Maybe it's best to clarify your precise meaning when labeling countries as such?

Fair enough.
And yes the US is also a welfare state it's just that Canada is more so and Europe even more.
Americans - and Canadians - would do well to look at the wall that the European countries are about to crash into and try to avoid the same fate.
