You are not looking at or presenting the full picture. And, one of the big "social improvement" experiments in our nation's history -- the GI Bill -- benefited you, and it sprang from damn liberals, your lengthy rational on why it is perfectly good and proper that it does benefit you notwithstanding.

I could mention that the 40 hour week most all of us think is the way to go might never have come into being without noisy protests by pinko labor unions years back. Damn them and their "inflict(ing) their vision of social improvement" on the rest of us!
Maybe those MDs weren't worth the exec pay so they get a fraction of it.

Hitler did a some good too. Unfortunately for him, his bad outweighed the good. As such, it doesn't mean that just because some good came from liberals, all good comes from them, does it? They can do bad things like Hitler too, right? Think they are any better than the conservatives? I would disagree. Both are different faces of the same coin. Once in a while, sure, some good comes out of them.

You could. I could also mention a lot of abuses they have committed. Either way, the question is "What have you done for me LATELY?"
