Which of these is a government program that could provide you with an income when you retire?

A. Social Security

Social Security is a government program designed to provide financial support to individuals when they retire, as well as to disabled individuals and survivors of deceased workers. While a 401(k) and Roth IRA are retirement accounts that depend on individual contributions and investments, Social Security offers a guaranteed income based on your earnings history. Medicare, on the other hand, is a healthcare program for retirees, not an income program.
