The liberal mindset

Liberals are a knowing lot. They are completely self assured when dictating what kind of car you should drive, how much fat, salt and sugar you consume, preaching on the evils of tobacco (while quietly ignoring the use of pot) and pontificating on and attempting to regulate just about every facet of your life.

For you see, the great unwashed prolateriat needs an enlightened elite to guide them for which role liberals feel a unique qualification. Where does this smug self conceit emanate from? By and large I would say from an innate sense of inadequacy or conversely by an inflated sense of self worth. Contradictory you say? No, just different paths to the same end.

Liberals are not risk takers, instead they feed off of those who take risks and become successful demonizing them for their (in the liberal mindset) rapacity and servitude to capitalism. So the successful entrepreneur is equated with the Corsair with their wealth being ill-gotten and thus subject to the avaricious maw of the government. This is because liberals believe in doling out pieces of the economic pie in as equal slices as possible (by their calculation of course), for to them the pie is always a finite quantity, they never consider that the pie can expand.

Liberalism is the consequence of our school systems failure to teach basic math. Only in the Lefts fantasy land is governments confiscation of capital, and its redistrabution, understood as a good thing. Like the president said, "at some point you've made enough money". Although I've never heard him quantify how much is "enough". He certainly doesn't have a problem taking money from Wall Street "fat cats" to fund his elections.

In the end it will come down to the old maxim that "what can’t last, won't". Either through a peaceful transition of power from a tax and spend ideology to a more conservative pay as you go model (one that has yet to be adequately tried), or by a calamitous economic meltdown, the scales will be balanced whether we like it or not.

What can't last, won't.
