One reason that public education and health care are widely aproved in Europe is because of the homogenius nation states we use to have.

I dont think you can take that same model to the US and the model is living its final days in Europe also.
There are studies about this, the more diverse the popultation gets there is less will for public funding of anything.

Because of the changing demographics with aging population and dissolving of the nation states, the public funding is coming to end in Europe also.

Im personally ready to continue Finnish public education and health care in principal.
I see them also an investment that saves or produces, but lot of the byrocracy have to be dissolved.

Other parts of the welfare state are something mostly we cant afford in the future.
The large byrocracy of pencil pushers dont produce anything, the large group of welfare leeches sucks the help from those that really need it etc..

After cutting these away i would make the focus of public funding to support and encourage working families to have more children, that would also be an investment to our future and money well spent.
