Okay, so what I don't understand about the way both Liberals and Conservatives think, is this:
1. Liberals dont trust people to make the best decisions for themselves, their children, or society (Social spending, Education, "hate", Religion)
2. Based on this distrust, liberals believe that government should make legislation to force people to do that which they believe is correct
3. Conservatives dont trust people to make the best decisions for themselves, their children, or society (Drugs, Sex, "Love", Religion)
4. Based on this distrust, conservatives believe that government should make legislation to force people to do that which they believe is correct (or not do what they believe is incorrect)
5. The government is made up of comittees of people
6. The intelligence and wisdom of a commitee is almost invariably equal to that of the stupidest member, divided by the number of members in the committee
7. There are 435 members of the house of representatives and 100 members of the senate
8. There are 9 members of the supreme court
9. There is one president
10. If neither liberals, nor conservatives trust people to make good decisions for themselves or their children; why do they trust the government, with a collective IQ of (to be charitable) 120 divided by 545 ( 0.22) to implement legislation making decisions for OTHER peoples lives and children?
