Shock Report: US Spends 30 Times More on Welfare Benefits Per Person Than Communist ChinaPosted by Jim Hoft on Wednesday, October 22, 2014, 9:23 AM China still has its problems, but while the US is moving more and more towards a welfare state, China is moving more and more towards prosperity. Deng (Xiaoping) rejected any possibility of importing the welfare state into China. He insisted that the enhancement of welfare should be coordinated with the development of production. Other Chinese leaders have reiterated Deng’s approach. Today China’s welfare spending is low but it is increasing. According to the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security of the People’s Republic of China, the total amount of outflows for China’s social programs in 2011 was $287 billion USD. On the other side of the Pacific, the US spent somewhere between $1.7 and $2.1 trillion USD in 2011 on health, welfare and pension (old age) benefits. www.thegatewaypundit.com/2014/10/shock-report-us-spends-30-times-more-on-welfare-benefits-than-communist-china/
Actually most were Marxists... but why quibble over semantics.
