"My question is, given that France has some of the most liberal social programs in Europe, what do they expect from France? Free health care.. subsidized housing.. official minimum wage of $1200 per month.." Not for immigrants. For example no work, no pension, no health insurance. "So does that mean the US is a "powder keg"? Or might it mean that the more you attempt to buy political loyalty from society with a socialize welfare state, the more they are going to expect and demand from the state, even if via violent means." Try to figure it out for your self by breaking out of your either or mentality.
