Conservatism Versus Liberalism
Posted By Alan Partis on January 23, 2009
Political thought, as defined with respect to United States politics, is a spectrum running from liberalism (figuratively on the left) to conservatism (on the right). Most people will identify themselves with one side of the spectrum or the other. The degree to which they are grounded in their belief system, the more likely they are to be further from the political center.
We’ll leave for another day the task of actually trying to define the defining beliefs found along the way.
Just a boy from small-town western New York (Batavia) with strong convictions and a desire to express my opinions. I'm married and have a daughter with whom I am taking great pains to brainwash into my way of thinking (so far with great success).
Though I am a software engineer by day, I read a great deal about current events, history, and economics and philosophy. I'm certain that many of my former teachers will be pleasantly surprised to hear this. I've grown very interested in trying to help educate others about the liberty guaranteed to us in the United States Constitution and the economic theories on which this Country was founded.
