The USA is still pretty low in terms of social welfare spending (as % of GDP). #1 in military spending. Woo.
66% of the budget is spent on entitlements. How much more do you want them to spend? What nations? I don't care about the ones smaller than NYC. Any nations with over 300mil people? Our poor live like kings compared to the poor in say Mexico.
Are entitlements part of social welfare? I never said to spend more. I asked you what nations you think spend the right amount of money on entitlements. It's an open ended question. Our poor do live better than in Mexico. That is a good thing. If our poor lived the best lives on earth compared to other countries' poor, I would be super proud of that.
