Right-wing populism in the Western world is generally associated with ideologies such as anti-environmentalism, anti-globalization, nativism, and protectionism. In Europe, the term is often used to describe groups, politicians, and political parties generally known for their opposition to immigration, especially from the Muslim world, and for Euroscepticism. Right-wing populists may support expanding the welfare state, but only for those they deem fit to receive it; this concept has been referred to as “welfare chauvinism”.
Right-wing populists and welfare chauvinism:
According to welfare chauvinists, the safety nets of the welfare state are for those whom they believe belong in the community. By the right-wing populist standard, affiliations with society are based in national, cultural and ethnic or racial aspects. Considered to be included in the category are those that are regarded as nourishing. The debilitating group (primarily immigrants) is considered to be outside of society and to be unjustly utilizing the welfare system. In essence, welfare chauvinists consider immigration to be a drain on societal scarce resources. They believe these resources should be used for the ethnically homogeneous native population, preferably children and the elderly.
Ms. Cat’s Chronicles 
We must remember that all of the social ills that we want and try to correct are downstream from the diseased US Govt policies that protect the rich at the expense of the not-rich, the Entertainment Cartel tht promotes violence and sex, and the debilitating work environments that dehumanizes workers and uses them as “human resources”. Insofar as universal health care is concerned, if we institutionalize the BigPharma sick care system before overhauling that fraud-based science cartel, then we will end up codifying it, thereby converting patient to dependent slave. The sought after service is correct, but the medical system it protects and promotes is all wrong.
