Dennis Prager’s Top 10 Ways Liberalism Makes America Worse

10 Failings of Liberalism

1. The bigger government, the less citizens do for one another
2. The welfare state may be well intended, it is a Ponzi scheme
3. Citizens by liberal welfare states become increasingly narcissistic
4. The liberal welfare state makes people disdain work
5. Nothing guarantees more the erosion of character than getting something for nothing.
6. The bigger the government the bigger the corruption. The bigger the corporation the bigger the corruption.
7. The welfare state corrupts family life
8. The welfare state inhibits the maturation of young citizens into responsible adults
   1. When I was a young man, I knew my responsibility in life was to merry, support a wife, and support a family
   2. With liberal values, the notion of being dependent is not a negative, it is a positive
9. As a result of the left’s sympathetic views of pacifism,  and because no welfare state can afford a strong military, European countries rely on America to fight the world’s evil and even to defend them.
10. The world view of the left is not to divide the world as a battle between good and evil but the left sees the battle between rich and poor. Equality therefore trumps morality.
    1. The UN ranks health care of nations in this way. The United States ranks 36 in world health care and Cuba Ranks 37.
    2. In the US, the wealthy have the greatest health care and some poor people have lower quality free health care.
    3. Cuban health care is available for the ruling elite and health care stinks for all Cubans but non existent health care is available for all.
