Answer:

The correct answer is "True".

Step-by-step explanation:

Entitlement Programs of the federal government include Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, Unemployment and Welfare Programs. Entitlement programs are rights granted to citizens and certain non-citizens by federal law. Welfare programs such as SNAP (food stamps) or pell grants are an example of this kind of entitlement. The Social Security Retirement Program is an example of a contributory program. Payroll taxes are paid into the program during a person’s working years and benefits are paid out monthly during retirement years based on a formula driven on total contributions made to the program.
