I the sense that there are many social programs I believe should be the responsibility of the government, yes. I guess Social Democrat might be the closest definition, even though that is so rarely used a phrase here in the US. I believe it it the responsibility of the government to do for people what they cannot do for themselves.

@emiliya Because this is the real world, not some fantasy-land. Any social community requires a joint effort.
