That's what I was thinking.
EonBlue -- I know that the term "welfare state" refers to a government's strategy on funding social programs. But you call someone's country a welfare state and most average people are going to equate it with having a lot of lazy people sucking the welfare teet.
Maybe it's best to clarify your precise meaning when labeling countries as such?
I don't know, just thinking out loud here. :D
