Re: Why are so many college students far-left liberals or socialists?
Liberalism is easy. You simply need to care about the problem, locate the liberal solution and advocate. In fact, if you mistakenly stop and think about many knee-jerk liberal answers to problems you'll find yourself hopelessly confused.
Here's a good example. Gas prices are too high. Let's put price controls on it! Problem solved. Don't you feel better? I sure do. Now let's go after the windfall profits too!
1/2 part intellectually lazy + 1/4 part idealist + 1/4 part self-loathing white = liberal. Most every time.
