Are ALL Liberals Socialists?

No. There are many people out there who claim to be liberals, who not only are NOT socialists, but who haven't the slightest idea what socialism IS! This is one of the biggest problems out there. I spend most of my days decrying our steady march toward socialism, and many of the people who read what I write also haven't the slightest idea of what socialism is! My own SISTER didn't know, until I explained it to her. Socialism is actually very simple: it is taking money and property from those capable and willing to earn their own way, and giving it, unearned, to those who don't, or won't. Now socialists will tell you confidently that socialism is a lot more complicated than that, but their efforts to "complicate it" are simply that: complicate it so you won't understand it. My mission here is to MAKE IT SIMPLE so it can be understood, not only by moderately intelligent people, but also by those of less-than-moderate intelligence. Elite liberals in Washington are socialists, no matter how much they deny it. Don't go by what they SAY, go by what they PROPOSE. Hillary, for example, speaks of TAKING from the "big oil companies" and using the money to "benefit the poor." What is that but socialism? Look at the many other things she proposes and where she expects to get the money. It's ALWAYS by "taking" it from "the rich" (Any "rich" but her or Bill, that is). She doesn't define what "rich" means, but I will, here. "The rich" are those who have more money than you do. To her, "rich" means those EARNING more than you do by their original ideas and hard work. It does not include people like Teddy Kennedy, who INHERITED his wealth, and doesn't really "earn" much money outside of his handsome Senate salary. So basically, she wants to take away people's EARNINGS and give that taken (stolen) to people who do NOT earn. That's socialism, whatever name you give it. It has had many names; among them socialism, communism, Fascism, etc. All are slightly different forms of COLLECTIVISM. Socialism is the best-known form of collectivism, but ALL include TAKING from those who EARN, and GIVING to those who DON'T, in order to gain their SUPPORT so they (the socialists) can gain, or retain POWER.
