Europe is a museum, the countries there have high unemployment and high taxes. In the UK you can purchase most goods with the same number of currency units as dollars, the only problem is the pound trades at 1.65 dollars to the pound.

The prescription you are talking about will lead to a nation of dependents that would rather take their hand out from the government than work. In the US our welfare system has created a dependent class that does not know how to or want to work.

I prefer minimal government and minimal gov't intrusion into my life where personal responsibility for ones actions and one's well being are required. We do not have it here and we may never. But I like the system we have better than the alternatives you espouse.
