Answer to Question 2

A welfare state is the set of insurance, regulation, and transfer programs operated by the government, including unemployment benefits, pensions, and government-run-and-financed health care. In the United States, for example, the welfare state comprises several programs, such as Medicaid and food stamps, which are targeted at the poor.
