What makes a Liberal seek out a Socialist ideology, regardless it's terrible record?

Well, I was living in Europe 50 years ago, looking at America, and seeing the greatest most free nation on Earth. I thought, how can we bring it down to Socialist Europe's level.

Then like an explosion of soy sauce, it came to me! Progressive Socialism is the one common denominator in the rest of Europe's inferior economies, gun confiscations, and freedoms. You might ask why would I want to see a failed ideology introduced to America.

One word.... jealousy!

We European's have always felt insecure over our lack of drive (thanks to our socialist policies punishing success). We expected America to police the world since we had no money for a strong military, and therefore let America do our fair share.

So I thought, rather than emulating the great success of Capitalism, smaller Government, and freedom, we should become a political Progressive force in the US, destroying their work ethic and  family structure.

We had to make able bodied Americans believe they were entitled to tax payer's hard earned money, and to believe that their condition in life is not their fault. We had to make those successful Americans, creating all those jobs, the enemy.

We had to make LGBT activist groups a political force to tear apart the fabric of their strong families. We wanted people to look to Government for help, not God and family.

You ask me what made me a Leftist? A peasant mentality, lack of pride, but still an insecure narcissistic arrogance that my way was the right way, regardless  witnessing Socialism's terrible record.

Ok, I'm not a Socialist Liberal and not a European. I'm not insecure, and can see the obvious truth of the many great benefits of Capitalism.

I possess a brain that can grasp how corrupt Government becomes, and that power to the people is the only way to make a nation great.

How do you know when you are speaking the truth? You will be hated by all the insecure people of the world.
