All western countries are marketed in this fashion.

By NGOs typically, yes. In this case however it's a Government website doing it.

Yes, but usually not openly by their own government.

The swedes didn't burn witches, they tied them to a stake in the sea at low tide. Pretty brutal.

I'm slow to catch on. I never realized the welfare state is part of a calculated strategy to destroy the country. I never approved of it, and could see the damage it does to people, but always justified it as misguided do-goods. I forgive myself only because never in a million years could I have imagined western nations going along with the kind of mass illegal and legal immigration we see today. They are going out of their ways to bring in a certain kind of intentional person.

I don't think you're slow, it's just running counter to everything we're taught growing up. Welfare states exist because otherwise who would feed the starving, end of debate.

Now that I've seen and heard more, especially from history, I know how they're primarily a control mechanism. For someone dependent on welfare, the concept of anyone other than the most "generous" rulers getting into power is legitimately terrifying. It's an incredible incentive to create thousands of loyal supporters while painting yourself as simply being generous.

It's not even a new tactic, it's at least as old as ancient Rome. In the US it dates back to corrupt bostonian and new yorker political institutions preying on poor migrants and encouraging mass migration to grow their powerbase. In Germany Bismark deliberately grew their welfare state to create loyalty to the government and undercut the socialists. Now every country's doing it and even worse, it's too late to stop: Too many people are dependent on it to ever wind it down democratically, so the only other option is to wait for collapse.

The same thing is happening in South America in regards to the US. Except, here the government has private entities do the advertisement. And lets also talk about the H1B visas being used to replace American workers, how Obama by EO allowed spouses of H1B holders also work effectively doubling the number of visas and how the H1B is being used as a route to citizenship. As far as I can tell, Trump has done nothing but beat his pots of campaign promises about immigration.
