I'd be willing to give up unemployment since I haven't paid much into it. However, since the government has been confiscating some 12% of my salary for 35 years, that's a substantial amount of money that I will not give up. Bumping eligibility requirements a few years as has been proposed to keep Social Security funded would not bother me.
Medicare, again, some 3% of my pay over 35 years, so no, I'm not giving that up.
