We'd be idiots not to criticize our respective countries when criticism is due, but to call welfare states automatic failures (and thus these countries "failed") is absurd.

That's true

It's not the prevailing feeling. The internet has the effect of amplifying sentiment to make it appear that it is more widespread than it is. Remember two weeks ago when Romney was absolutely, no question, hands down going to win that election?

We're going to see aftershocks like this for a little while. Despite prosestations to the contrary, the right is throwing a temper tanturm just like the left did in 2000. Things will calm down soon enough.

Thats OK, the distraction of the run up to mid terms must be kicking in soon.
