Yes, I think this post is so important. I see very little 'big picture' thinking on this forum.
Like-
if the general populace has no money, it creates a vicious cycle that stifles innovation. How can new companies and industries spring up and be profitable if they have no one to sell their products to?
And what do you think all of these people with no money are going to do? They aren't just going to roll over and die. You can expect crime to skyrocket if this continues. Eventually, revolution is where we are headed if this continues.
Ah, the “Give us free stuff or we’ll revolt” argument. I don’t think that will go like you’ve planned.

It’s always a classic.
The funny thing is, if there was political or societal unheaval and revolt, the United States has a lot to LOSE. It wouldn’t magically be some great reset that would return the country (in their minds) to the land of milk, golden honey, and lollipops.
The United States maintains a position of strength to punch above its weight. With wealth and stability lost, we would have to live beneath our means.

In the Game of Survival of the Fittest, there is no "Free Stuff", but rather might makes right.
A big example is our military. We do not have the biggest military in the world for nothing. might makes right.
Is it free stuff when a Lion takes down a wildebeest?
Sweet lists, not one country listed has zero poverty, unemployment, and homelessness like I specifically asked for.
Sad to say your copy and paste effort was done in vain.
Bottom line, every country on earth has unemployment, poverty, and homelessness. If it was such a big deal in America then surely the 1 million people who plan to get their green card every year, effectively becoming a full citizen, would cancel their application.
Wealth goes to those who create it. You don’t punish them for it.

Post Fail.
There are millions trying to get into Socialist Countries and Communist Countries as well.
I'll take your 1 million and raise you 2.85 million.
The number trying to break into Communist China for employment.
