I teach boxing to high school kids. How do you match up with your service and volunteering? Want to go a few rounds in the ring with a liberal?

I make you miserable because I have liberal ideas? I apologize for that.
Guess there are always abnormalities to all trends. How do I match up? Well, I won't belittle your sacrifice by expounding on my service. Just because my service exceeds yours does not mean that I sacrificed as much, so I won't demean your service.

That said, a liberal is a liberal is a socialist. My opinion. It is obvious that you have had a change of heart.

Liberals are real good with volunteering other folks' money when it comes to taxes and funding. I don't feel that way. I do not feel that America is so weak that we need to coddle the lazy/unmotivated. I have rarely seen anyone that supported a family on minimum wages, UNLESS they were just not motivated enough to better themselves. In that case, they receive welfare. If you give them a higher minimum wage, you will probably find that they will lose their food stamps and medicaid. That will actually do them more harm. But, liberals don't look at it like that. They only think they are doing good.
