Liberalism is a mental disorder that can be treated (with heavy doses of reality)
It is usually the hardships of life that create character, and eventually make one a 'conservative'.
Those that believe the government is there to bail them out, to give handouts, to solve all life's problems, to make things fair, they usually haven't learned from life's problems, and are deceived into this belief. The fact that thier saviours, the Dem Leaders, only want them when it's time to vote, is another lesson they all seem to miss.
