Some people will always see the glass half empty and others will always see it half full and no amount of explaining will help.

Most people are doing something they think will help someone eles, with the best of intentions. There is a saying, Freedom is not free. Someone has to sacrifice somewhere. If you got something for free, someone else had to provide it. Most of us have no problem with welfare and gladly give. One description of left wing politics is always the need for someone else to provide the product. For many, that get's old after a while. All you have to do is look at Greece as an example of Left Wing Socialist Policies. And, it was all done with the best of intentions. Over here, our esteemed left wing policitians decided everyone could buy a house, weather thay could pay for it or not. Because of that failure, the whole world took a tumble because of investments worldwide. If civility has gone down in Croatia it is because of big Scoial Policies other places that is the culprit. The Housing Bubble caused a large part of it. But people will still see the glass half full or half empty.
