I was just out on the liberal Upper West Side of Manhattan, where I live. I was observing the sea of brainwashed people. I was thinking about our institutions crumbling like once great and strong marble pillars, succumbing to too many years of being eaten away at by the cancer of liberalism. And once eaten away, the house will eventually fall. 

The current credit mess is an excellent case study (albeit an all-too-real one) in what liberalism does when injected into our institutions. It was precisely because liberals thought they could legislate equality, through the idea that "everyone deserves to own a home", or more accurately, "people of minority races and of lower income brackets need to own homes just like white people." That's what caused all of this. They made up phony studies back in the 90s showing that blacks and other minorities were being denied loans, and starting regulating banks so that they'd lower their credit requirements. It's that simple. So the credit market became yet another playground for their social agenda, brought on by people who have no idea how markets work. They do the same thing by telling the military they have to accept gay people, through redefining what marriage is, by redefining what a family is, and by lowering standards all around so that they can tell the lowest among us that they should be able to have anything that anyone else has if they want it. They defy human nature, stand in the way of progress while calling themselves "progressives", and intentionally or unintentionally destroy every single institution that made this country great and unique.
