I think the liberal base is primed to ‘sacrifice for the common good’.
Voltaire said, “Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.”

Like heck. To them getting a 47” plasma rather than a 54” plasma with their welfare check is a MAJOR sacrifice....just as settling for a 36 foot Winnebago rather than a 42 foot Winnebago is a MAJOR sacrifice for our side, should our welfare (i.e., Social Security) get means-tested.
That’s why it’s no-win. No one will give up their goodies.
