Entitlements is the answer? How about give ever child $20 k and choice. Get rid of Randi and the Union. Entitlements are forever. We will end up with government at 40% of GDP. Growth 0. Everyone will pay. You are forewarned. Your view of everyday citizens ability is pathetic. They and we are better.

40% is about the average in Europe. Where it gets significantly higher, growth tends to be a little slower but I don't think Scandinavia has anything to envy the US for nonetheless.....the people live exceedingly well and are happier than most.
