>>the inability of states in particular to fullfill their duty and obligation towards the social welfare of their citizens<<

You're missing the point - who decides what duties that states have towards their citizens? Seems to me that it's the states. Not Washington.

flatsville, no State Gooberment today can become a surrogate
family and provide men, women and children with all their needs.
There is n e v e r enough money for that.

Those needs that in the past 2000 years had been
provided by the nuclear family defined as a working
father, with a mother ( working or not working )
in a generally stable work environment.
From time to time a stable society gets knocked off by
Economic disasters, war etc.
Nobody can prevent these of course, except
the one that started these....Gooberment,

TA
