly amount into Social Security, so I would hardly call it welfare money.
