  Urban Dictionary: liberal
A liberal, in the American sense, is one who falls to the left in the political spectrum; In other parts of the world, however, liberalism is the belief in laissez-faire capitalism and free-market systems - hence the recently coined term, neoliberalism.
Liberals are typically concerned with the rights of the oppressed and unfortunate — this, of course, does not mean that they ignore the rights of others (liberals represent the best interests of the middle-class in America).
Liberals believe that the rights of the people, of the majority, are to be valued much more sincerely than those of corporations, and therefore have frequently proposed the weakening of corporate power through heavier taxation (of corporations), environmental regulations, and the formation of unions.

Market-based health care systems such as that in the United States rely primarily on private health insurance.
Health insurance is one of the most controversial forms of insurance because of the perceived conflict between the need for the insurance company to remain solvent versus the need of its customers to remain healthy, which many view as a basic human right.
Some say that this conflict exists in a liberal healthcare system because of the unpredictability of how patients respond to medical treatment.

 End Racism in the Healthcare System
But as the contradictions of the heath care system grow glaringly obvious, hospital workers are finding common cause with poor patients, often serving as their advocates for grievances.
Clearly the theory of opportunity allows and encourages the perpetuation of our racist system, through both the racism of contempt by the ruling class as they assume the role of benefactor, and the racism of fear among the fl and brown bourgeoisie, by promoting divisive competition instead of cooperation among all oppressed peoples.
It is evident that our present health care system demands that a small group (the physicians) retain its authority as extollers of opportunities, while allowing a few to join its ranks in the interest of the myth.

They invented the system, grew it into the hellacious mess that it is today, and mandate by Stalinist law that we stick with it against all common sense and logic and morality.
Liberals hate it when I mention that nearly every country has universal access healthcare and have had for decades, because they have opted to consciously lie through their teeth—right to your face—and make you think that Canada is the only country that has it today.

Smokers would pay an extra 50 cents for a pack of cigarettes in Massachusetts, and Bay State employers would be required to offer healthcare coverage to their workers under legislation unveiled yesterday by a key state senator.
The bill proposed yesterday by Senator Richard T. Moore, cochairman of the Legislature's Committee on Health Care, stakes out ground held by many liberal healthcare advocates, who say that covering everybody in Massachusetts is impossible without spending more money and requiring employers to provide health coverage.
Romney has said that market-based changes and a system of "carrots and sticks" to persuade businesses to cover their workers would bring the state close to the goal of covering all citizens, without an infusion of additional state dollars.
