Most liberal Democrats are self-centered, greedy, government-worshiping assholes who hide their greedy desire to take other people's money behind the phony pretense that "It's for the children!"
They want to be floated by wealth redistribution, taking what someone else has, giving to Dear Leader whom they believe will give to them, the more the merrier, and they think they're fooling everyone by hiding this behind fake concern for poor people and minorities. That's just page 1, chapter 1, paragraph 1, rule 1 from their playbook- accuse everyone who calls them out on their hypocrisy racist, try to shut down all debate.
The only thing any spoiled brat liberal really wants from the poor and minorities is guaranteed votes for Democrats and big government. They are to be used for issues like the left's desire to flood minority neighborhoods with illegal aliens, rig elections and oppose common sense voter ID laws. (Remember, just yell racism, shut down the debate, get what the left wants.)
Beyond that, they believe any minority's role is to rot in some ghetto somewhere, out of sight, out of mind. Anyone who doubts this, witness the absolute rage, venom and outright racist hatred the left has for any minority that dares step out of the poor/dependent/votes D-party and swallows everything hard left hook line and sinker stereotype. Absolute racist hatred the left has for any minority that dares not to 'know their role'.
As for welfare, again, that's their carrot they want forever dangled to those they want to keep poor and helpless and 'in their place'. Dear Leader takes from those that are undeserving, and gives to those that the left wants to pander to. Any attempt to wreck that gravy train is also met with all the usual tactics of the left: scream racism, shut down all debate, claim its for the children, claim the whole world will come to an end if you don't do what the left wants (witness their environmental doomsday religion) and basically use the power of big government to overwhelm, dominate, and control the populace.
Most liberal Democrats' dream come true for society is a mix somewhere between Stalin's USSR, Castro's Cuba and North Korea. To get there, they sell a vision of utopian paradise to all the sheeple, the same as statist nitwits have always done. (Just read the Soviet constitution- it pretty much reads like the Democrat Party platform). Results? Leftists neither know or care how great its worked out the last time their stupid ideas were tried- they (like all the utopian nitwits before them) think they know everything. THIS time, they'll do it right. So just shut up and let Dear Leader and the NSA do what's best to you.
