> mild policies are all sensible, like expanded unemployment insurance and Earned Income Tax Credit

And what about for the rest of the world? What do you do with all the people in middle income countries that don't have an economic and tax structure like the US?

If you read the article lots of these policies originate or are modeled after other countries policies. The us isn’t exactly a shining beacon welfare state.

Sorry, I've spent more than two decades living in mostly developing countries. I don't see much here from or for the 75% of the world population that lives in middle income countries that are trying to achieve high income status.
