^ Nailed it. But Wilson would not even necessarily support something like Medicare. His progressivism was structural, not egalitarian. He was an authoritarian modernizer, not a welfare Statist.

You could say the same thing about Teddy Roosevelt, William H. Taft, and yes dare I say it Franklin D. Roosevelt.  Really, I think it's safe to say that NONE of our presidents were very egalitarian, just saying.
