Emne: Re: The Origins of Democracy and Welfare Capitalism

Übergeek 바둑이: Having lived in Canada, and having visited Europe many times I can say that the welfare state does lead to very high standards of living. Paying high taxes might be the drawback, but the quality of life seems to justify the taxation problem.

I dont think it does.... here in the US we already DO insure all of our citizens necessary health, education and social services

Nobody is asking to change that, but what advantage do we gain by moving much further into socialism?
