I agree with the sentiment. It's important to tell people that conservatives or liberals are not that different because ultimately both take their values of classical liberalism and capitalism

Um , dems are on the right side of economic history. I hate MARX as much as Ayn Rand. The only problem with the left is allowing the right to blackmail us and our voter apathy.

My party has the right ideas. I am an economic liberal, but it is BS to say the left is anti private sector merely for saying the pay gap is killing us. Billionaire Nick Hanauer agrees that it will only kill the feedback loop that makes his class rich if we keep exploding the pay gap.

A plutocracy is a plutocracy no matter where the wealth is concentrated, be it a political party or class. You starve too much of any population evolution will kick in and those being hurt will at the first chance take a shot at the powers. This is not open vs closed societies, this is simple evolution.

The reason why I grow skeptical of liberals, social liberals and social democrats is because they want to eat the whole cake. You can't have capitalism and avoid exploitation, wage gaps, cyclical crisis' and poverty. It is a massive contradiction and it will not work. Either you support individual rights and private property or you don't. 

Personally I don't hate anyone who didn't demonstrate will to commit great acts of evil like Hitler or Rodrigo Borgia - Someone who just wrote a few books is not someone I will ever hate as much as I disagree with the person

If you are an economic liberal then inevitably you support the drawbacks of the system, including neo-liberalism and the crap that comes with it. The idea that you can reform and have a mixed economy is beautiful in theory but I have not seen how it can be achievable if the ruling class is still the same and quite frequently the same family lineages.
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
