Bill, generally liberals to not produce. They either work for the government or want something from the government. They will be in a field that offers questionable contribution to society. The "workhorses" in society is the middle class who go to work every day, pay the taxes that fund government and the programs liberals espouse. I believe the "liberal" democratic leadership have manipulated the tax code something awful in order to accomodate the fat cats who fund their political campaigns. Then they desire to tax the worker to the max so they can fund their "programs" which controls and supports their "underclass" constituency. We need a level playing field. Everyone should contribute effort and not just that hard working middle class. Frank

>>For example, as a liberal, why wouldn't you donate ALL of your earnings to social causes?<< Well, Bill, if I donated all of my money to the causes I believe in, then I would not have enough to eat, nor would I be able to keep a roof over my head. My daughter, my dog and I would be homeless. This would result in the loss of income I receive as a result of working, and then I would not only be unable to donate so much as a penny to the causes in which I believe, but would have rely on the charity of others in order to keep my daughter, my dog and I fed. One would think that a concept as simple as this would be evident to anyone with the mental capacity of a five year old. The fact that I have had to explain it to you is yet more proof of your complete inability to reason as a thinking adult. Rose
