I am genuinely curious, so please be honest.
Does anybody know that modern liberals in the United States are absolutely not liberals?
A liberal is a rational person who believes in natural rights and a free economy.
A liberal is one who would advocate less government control of people's income, business ventures, reproduction and even smoking one thing or another.
Liberty is a natural state. Government does not provide liberty. Government is a necessary evil that should be prevented from taking liberty willy-nilly.
Many Republicans prefer to forfeit liberty to make the country look and act in ways they are comfortable with and Democrats, generally mislabeled as 'liberals', are downright abusive of the natural rights of citizens, except when it comes to abortion or pot.
Had anybody heard of classical liberals before and does anybody else cringe when they hear anti-liberty zealots referred to as 'liberals'?

"These emergency camps that FEMA is building around the country are not for emergencies. These are Interrment Camps (concentration camps) where the Government intends to depopulate the US. "
Woohoo. Break out the tinfoil hats.
Sorry shinji. I find you to be irrational and paranoid in the extreme. Please don't sever any of your own limbs to get the RFID chips out. Try to relax.
