Social Justice can only be achieved through coercion and coercion is the opposite of liberty.  Leftists love coercion and hate freedom.  Leftists are only focused on political power.  For the Left, equality is just a tool, not a goal.  Equality does not exist.  Equality must be enforced using coercion.  The Khmer Rouge in 1975 came close; however, even the most fanatical leftists using the most insane levels of coercion failed to create equality on earth.  All Leftists lust for power.  Socialists know that social justice can only be achieved through coercion.  Leftism is a big-lie constructed to fool people.  Leftists loathe producers and love non-taxpayers.  Why?  Non-taxpayers are easy to enslave.  Leftists want poor Americans to be dependent and subordinate to the democrat party.  When non-taxpayers get nothing from the democrat party that's intolerable because the constant enslavement of the very poor is central to democrat party power.  Democrats use dependency and coercion to maintain political power.  Leftists refuse to acknowledge that the rich being rich does not make the poor, poor.  Income inequality doesn't affect you or any one else.  Pursuing class warfare is job one for democrats because using dependency and income equality to enslave the poor is politically more important than liberty.  Leftists say they want to help the poor using taxes taken from the rich.  Leftists don't care what is done as long as Leftists keep political power.  This takes coercion.  That is why the far-Left loves coercion and hates liberty.  Funny thing about those income taxes and coercion.  The state sends a gunman to your home and with a gun to your head, the state takes your wallet.  In the far-Left narrative this coercion is the highest virtue.  Basically, all Leftists claim that centralized planning outperforms and is more effective at everything from stimulating the economy to helping the poor which justifies all coercion.  More cow bell, baby!  Just like the Khmer Rouge, American progressivist liberals want more cow bell.  Democrats are screaming for Khmer Rouge levels of cow bell in America.  Liberalism is a scam.  --- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khmer_Rouge --- http://www.aljazeera.com/news/asia-pacific/2012/02/20122343515747835.html
