vitally, all the selected countries spend a *lot* more as a % of GDP on children and families than the US. all but one spend at least 1% of their GDP on child and family cash benefits; the US, conversely, spends only 0.06%. this is starkly reflected in child poverty rates.

the US also spends less as a % of GDP on sickness, injury, and disability benefits than every other country on the list, though recent levels of spending in ireland and the czech republic are relatively close. across countries, most of this spending is distributed as cash aid.
