So many platitudes floating around... "the welfare state goes against math," "this is how you get 'free shit,'" etc.
But at some point when income inequality becomes ever greater and living standards for the average worker have been stagnant literally for decades, you DO have to do something about it. There is nothing magical about free markets.
