[af_vet_1981]

The U.S. is still a welfare state.

It helps when one uses the term as defined.

wel·fare state
/ˈwelfer ˌstāt/
noun
a system whereby the government undertakes to protect the health and well-being of its citizens, 
especially those in financial or social need, by means of grants, pensions, and other benefits. 
The foundations for the modern welfare state in the US 
were laid by the New Deal programs of President Franklin D. Roosevelt.

[Angelino97]

The U.S. is still a welfare state.

No foreign nation is giving welfare to the U.S. Certainly not Israel.

By contrast, Israel is taking welfare from the U.S.

For you to try and equate the U.S. and Israel as "welfare states" is both dishonest and pathetic.
