What would the world look like if we were all liberals?

I got to thinking the other day- what if we were all liberals? What would the world look like? Before you get riled up, read on.

What if all men were Bill Clinton?

We could talk up women's rights but in real life take advantage of young women, be sexual predators and serial harassers.

What if we were all Nancy Pelosi?

We could claim to support unions but we would use non-union labor. We could use our positions in government to help boost our net worths by 62% in the middle of a recession.

What if we all Tom Steyer?

We could claim to be all for green causes but make a billion dollars on coal.

What if we were all Al Gore?

We could sell books and make vast fortunes shrieking about global warming while we used ten times the electricity of normal people in our mansions and we could spew tons of pollutants into the atmosphere flying on private jets instead of flying commercial. And we could buy make believe idiocies such as "offsets."

What if we were all Barack Obama?

We could claim to support equal pay but in real life not pay women the same as we paid men. We could lie to everyone all the time while asserting that we are paragons of virtue. We could lament "dysfunction" in government and wealth inequality while charging $64,000 per couple for a "VIP Clutch" and mingling with the top 0.01% of wealth in the country in Hollywood, the bastion of reality. We could lament dysfunction while being the cause of it. We could make statements that all had expiration dates.

What if we were all Rosie O'Donnell?

We could assert that we opposed guns while we all owned them.

What if we were all Piers Morgan?

Bingo. Too few people are capable to draw parallels between earlier Soviet Russia and America since Clinton.
They were extremely liberal to the point of politicizing everything and total paralysis of collective will, inability to make things done.
They had full set of characters including analogues of Sandra Fluke and John Moore, they had all the social processes in place including affirmative action, class warfare, war on family and religion.
It is not surprising that tyranny has come in a few years to ‘fix’ troubles, and many people welcomed it.
No society is immune on this matter.
