I believe in a Living Wage, regulation of corporations (since they benefit from our social/economic policies and corporate welfare), and universal healthcare. But I do not hate the market economy or corporations per se. I believe in encouraging the health of the market economy but also encouraging/promoting/enforcing social responsibility. I dedicated 10 years of my life to the community between being a volunteer therapist-intern working with the mentally ill and a social worker (who sometimes dipped into her own pocket to provide food to a family). So I don't have to prove my liberalism -- but I don't believe in blindly following what some sites advocate, such as counterpunch. So in this way I support what was said previously. I welcome moderates to the Democratic party.
