Question

which philosophy did the social security act demonstrate?
○ government should take care of everyone regardless of their situation.
○ national disasters occur and the government should have plans ready.
○ government should help retirees, dependent mothers and children, and the disabled.
○ as people earn money they do not need to save for their retirement.

Explanation:

The Social Security Act was designed to provide assistance to specific groups: retirees, dependent mothers and children, and the disabled. The first option is too broad ("everyone regardless of situation" is not accurate as it's targeted). The second option is about national disasters, which is not related to Social Security. The fourth option is incorrect as Social Security is a form of support, not a reason to not save. So the correct one is the third option.

Answer:

C. Government should help retirees, dependent mothers and children, and the disabled.
