Answer:
The correct answer is: A. To provide the elderly with free health care
Explanation:
Medicare is an American Health Insurance program designed to guarantee free medical care for the elders, aged 65 and over, and some younger people with certain disabilities.
It was funded in 1966, under the SSA (Social Security Administration), but today works under the CMS (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services)
According to the Cambridge and Merriam-Webster dictionaries, a person who takes power by force and rules with total authority is a dictator. A dictator is not elected by the people, and extends his powers into the private lives of the people. He usually enjoys a cult of personality throughout the nation. An example of dictator would be Hitler in Germany between 1933 and 1945.
You should bear in mind that there are two other words which could fit this definiton, with some nuance:
- if this ruler uses its unlimited power unfairly and/or cruelly, it is a tyrant;
- if this ruler came to power through elections which he rigged, and simply rules without any political opposition, it is an autocrat.
