I'd say that's exactly what it is. Liberals suffer from class-envy.

Well, you can bet that the rich ones don't have it. Look at the Kennedys, the Clintons, the Kerrys...they certainly don't want THEIR wealth redisributed. So, I would say no, not all of them do.

Steal from the WORKERS to give to the LAZY.
This is America. Every able bodied person who CAN work should work. No more SS disability for the bums who CHOOSE to abuse drugs and alcohol either. I am sick of that.

No, it wouldn't be fair. Would it be fair for me to say that most conservatives want to steal from the poor to line the coffers of the rich? No, it wouldn't--so I won't. It's more complicated than than. Don't overgeneralize, It doesn't become you.

Taxing capital gains and inherited wealth higher than working wages is fair an in ownership economy where labor wages doesn't justify the payment from owners.

I think it would be more fair to say that they have the, "We're so much smarter than thou" complex.
They want to solve the worlds problems by taking everyone else's money, whereas Conservatives would rather give by their own free will.

Yes. Don't forget to prance around like a little fairy and wear tights.

They also tax the middle class.

Yes, punish the successful and reward the lazy.

Sounds okay to me.. at least they think about and recognize that there is poor.. the cons are so busy counting their cash and giving orders to their illegal alien housekeepers and yard boys that they don't think about sharing anything.
