Why are liberals anti US, Anti christian, are into wealth redistribution, and are negative people?

Answer 1

In my exposure to "liberals" I have found a few who are genuinely nice people. Who have come to a few conclusions that aren't all that well thought out (of course in my opinion).

1. Wealth Redistribution goes against what this country was founded on. It limits (not necesarrilly takes away) the incentive to work. If you were poor and wealth was given to you and you didn't have to work for it would you go to work again? If you were rich and what ever you made in excess of the redistribution was going to be taken why would you work any harder. Liberals see wealth redistribution as a way to equalize things and "make everyone better off" this goes against our Bill of Rights that allows for greater good as long as the individual is not harmed.

2. Liberals aren't necessarilly Anti Christian. I think that they look at any organized structure i.e. corporations, churches, as reasons for things being the way they are and that they are responsible for many injustices.

3. Liberals would be viewed and labeled anti US because some of their thinking would have us give up some of the strength that our nation has achieved. The problem is that if we did step down there would be a vacuum creating left that would be filled by some other country who may not have our best interests at heart( thus labeled anti-US).

4. Negative people? This lable may be due to the way they look at the problems around us. They may reach the conclusion that the poor are their and need help by mandating transfer payments to solve the inequality, which is taking from others to give to those with less. A different more positive approach might be to help them with job training or counselling to help their situation not just fufilling their economic problems.

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

I'm a liberal, and I wouldn't say I'm any of those things, except perhaps wealth redistribution, to a certain extent. I'm not anti-U.S., I just oppose certain U.S. policies that are current.

I'm not anti-Christian, but I do believe in a separation between church and state... after all, the pilgrims left Europe to escape religious persecution. If our government espouses and particular religion or enacts any legislation with religious influence, can't that be considered religious persecution as well?

In fact, I agree with most of Christ's core teachings -- acceptance, redemption, and helping those in worse positions than ourselves. I would hardly say that conservatives particularly attach themselves to those values.

As far as wealth redistribution, I am entirely in support of the capitalist system and in people earning wealth relative to their efforts, but I also believe that some people have more money than they need. I understand wanting to live well and have some money left over for your children, but their are people in the US who have enough money for 10 generations to do no work at all. Warren Buffet, perhaps summed it up best when he said in a recent interview about why he was giving away his money, "I am not an enthusiast of dynastic wealth, particularly when the alternative is six billion people having that much poorer hands in life than we have, having a chance to benefit from the money." He also said that he was leaving his children enough money to do what they want, but not enough to do nothing. I believe in that sort of redistribution.

In fact, isn't it a Christian value to give money to the poor?

And I'm most certainly not a negative person.

Why do Nascar Christians consider questioning authority as Anti-American? Why are Right-wing wackos the most hateful while preaching Christianity. Jesus said to give up your possessions and feed the poor. That verse gets left out by Nascar Christians . Rush Limbaugh talks about druggies while he's getting high and taking other people's Viagra seeking under-age children to play with. Regarding wealth distribution, you have to stop re-hashing what O Reily says. I saw that show today. Oh yeah O Reily settled a sexual harrasment suit where he was alleged to talk dirty to his co-worker while pleasuring himself with a dildo. Nice Christian Man. We aren't negative. We simply refuse to remain silent when hypocrisy rears it's ugly head

Answer 4

we are not.

Your question is a waste of time.

your question is like the lyrics to the fresh prince.....a waste......wait the fresh prince lyrics are actually more valuable.......



Now this is the story all about how,
My life got flipped, turned upside down,
And I'd like to take a minute, just sit right there,
I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel Air.

In West Philadelphia I was born and raised
On the playground is where I spent most of my days.
Chillin' out, maxin', relaxin all cool,
And all shootin' some b-ball outside of the school.

When a couple of guys who were up to no good,
Started makin' trouble in my neighborhood.
I got in one little fight and my mom got scared,
And said "You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in bel Air."

I whistled for a cab, and when it came near,
The license plate said "fresh" and it had dice in the mirror.
If anything I could say that this cat was rare,
But I thought "Nah forget it, Yo home to Bel Air."

I pulled up to the house about seven or eight,
and I yelled to the cabby "Yo homes, smell ya later."
Looked at my kingdom, I was finally there,
To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel Air.


See you get a worthless answer to a worthless question.

Answer 5

Why are people like you into making pathetic insults disguised as so-called "questions" and try to paint progressive liberals as the enemy that is a "bigger threat to America than Al-Qaeda is." Last I checked, we believe in something more American than any apple pie is, and that is "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness." You die-hard conservatives need to get your heads out of your ***** and grow a heart.

Answer 6

I would love to ream the Right in the same way I am reaming the left. Somebody PLEASE ask the same question about the Right.

Comunism and Socialism take the view that people cannot be trusted. This innate distrust of human spirit is a founding block of so called liberal politics today. The Populist movement which gave birth to the liberal core ideals instead trusted people and believed in them. It was the Comunist and Socialist influences which soured the core outlook on humanity.

Example, who wants to ban guns, smoking, weed, and a zillion other things. The Left is wants to ban everything. Except for the Bush administration using the "war on drugs" as an excuse to trample states rights in possession laws it has been the Left who proposed just about every law banning something in recent times.

Economically if you cannot ban it just take enough out in taxes and people cannot afford unsanctioned activities. That tactic is quite effective. Taxing items for so called environmental reasons, in reality it has no real improvement in the environment but does do things like take cars away from the poor or put them in jail for the sin of not being able to afford the shiny new car compact car everybody must drive to satisfy the Left.

Conformism is the hallmark of the insecure. Left tactics are a play on insecurity. People feel inconfident in the ability to defend themselves and seek to "disarm" others around them. In reality that just makes them more vulnerable but the Left plays on these fears. It seeks to make everyone the same by forcing choice out of the market. People are pushed to drive the same cars reguardless of whether it fits thier lifestyle. The "environmental" reason this is hid behind is actually meaningless. Many SUV drivers for example have really good reasons why they drive and SUV. Switching to a compact would actually force a loss in activities or cause them to use MORE gas. The fundemental logic is a throwback to the luxory cars of the 70s and hasn't been updated since while society has long since left the 70s.

The Anti-Christain aspect comes from two sources. The first being the influx of the Comunists into the Democraptic party in the 40s and 50s. The USSR discredited Comunism to such a point the Comunist party failed. Stalin's genocide was still unknown at this point to most people. However the tyranny of the USSR was loud and clear to anybody who looked. As such the US comunist party collapsed. The Democraps had the more compatable view at the time and that is where Comunists went. They didn't give up on the ideas however. One of the key fundementals of Comunism is that religion is evil. Comunist influences teamed with Jews and Athiests to combat Christian influences in the US. Pagens, Satinists, and Islamics quickly signed aboard. Remember even as late as the 50s if you were not Christian in the US you often faced real discrimanation. A Black Muslim took a double whammy in this area. Christians quickly so the hypocracy of the distcrimanation once pointed out to them though some strongholds exist even today.

At this same time the Catholic church which was predomiently made up by Irish, Italian, Hispanic and French descendents at the time was strongly Democrap at the time. All of these groups still stung from WASP discrimanation and were more than happy to see WASP causes attacked. When the attacks became strongly biased against ANY Christianity and started becoming discrimanation in thier own right many Catholic and previously Democraptic groups were forced into Repugnican camps. The WASPs now feeling under siege started getting politically active and organizing along religious boundries. Surprisingly the Jewish leadership remained steadfast Democraptic despite a large swing in non-enclave Jewish opinion away from the Democraptic party.

So today you see a counter reaction to the Christian reaction to the attacks on Christianity. The "religious" Right has been given a great deal of media in an attempt to discredit and to the dismay of the media it actually increased membership despite some of the Religious Right's lunacy. Democraps underestimated faith values and the reaction of people who not only did not ditch religion but embraced it even tighter when somebody tried to literally rip it from them.

This lack of touch with people is a hallmark of the Left. A defining condition that has sabataged many of thier efforts even on causes where they had very good reason to step up the far Left has managed to be even more insane than the far Right. So instead of reason and logic we've gotten emotional tantrums from both sides. The Right has been more than happy to inject a trace of reasonableness anytime they see the far Left swinging too far out from reality. This seeming comprimise has consistantly won over middle of the road voters over the years. In a way this makes the Right a little more sinister. The Left I think honestly believes the people would be happy in the sanitarium they are trying to build. The Right knowingly uses reality when it suits thier needs to keep thier money lines open.

Anyway, the Left clearly has an extreme anti-Christian bent. So much so you could literally call the Left at war with Christianity. The Right isn't doing Christianity any favors but it's not actively hunting any sign of Christianity and trying to obliterate it.

The idea of wealth distrabution has always had appeal for the desperate. When you have nothing being the lowest common denominator doesn't seem that bad. The reality is that wealth redistribution is to accuse all people of being unworthy of wealth. It is to doom all but a new form of elite to a lifetime of economic slavery. It is also to destroy incentive and inovation. The core motivation for both is wealth accumulation. Without wealth accumulation what motivation? How does one avoid a lifetime of work in a field they dislike? The unambitious are the people to which such systems appeal. Those insecure in thier ability to ever aquire wealth. The right has no answers for this as they encourage wealth accumulation for the sake of accumulation.

As for negitive people. Think about it. If your core views are that people not to be trusted and you do not believe yourself capable of fending for yourself economically or physically. Would that not provide a rather negitive view of the world? For most on the far Left that view is what attracts them to the Left not the reverse. Being "Liberal" doesn't make one negitive, being negitive is what makes one "Liberal".

Answer 7

You've fallen into the trap of trying to classify party lines.

Most mainstream voters agree with more than one political party on various issues. I'm a republican, but giving into slanderous remarks is not something either side should be a part of...

Answer 8

liberals see the abuses of power with out checks and balances. the idea is to continually check the powers that be and remove their ability to control so that its never abused to the point of Hitler pol pock.. North Korea.. the only thing they forgot is to check them selves for the same failings in all men/women. Everything needs a check and balance.

Answer 9

Why do you stereotype?

Both sides have there good and bad. The same could be said as to why conservatives are intolerant, bigots and materialistic?

I don't believe that about conservatives, nor do I believe that about liberals....

Answer 10

Why are you trying to divide this country? It's One nation under God, indivisible.. and United we stand; Divided we fall. Your trash talk is unpatriotic and repulsive. I am a loyal Dem whose ancestors fought for your freedom. And I have a son in Iraq.
