Why do the governments of developed European countries practice high welfare?

There are four reasons why the developed countries in Europe implement high welfare:

Firstly, the industries and agriculture or services of the developed countries in Europe are at the top of the industrial chain in the world (plundering the primitive capital accumulated in Asia, Africa and Latin America for hundreds of years, and the technological superiority accumulated by their own countries after two hundred years of development), and they possess the high profits that are difficult for other countries to rival; this is the economic basis for the implementation of high welfare in the European countries.

Secondly, the developed countries in Europe are democracies with elected governments. In order for politicians to come to power, the implementation of high welfare is the most effective means to please the voters.

Thirdly, the political systems of developed European countries are based on the foundation of government of the people, by the people and for the people. The meaning of the existence of government is to serve the people. And it is one of the functions of the government to provide high welfare (livelihood, health care, and education security) to the people.

Fourth, developed countries in Europe have, historically, a tradition of high welfare. For example, France has let its people enjoy the dividends of its foreign wars since the Napoleonic era. Britain, on the other hand, has established a sound social welfare system since the 1830s.
