Liberals like using government to solve problems in OUR country and conservatives are using our government to solve problems in OTHER countries.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Liberals often don't see the problems, and conservatives don't see the promise, of government.
The main difference between liberals and conservatives is that conservatives are honest about it. We're kind of dorks about it. We are kind of like Dungeons and Dragons geeks.
The liberals think government exists to fix what's wrong with America. They find fault with our Constitution, our economic model and our core values. We disagree with the premise of their argument. We believe there's nothing wrong with America that an extra dose of freedom won't cure.
Liberals like me love America. We just love America in a different way.
Liberals have been committed to the principles of human rights, international stability, and international justice. They have also sought international solutions to those problems which have demanded collective attention.
Liberals tend to be much more concerned about business and corporations as the oppressors. They look to government as the solution. On the Right it's the opposite. They see business as good, as what generates wealth in society, and they see government as the oppressor, which makes it hard for especially small businesspeople.
Liberals want the government to get bigger, and they want you to drive smaller cars, and they want to dictate the way you live.
Conservatives divide the world in terms of good and evil while liberals do it in terms of the rich and poor.
The conservative movement is about government playing its important yet limited role, and about not falling into the trap of believing that every problem has an exclusive government answer for it.
This is not about being liberal. This is not about being conservative. This is about making sure our government works for all Americans.
