Welfare Capitalism is not a proper term - please let me explain[edit]
Welfare capitalism is an invented term. It has little real meaning.
The definition refers to capitalism with the benefits provided by employers to employees during there employment.
This is a nonense because capitalism requires employers to compete for their employees and one way they do this is to offer incentives as benefits.
Pure capitalism already includes employee benefits. Capitalism also requires companies to ensure the staff are well motivated, healthy, fit and financially secure. Over time, if the goverment has not provided welfare then responsible companies have provided welfare. The amount of welfare provision by each party depends on what the other party is providing. It only a matter of degree.
Its like saying this is a car, and then we have a subset called cars with wheels. But all cars have wheels already.
Please let me know if this is not clear.
Thank you
What I am proposing here is that it should be a subcatagory or an associated variable ? Any thoughts ? - 18:54, January 1, 2016 People1750 talk contribs
Article is too US-centric[edit]
"Anti-unionism" has its own header, but it's not a global concept to Welfare Capitalism and only a more American one, which is already mentioned under "In the United States" and therefore "Anti-unionism" shouldn't have its own header, in the text under it, all sources under "Anti-unionism" are US-centric.
under the "Efficacy" header, once again, it's too US centric. why isn't eg. the HDI or efficacy of European Welfare Capitalist nations healthcare systems/welfare systems mentioned? 80.221.75.122 (talk) 21:16, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
