they are valuable members of society together with everyone else who pay taxes to a state that ensures a satisfactory social order for the majority of the population.

This is an interesting sentence. No worries about culture or history, nations reduced to their governments and citizenship reduced to the obligation of paying tribute to the central elite in hopes that they will maintain "satisfactory social order." A new feudalism and perhaps capitalism's final development. It makes nations, or at least nations as they presently exist, rather unnecessary since that state is defined only by its ability to keep order. All too clever by half since no matter what this nitwit thinks it will make a difference when France, say, is majority Muslim and African.

Europeans and many Russians have socialism in their blood, so their quest is probably for something along the lines of a Scandinavian-type society.

There's only one USA, and unfortunately the USA hovers around 51% USA and 49% European.

Someone gave me a link to a Russian site: A short dictionary of a liberal superman. Though it's tongue in cheek, it sort of gives an insight:

WORK - that, which BYDLO (sort of a crude form of 'sheeple') don't know how to do.

OLIGARCHY - the highest form of DEMOCRACY

TO TAKE EVERYTHING AND SHARE IT – the dream and main slogan of BYDLO, NATIONALISTS, COMMUNISTS, AND PATRIOTS.

BYDLO - a creature that is neither a member of the SPS or Yabloko parties. BYDLO is guilty of all the problems in RASHKA.

RASHKA - the country where BYDLO lives.

TO EARN IT YOURSELF - the lifestyle of liberals. It resists the tendency of BYDLO TO TAKE EVERYTHING AND SHARE IT.

Apparently Russian liberals and American ones are two different birds entirely. The last thing our liberals earned for themselves was the gold in the 100-meter Oldsmobile freestyles at Chappaquiddick.
