The "privilege" thing was making me think about my student worker. She is a registered Republican, but says she is really a libertarian.

The weird thing is I think her major might be either economics or poli sci!!!
Yeah, like what you study has any relationship to real life or how you think. . .

She is the very definition of hypocrite.
There have been news stories about various politicians who are against "government handouts" who have, in the past, gotten various benefits from that same government. Like the protesters with "keep government out of my Medicare" signs.
