It is liberalism that has improved the lot of everyone in this society. Food safety...liberals. Public education...liberals. What financial regulation there WAS...liberals. Social Security...liberals. Medicare...liberals. FEMA...liberals. Worker Safety...liberals. You are free to opt out of all of it. But, who knows? You might need some liberal help down the line. The 2012 elections will not solve your problems.
