The future is not of your kind. Overwhelmingly, worldwide, there is a rejection of that to which you aspire, whatever it is, as evidenced by the words you wrote above. Modern nations are liberal because humans evolve beyond the survival of the fittest thought process to which you subscribe. Where might Europe be today had the United States been committing resources to making life easy for those who don't want to work "quite so hard", rather than building a massive military machine? Ultimately, this is what we're talking about. The United States has made huge sacrifices for the benefit of the rest of the world, and it seems apparent that you are totally blind to this fact. The arrogance of liberals knows no bounds. Most conservatives believe in altruism just as strongly as you do, probably moreso. We just don't believe that you help people out by confiscating the money of one class of person and giving it to another. This serves only to make the weak more reliant on the not-so-weak. You over-simplify these issues to the point where they are unrecognizable.
