The opposite of a welfare state is individual welfare. For the latter you need to bring up your children to be kind and thoughtful of others. For the former you need to convince your children that the state has a right to take your property if someone else is in need

I think it's obvious which method will bring up a caring society.

True but the kids will def need more than a kind heart and good intentions. Sound money for a start and no drugs (phones) until they are old enough to be responsible, independent humans. The latter is completely overlooked or disregarded so the kind kids are still slaves to the state in the end.

True. There are many things needed for a free society. That is why it's easy for a society to spiral into serfdom.

I was focusing on the OP points.

What's that saying? "Every successful marriage looks the same but every failed one is uniquely different". I've got that wrong but something like that.

Exactly.
