If you wanted to be more accurate to what I am saying, try one of the following:
- Offered to loan your primary competitor unlimited funds without payback when his business was hurting. - Openly allow your house to be robbed by intruders because they were from a poorer upbringing. - Supply a weapon to an intruder, so he'd be equally matched with yours. - Gave a significant portion of your earnings to random drug addicts for piss-poor rehabilitation. - Actively promoted drug-addicts to recieve social-security benefits "because they are disabled". - Believe we need to spend more tax dollars on foreign aid.
If you answered Yes to any of the above, you may just be a liberal.
