Mick is correct though. Germany isn't a socialist state now and it wasn't under Hitler either...In Germany, the welfare state isn't a political football to the same degree as it is here in America -- allowing them to think straight.
But nevertheless -- these policies are labeled socialist by those that oppose them, and I would rather argue for the policies than dick around debating weather or not they are conservative or socialist.
Conservative welfare is welfare designed to keep society as it is. Compared to socialist welfare which has more of an equality goal in mind. That is all. But the German state started "conserving" their working class culture after WWII...unlike America. And we see the very different results for working people.
