Joe gets up in the morning facing the reality that he must trudge off
to another hopeless day at a mundane job with no hope of pursuing any
personal ambition with his employer since he is an involuntary member
of the union that diligently guards against his ambition. He has
liberals to thank for the knowledge that at least that he has a job
waiting for him every day...maybe, and that he can blithely tend to
his work as a member of the collective. He can thank the union gods
that he is the quintessential nowhere man.

Joe can thank liberals for closely monitoring how he thinks about
others and for facing the prospect that he could be personally brought
up on charges if he were to express sentiments in public that were
deemed to be intolerant. He can thank liberals for helping to shape
and mold his behavior through the use of these legislated behavioral
controls.

Joe can thank liberals that he does not have to bear the
responsibility of ownership of personal property. Joe has the
priviliged use ofany property in his active control, and this at his
discretion for the most part, until such time as the state requires
his personal property for its own purposes. When the state decides to
expropriate the property in Joe's control, Joe does not have to
concern himself with legal recourse to protect any percieved personal
right to that property, as any legal recourse has been quashed by the
highest of federal courts.

Joe can thank liberals that the elementary education professionals
that dedicate their time to instruct his children while he and his
wife are toiling under the beneficence of the union are also united in
solidarity under the auspices of their own union. As unions tend to
favor collectivism and the collective interest, Joe can rest assured
that his children will enjoy a political indoctrination in state
schools, where the union is entrenched, that will help to reinforce,
however sutble, the collective ambition of the union. In time his
children will be at an age where they can elect to vote, and do so
with the pubescent prejudices instilled in them by a liberal
education, with a full appreciation for collectivism and socialism.

Joe can thank liberals that his children are eligible for welfare
assistance programs for the young, programs that help provide vital,
healty food stuffs and health care. For Joe this state assistance is
welcome as it helps to offset the personal property that is taken from
Joe every week in the form of state and federal taxes (and union
dues). Since Joe and his wife had elected to enroll their children in
these programs, the state has a personal investment in Joe's children,
an investment using what had been property in Joe's personal care. As
the program agencies are then surrogates for Joe's children, the
agencies can hold Joe responsible for how Joe raises his children. If
one of Joe's children should develop slowly (as some children are
prone to do), the state can take Joe and his wife to task for the
child's improper development. Further, the state can take it upon
itself to 'aid' in the child's 'arrested' development to help the
child meet the standard for the age group. In extreme cases, the
state holds the right to remove the child from Joe's care, relieving
him of the privilege of raising the child.

Joe and his wife can take heart in the fact that the liberal state is
watching (out for) his family and children.

[More to follow when time permits.]

That was well said. Those liberals are some lucky folks. They get
everything they want.

All decisions, even those made by liberals, are the result of binary thinking.
