No they do not operate on Marxist models and quoting Marx doesn't prove your point.
liberals do not buy votes by stealing or transferring wealth. What you're referring to as never happened in this country. A progressive tax system is not confiscation.
You still don't know what you're talking about
New Jersey is more expensive than Nebraska; therefore, it costs more to live and operate. And while Nebraska may have a good school system so does New Jersey. In fact New Jersey has some of the richest counties in the country, and within those counties are excellent schools. At the same time, a small 3 bedroom house approx. 1200 square feet, in those same counties can go for upwards of 400,000 dollars. Union power is the same in these counties as it is in poorer counties. Good schools or bad schools have nothing to do with Unions. A school is successful as a result of its resources, its student body, the community it is in, its individual teachers, its administration, and the state government. It might behoove you to ask this question: Why are schools in well-to-do communities almost universally better than schools in poorer communities? The answer has nothing to do with unions or Marxism. Once again try reading a book. A good one, though a bit outdated today, is Savage Inequalities.
You're making your argument from impression and misapprehension. You see superficial causation and correlation but fail to go deeper.

I would hate, and many many others too, to live a world you think is free from Marxism. We are social animals and rely upon one another to survive and prosper. The richest among us and the poorest among us need the collective that is represented by our governments. Businesses ask for tax breaks and bailouts. They ask for regulations when it suits them. The fact of the matter is that the rich don't become rich solely as a means of their own fortitude. To not recognize is to believe a myth that has no reality and never has.

First of all, it would be nice of you didn't cite etymology from conservative propaganda. The word liberalism has origins older than the 19th century and is an expression, as it is currently used and has been used since the 18th century, not the 1800s, of classical and Enlightenment notions of political and social freedom. "Leftists" as you call them are advocates of individual rights--that's why they champion things like racial, sexual, and gender civil rights programs. "Leftists" employ the rule of law and in fact insist upon the application of justice, as it is understood in the Platonic/Socratic sense--the equal application of law to all citizens despite position. "Leftists" also insist on limited government advocating for a government that does not determine what one can and can not say, what one can and can not ingest, what one can and can not do with his or her own body, what one can and can not believe. ""Leftists", for the most part, are in perfect agreement with the notion of private property and its protection under the law. 'Leftists do have a problem with laissez-faire economic but so do most people. How can I say that, because the modern world has never known and will never know, unless all governments collapse, an unregulated marketplace. The chaos of such a thing would not be conducive to real trade anyway. So by your own definition a "Leftist" is a liberal.

On the other hand, a conservative and his or her credentials as a liberal are questionable. Many conservatives support the status quo, as that is the definition of conservative, and unfortunately there are limitations in the status quo as it relates to individual freedom and limited government. And to the point of limited government. A limited government is not the actual size of government but the control it has over the people it governs. When a government provides health insurance or retirement insurance it is not overstepping its bounds; rather, it is providing something that is beneficial to its people. However, when a government tells a woman that she has to stick a probe into her vagina, that is the very definition of unlimited government.


***To Katherine:
I respond to you and then you respond to me and bar me from responding. Are you afraid of something? Continue to live in ignorance and you will fail to know truth. And in response to, "No, leftists do NONE of those things, hence the distinction between leftists and liberals. But then, you're a "progressive," ie leftist" I would say, if you can't see that they don't then you're not really paying attention. You're probably one of those people who think it was Republicans and conservatives who gave women the right to vote, ended segregation, and generally fights for the rights and liberties of all people no matter race, ethnicity, religion, or sexuality. And in the same breath you're against gay marriage, think blacks hate whites, hate immigrants, and despise Islam. It must be sad to be you.
