Shame
Somebody remind me, What, exactly, is liberal about today's "liberalism"?
By any coherent meaning of the term, it's not liberalism at all. What the left wants is to centralize power in a redistributional mega-state.
Nobody is supposed to notice that such redistribution requires an enormous, many-pronged apparatus of enforcement -- a vast expansion of government power which then can be used for all kinds of things.
The inevitable result is a host of Federal agencies (e.g., IRS, DEA, FBI, EPA, etc., etc., etc.) that can, if they decide to, devastate you financially, ruin your business, wreck your marriage, seize your home and property -- destroy you and your life from top to bottom.
There is nothing liberal about today's "liberalism." To give it that name is a perversion of language.
