I mean, that's the best the West has got. Everywhere else, social security is considerably worse and means-tested. Plus, both have got right-wing governments that aren't exactly fans of social security: the last right-wing Finnish government introduced an ”activation” system for unemployment which was so bureaucratic a lot of people's benefits were cut for not being able to jump through arbitary hoops, and they're bringing a similar system back, as well as cutting many, more focused benefits. What @[email protected] said also applies here, since the whole welfare state only exists due to the CIA funding social democrats during the Cold War as a counter to socialism.
