The much more relevant issue is people voting for systems that make the nickel the rule of the day. And in all fairness many of them are voting on other issues or are misled about the issues by the mainstream media. Or maybe families are just too busy and overworked and lack social support for childcare to have a chance to critically consider the system. In the end most people aren't bad, they're just people trying to survive as best they can. So perhaps the anger is misplaced.
But without anger you only have despair, and at least with anger you get heard.
Always be wary of such systems, for the devil is in the details. You may save a nickel, but in the process cost society as a whole $0.50.
