Describe the perfect government, the perfect educational system, the best national defense system, the most fair tax system, the qualities that make up the best citizen. This can take a little thought and time, but so far, I have never known a liberal capable of expressing these thoughts.
I'm not a liberal, but I've heard enough from them to give a pretty precise answer to this:
1) Government: Simple an all powerful nanny government run by a single political party which controls its citizens lives from the cradle to the grave.
2) Education: A monolithic system that supports and defends the type of government listed in #1. Education comes second to indoctrination.
3) National Defense: National defense will not exist as we know it today as Liberals believe that nations are an archaic social construct that need to be abolished. Any armed forces that exist will be used to keep the populace in line ala Waco, Ruby Ridge and El Dorado TX.
4) Fairest Tax System: Liberals don't believe in "fair taxes" period. Their idea of a fair tax system is one that punishes the economy's achievers. The more you make, the more they'll take! (It basis can be found in The Communist Manifesto)
5)The best qualities for a Citizen: This question itself is evidence of how pervasive the neo-marxist mind set is in modern society! It implies that the citizen should seek to ingratiate themselves to the government rather than the other way around. We've gone from a
"Government of the people, by the people and for the people" to
people of the government, by the government and for the government! -Possum
