That is obviously not true. You don’t even define what a welfare state is or when a country stops being a welfare state.

- victorbjorklund 9mo agoLet’s take Poland. They are a welfare state. They don’t have open borders for illegals. Not sure what you are talking about. Let me guess you are American who never set foot in Poland and just assume it has open borders?
- lucb1e 9mo agoThis is just derailing the topic from a french office suite into some sort of political statement about immigration. Looking at this green account's other two comments, it's all troll...
- wtcactus 9mo agoCan you define it then? What point does it start and what point does it stop being a welfare state.
- victorbjorklund 9mo agoIt is a very abstract term. It is like ”democracy”. Yes, you can clearly say that North Korea is not a democracy. But US? Well, depends on who you ask. Same with welfare state. Which countries do you count as non-welfare states? And when do they stop being a welfare state? Let’s take Poland as an example. When do they stop being a welfare state? If they lower the unemployment payments, will they stop being a welfare state? And at what timescale do you think Poland will stop existing because of demographics?
