Matt Damon's Bad Acting Job For the Welfare State

The Boston Herald has a letter to the editor concerning Matt Damon:
While it’s understandable why Damon would support programs like these, does he also support the redundancy, overlap and duplication of 200 bureaucracies to alleviate unemployment? Or the 68 overlapping bureaucracies for childhood nutrition? Or buildings filled with six-figure bureaucrats and their staffs, busily doing whatever they do to very little effect? Should we ignore the 30 percent of Medicare spending that’s lost to fraud?
Matt Damon has the haunting fear that somewhere, someone who is wealthy doesn't support the Welfare-Warfare state like he does.
