What a sickening editorial!
Indeed it is. What you need to keep in mind about these illiberals is that they prefer Government (others) to do what they should be doing themselves. Its much easier to fake compassion through other people than to put forth the effort on their own. They are typically morally lazy, unthoughtful in any real sense, and totally self absorbed. They are typically the most elitist and as he so called Fred the most callous people around.
