Imagine the ideal socialist government...
worker protections
healthcare for all
heavy penalties on anyone who even says the word corporation
everyone's personal liberties individually affirmed by the state
Would that be enough to make libs happy? Would they bother to get up in the morning?

How grossly robotic. They're always complaining about Some policy being racist or unfair or whatever.
Let me tell you: my entire mother's side arrived here as underdogs [nearly refugees from Mao's rule] from China, and without the handicap and help of some stupid law meant to "help out the needy", they built themselves up and are now living in a 'posh' suburb with three businesses between them.

I'm sorry, but what part of "liberalism" don't you understand? Liberalism in this countrry is responsible for the following: Social Security; Medicare; publicly funded roads, schools, and infrastructure; Internet development; our amazing national park system; the expansion of the civil rights of women, gays, minorities, and the disabled; the expansion of workers rights with mandatory a minimum wage, occupational health and safety laws, the Family Medical Leave Act, school loan programs, publicly funded hospitals, etc., etc. Everything in this country that we call "progress" can be attributed to liberalism. It is what drives societies forward, not backwards. Republicans want to take us backwards - back to the 1950s, when women and minorities had fewer rights, back to a time when corporations could treat their workers any way they wanted and there would be no repercussions, and back when there were no social programs providing safety nets for those less fortunate. You've been brainwashed by the Rush Limbaugh crowd of hatemongers with your attitudes about liberalism. Get over it. If you truly cared about this country and ALL of its citizens, you would support liberalism because liberalism is a concept that we make changes that benefit society AS A WHOLE. Not just the rich. Not just the corporations. EVERYBODY. So get over it. The ultimate "collapse" of America will come at the hands of conservatives. And they are doing a great job so far.

No. If this were a socialist govt., they would be the ones running it. If they're in bed, they're screwing somebodies wife...or husband, .........and all of us! libs can't ever be happy. It's against their rules to be happy or content. They ALWAYS have to be spoiling everybody's fun but their own.
