I consider myself a left-liberal. US-citizens may think this is sayin' the same thing twice, but here in Germany, the "liberal" party is anything but left. Other's from left partys are anything but liberal, some even wanting Stalinism back. I believe that there is enough fortune for everybody, it just has to be properly shared.
A few years back, I met this homeless guy who asked me for a few Euro-Cents to complete his one Euro-Dollar he needed to buy himself a coffee. I just felt so damned sad, that in a rich society like Germany, there are people who even have to ask for so little.
