If Liberals and Progressives lived up to their own standards, shouldn't they all be poor?

    Not exactly, since Liberals are the cause of there being more living in poverty under Obama, than under any Republican President.

    So you don't actually listen to anything liberals or progressives actually say. Interesting, but not surprising.

    Liberals and progressives live up to their own standards and are in general quite affluent, with high incomes.

    You would have to explain why you think that economic success is incompatible with liberal standards. It is not apparent.

    Nope. That sounds like a regressive fantasy about what socialism is. FYI, the entire world is socialist, there are plenty of millionaires in the UK, Europe, Asia, etc.

    I will assume the reason you asked this question is because you are too stupid to know what being "liberal" or "progressive" means.

    Here: let me help you:

    Liberalism is a political philosophy or worldview founded on ideas of liberty and equality.

    pro·gres·sive

    a person advocating or implementing social reform or new, liberal ideas.

    synonyms: innovator, reformer, reformist, liberal, libertarian

    https://www.google.com/search?q=progressive&rlz=1C...

    For some stupid reason known only to you, you think Liberty and Innovation are bad things.
