Whether the left want to admit this or not, they are currently embarking us on a path to Liberal Utopia, a place where liberals believe everything will be better for all, where all of our needs, wants and desires, are met, and no one is left out. They believe, through readings of socialist manifestos, that it's possible to construct a society on the platform of socialism, which will address all the needs of the needy, while 'evening the field' between the 'haves' and 'have nots' and basically making all things fair. The problem is, it doesn't work.
As power shifts to the state, it becomes pervasively more corrupt. Those who hold power, seek even more power and control over it. Once the hierarchy is established, this becomes quite easy to manipulate. The end result is a ruling class, who control freedom, and determine what can and can't be done, as well as all the resources to implement whatever they please, against the will of the people.
There is a rude awakening coming for those who think the road to Utopia will be a sweet one. Much like the doe-eyed Easterners who traveled West in the Pioneer days, it's not as easy and enjoyable as you think. There are many dangers, and obstacles in getting to Liberal Utopia. Productivity, for instance.
You see, the thing many pinhead liberals who advocate socialism, simply fail to understand is... there aren't freeloaders in a socialist society. Everyone is expected to work and do their part to contribute to the rest of the community. It doesn't matter if you have some medical condition, or ailment which prevents you from working, you must be able to produce, otherwise, you are an expendable drain on society and have to be eliminated eventually. So those of you who are sitting on your ass, drawing a disability check, complaining about "the rich" having more than they deserve, keep in mind, the Liberal Utopian road means you will have to work harder than you've ever worked your entire life.
Someone once calculated, if you took all the wealth in the world, and equally distributed it among every man, woman, and child, each person would have roughly $13,000. This is below poverty level. Yet this is the 'ideal' behind Liberal Utopia. Equal distribution of the wealth. If we could wave a magic wand and make the world into Liberal Utopia, we would all work harder than we ever worked in our lives, and we'd make roughly $13k for the effort. If we didn't want to work, too bad... either work or die. If we want to make more money, too bad... be content with your $13k or die.
Communist Socialism requires that everyone contribute, not just a select few. No longer will we have a system where the "wealthy" pay 90% of the tax burden, we will all share this burden equally. Since the Socialist government will be providing all our wants and needs, our job will be whatever the government says, and we'll have to meet production requirements and quotas. We'll no longer have people who simply draw from the system without contribution, the Utopianism can't survive this way. Since there will be no more "wealthy" people to depend on, we will all have to do our part, and then some.
You've probably heard the old adage, be careful what you wish for. Well, I believe this is the case with the left and Liberal Utopia. Many of them have a romantic notion of what it would be like, but the reality will be quite different. We can look at old pictures of the Soviet Bloc countries, the people starving and in misery, from decades of totalitarian socialism, the result of Liberal Utopia run amok. This is what's coming for us, if we continue down the road to Liberal Utopia. Perhaps it is beneficial to us, in the long run, to lose our freedom and have to live in the dismal misery known to eastern Europeans for so many years? Maybe when the state has eradicated the "do-nothings" from society, and we are all forced to meet production demands at the threat of death... maybe that's what it takes for people to realize how good they had it?

That Liberal Utopia thinking that Conservatives would be, could be decent citizens.
