Myth of welfare state

Since the political independence what we are seeing in India is the “Great Society functions as a great boon and benefit to the poor; in reality, when we cut through the frothy appearances to the cold reality underneath, the poor are the major victims of the welfare state. The poor are the ones to be conscripted to fight and die at literally slave wages in the Great Society's imperial wars. The poor are the ones to lose their homes to the bulldozer of urban renewal”, (The Great Society: A Libertarian Critique by Murray N. Rothbard).
