What is not a function of a Welfare State ?

  • A.To meet the needs of the disadvantaged population.
  • B.To bridge the gap between the poor and the rich.
  • C.To cater to the materialistic needs of the population.
  • D.To provide specific services on subsidised basis in the area of health and education.

Answer: C

Catering to the materialistic needs of the population is not a function of a welfare state. A welfare state looks after the needs of disadvantaged people, narrows the gap between the poor and the rich, and provides services like health and education at subsidised prices, but it does not try to meet the materialistic wants of the whole population.

The other three statements each describe a function that the state takes on, so each is a function and not the answer to a question that asks what is not.
