You missed the boat on manufacturing. The US (and most other countries) can't possibly hope to compete with the asian countries that do most of the manufacturing now.

As for welfare, there are plenty of nations with comparable or more welfare and are able to manage just fine. Just because you can't wrap your head around it, doesn't mean that it can't be done properly.
