Liberals who created this country are the opposite of liberals today who want to return this country to a monarchy and elimination of the middle class

The use of the word “liberal” in Road to Serfdom was a cognitive dissonance nightmare...

The great majority of libs are probably like my three lib sisters who vote for Democrats because they're pro-abortion. They love all the benefits of capitalism. Two worked for a major corporation for many years allowing them to have total wealth over a million dollars something they could have only dreamed of growing up poor to lower-middle class in the fifties and sixties. All thanks to evil, white males (my sisters love to castigate) who created the corporations that made my sisters wealthy.

They have a belief common to many Dem voters that the economy and good things just happen to exist. Like most Dems, they have no understanding of how wealth is created. They are easily led by leftist Dem pols who keep wedge issues alive. i.e the Republican "war" on women. They gladly vote for people who would like to take their money away from them to turn the country into Western Sweden or Northern Mexico.
