Good question ..notice how you didn't get a straight answer from a Liberal. The fact of the matter is Liberals like money just as much as conservatives if not more, the difference is they feel entitled to other peoples money! Actually you really cant paint all liberals with the same brush, except that they all put their utmost faith in Government above all else!

Why not just copy The Fountainhead principal in here; that anyone who is not the best at anything is a communist bastard looking to destroy society and should look forward to life a slow monotony serving their betters.

As a liberal I have to say this is a trick question. We liberals don't have kids. We eat our young.

I tell my kids to stay far away from the crazy, old white people wearing the tin foil hats.

Bottom line she is successful both for her paid and unpaid work.
The first serious response to the OP's question.

Sadly, it came as the very last post on the first page. Sad. Look at all that hatred on page one. A bunch of truely unhappy miserable people looks like to me. I though that people were like that because they were so unhappy under Bush, but apparently they are just angry bitter people in general.

I'm going to encourage my kids to drop out of high school, start producing children by age 15, and support overtaxing the rich to pay their welfare and foodstamps

What a stupid thread.

Regardless... a lacking question should recieve stupid responses? Look, the left on this forum are constantly and regularly hateful, snide, and rude. This thread is proof.

Some of you need to learn to show some class (even if you don't have much)

It's not "making and having a lot of money" that are a concern. It's shallowness, emptiness, greed and materialism that "liberals" () teach their children to laugh at and pity.

Among other fine qualities.
