On a side note? What exactly does "welfare of the nation" mean?  As an individual, I am concerned about my welfare, my family's welfare, my friends welfare.... I even care about stranger's welfare. All of these are people.  I really don't care much for nations though. I don't see them doing much for the welfare of me, my family, or friends.  What I see nations do is bonb each other, which is very detrimental to the welfare of the individual.  I am fortunate that my nation has better bonbs than other nations. I don't deny that.
