Social-Democrat? What do you mean by that?
Much like declaring oneself a Communist, a Liberal, a Socialist, a Conservative, and so forth, declaring oneself a Social-Democrat doesn't really say anything, now does it? Unless constrained to a certain political context, such labels are quite meaningless.

So do tell, what do you mean when you say, that you are a Social-Democrat?

I think its Yeidish for "fair gain".

The idea was that if two people tryed to decide on a fair price for some goods, and the discussions came to a dead-end, the seller would declare "Benemunes Parnusa", the buyer would look at the goods and say "you deserve to have X$ profit" (or something similar), and then the seller would say: "OK, the goods cost me Y$" The buyer would then pay X+Y$ and all would be well.

There was a strong social taboo against lying about the original price of the goods.
