... some stupid bleeding heart liberal fought for minimum water quality standards. ...
Stupid stereotype. I've never yet met a conservative who tried to make sure his/her (or anyone else's) drinking water was unsafe.I do know of a country where the UN stupidly provided arsenic-laden drinking water to about 20% of the population in the name of pure water.
His medications are safe to take because some nanny state loving liberal fought to ensure their safety and work as advertised. ...
Stupid stereotype. Actually, I believe the FDA was the creation of Republican President Teddy Roosevelt.
All but $10.00 of his medications are paid for by his employer's medical plan because some liberal union workers fought their employers for paid medical insurance ...
Stupid stereotype. Here in Silicon Valley, most tech employers have such health plans, and have for decades. Very few Silicon Valley tech companies are unionized (I can only think of one).
His bottle is properly labeled with every ingredient and the amount of its contents because some socialist liberal fought for his right to know ...
Stupid stereotype. Actually,
Truth in Advertising and similar laws were bipartisan, beginning in the Nixon Administration.
He walks to the subway station for his government subsidized ride to work; It saves him considerable money in parking and transportation fees.
Well his partial honesty is refreshing. Here in Silicon Valley, public transit is about 90% subsidized. What DU-member "Heartstrings" doesn't mention is that the "savings" are illusory. What public transit riders do not pay into the fare box they pay in property taxes, gas taxes, DMV fees, and state/local income taxes. Government subsidies aren't pooped by unicorns, they come from taxpayers. Another thing DU-member "Heartstrings" doesn't mention is that taking public transportation often doubles (or worse) one's commute. And then there's security. Recent high profile crime aboard BART trains brought to light the fact that 70% (or 75%) of "security cameras" aboard BART trains are either fake or non-operational.
He has a good job with excellent pay, medicals benefits, retirement, paid holidays and vacation because some liberal union members fought and died for these working standards.
Stupid stereotype. Actually, union jobs are in the minority, and in shrinking number (Look for the Sierra Club logo!).
Etc., etc., etc.. I'm surprised he didn't claim liberals invented the wheel, writing, agriculture, walking erect, and opposable thumbs.
