I just wanted to touch on a few points. I am a liberal. In fact, I am so liberal, that I am close to being socialist. I believe in a single-payer National Health Care system for all people, because it can only benefit, even the least among us. We should all have access to medical care, because we all have the right to live.
I also believe in a reasonable national minimum wage in the amount of not less than $15.00 per hour. Not only would such guarantee such wage earners a bit more to live on, but it would also put more money into the economy, by allowing at least some disposable income.
I also believe we are put on this Earth to be of service to one another. To enrich oneself at the expense of others is simply not right. Pay your fair share of taxes; do not deny education or social programs to those unable to afford them. Treat others as you would wish to be treated.
I believe in education for all people. Other countries do it, so why can't we? If we had a system, such as what Denmark has in place, maybe we wouldn't have some of the ignorance from the other side, as we do. I believe that's what a big part of the problem is. Denmark is gung ho about people who come to their country to become citizens, getting a FREE education, and also three years of free language courses! Everyone should have that right.
I also want to stress that I respect everyone, no matter what their belief system is. I don't care if you're a Christian, Jewish, Muslin, atheist, or whatever. You are still a person. Liberals have compassion and empathy, and take the high road. To do otherwise is to deny your own humanity.
