When I hear people say that, I always say "ok fine, let's start with you first." We'll sell off your cars, house and other assets and use that to purchase them homes, health care and educations. It's going to cost a lot and everyone has to contribute.
Every time you direct the question of cost, contribution and personal sacrifice back to a liberal, you often get a complete change in tone, or they lash out at you then walk away calling you a "racist."
I've got a liberal friend who is building himself a beautiful house; lots of very nice amenities. He constantly posts to Facebook about the importance of caring for migrants. Meanwhile, two miles away, local hispanic families are packed into cheap affordable housing. It would be so awesome if he put his money where his mouth is, and lived in a less-expensive home thus freeing up money that he could use to to care for the POC. But no, that's the government's job, not his.
I, too, have a liberal-no-longer-my-friend who lives in a million dollar house on a gorgeous island in SC. Bitches to his financial advisor about ‘make me more money!’; golfs every day; has a custom golf cart tricked out to resemble a Cadillac...I could go on and on. Votes Democrat. Talks the talk but never walks the walk. Asshoe!
That’s what I pretty much had to do with my husband. “Okay, honey. Are you okay with your grandmother being evicted from her nursing home and her room given to somebody from a third world country that is sicker? Possibly while the family is still paying for her spot there?” “No.” “So why should other families suffer just so you can feel good about your position?”

It's always easy to be generous with other people's money.

Usually, these people just aren’t thinking.
