We’re spending just $592 per person on social welfare here in Rheinland, while our peers are spending over $1,053—meaning we’re 44% below the median of comparable countries. That’s not just neglect, it’s outright stinginess; we should be raising our spending to at least $1,000 per person so families aren’t left to scrape by while the rest of the world looks after their own.
