I think their point is that this is not why "the little people" votes for socialism.

That being said they use it to tarnish the reputation of idealists as populists trying to grab the vote by offering free stuff.

I mean this isn't untrue but I think the real message should be that capitalism isn't oriented on human happiness and the rules of money need to be controlled by the will of the people.
