The same shock. Four lives. Who gets caught by the safety net?
A missed pay packet. A clinic bill. Care that cannot wait. Step into four lives, follow how wealth accumulates, then discover why a majority wanting protection may still struggle to secure it. Test rival explanations and inspect real evidence from Sweden, the United States and Brazil.
No advance reading. Concepts, model rules and dated country evidence are supplied.
Assess an explicit mechanism, accurate measures, relevant comparisons, a fair rival, evidence-based revision and the limits of inference. Completion checks presence and length, not argument quality or preferred policy.

Keep the claim within the evidence.
Households, wealth trajectories, voting and coalition rules are simplified fictional teaching models. Country evidence is frozen at 2024 and uses separately ranked income and net-wealth distributions. The comparison does not identify the causal effect of welfare policies.
