Happy Thanksgiving! I am a liberal because I realize I am very lucky!

I had great parents who raised me get good grades and to prepare for life and supported me.

Many are not so lucky, but they still deserve a life with a decent job and help from people like me when they need it.

I did not pull myself up from my bootstraps. I was helped my my mom and dad and realize it.

I have no problem paying taxes to support those not as lucky as I am.

No tax increase has impacted my life so much that it changed my lifestyle.

I am all for taxing the rich a little more to help those not so lucky.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone here. I am a pain in the ass at times but still realize we are all liberals! Even Hillary!
