JF, > So liberals "elitists" have never, for example, raised taxes on the wealthy and passed social programs?

Liberal elitists will never tax themselves or otherwise force themselves to sacrifice beyond their level of comfort. They've already made theirs.

How else do you think Arianna Huffington pays fewer income taxes than the average Californian, for instance?

It is obvious to me that the policies of the liberal elite will ensure that the liberal elite remains an exclusive club, and that the rest of society will forever be dependent on their handouts.

You could probably argue something similar with regard to conservative elitists, but at least you know what they believe. You just have to trust that the power of the individual surpasses the control the wealthy conservative elitists have. Not so with the "Great Society" the liberal elitists believe in.

P.S. - If this is still "inscrutable" to you, then just answer for me how George Soros can get away (morally) with spending millions on his pet 527 even after pushing for campaign finance reform.
