Actually it's not every man for himself. You see, America leads the world in charitable donations per capita. We believe in helping ourselves. We depend on each other. It is because our patriotism is so strong that we help each other ourselves without the intrusion of unwarranted government bureaucracy in the process.

It might sounds like an odd concept to those outside the US but it works for us.

It sounds odd indeed

I understand what you mean with the charitable donations... but isn't the risk of this sytem to just maintain a status quo and not proposing real solution ?

In this economical context, how many chances have poor people to reach higher social conditions ?

 

Here in Europe it is a bit a West vs East situation. People got mad when the Union send tons of money to the east (post-communist countries) but it worked. It created new markets and a new economical situation.

The US actually has better social mobility then Europe.

The way the system works in europe... it's more likely to create generational welfare.
