For the last decade we observe many interventions in the United States and its economy. There were different grand programmes, like: Troubled Asset Relief Programm, Affordable Care Act, Quantitative Easing. They are the most discussed examples but there were many more... Not all of them were dedicated for the Wall Street, but a great amount of help is dedicated for High Street. If we examine more carefully the welfare spending during the last half century in the United States, the country has dramatically increased federal spending intended to fight the poverty. I guess that after the coronavirus pandemia the social help dedicated for the people in poverty and the unemployed will be even higher. Do you think that the help will be necessary for long and for many people and it moght change the nature of the country and it may become much more a 'welfare state'? May be finally the status of the United States will be much closer to the status of European countries than it used to be in the past?
