Rant
One of the possible consequences of the welfare state is the lack of culture of the effort. Everything is easy and free.
A clear example is the university (at least in Spain), it's very easy to get to college (both financially and academically),
but since it is almost free it is not given enough importance: it's OK if I spend the day lying on the grass or don't
go to class or I just left college because the cost is zero.

Just see the last few years in Spain, the real estate boom is the best example of the lack of the culture of effort.
