I disagree with this statement. Every single liberal I know enjoys being envied and actually desires to be envied by all. They are nothing if not show offs who want to put other people in their place( which is beneath the liberal)
IMO- they enjoy creating a state in which they are envied and they know it, yet can somehow blame other people for the envy, and make it appear as thou they don't like it or don't desire it- it isn't cool you know, to be envied- but it what liberals and socialists most enjoy in life.
