Are you conservative, liberal, or neutral?

I am just curious about whether people here are more conservative or more liberal...

Conservative is "right". In US conservetive side would be the Republican party. Conservative parties value order over freedom, and freedom over equality.
The extreme right would be totalitarian parties such as the Nazi.

Liberal is "left". In US it would be the Democratic Party. These parties value freedom over order, and equality over freedom. They are also known as the progressives, because they bring social changes.
The far left are the radicals, who are technically socialists.
The extreme left are the communists.

This is not by anyway meant to be offensive to anyone... it's just a servey.

politics is far from me. I only support those who can wake up the economy, and can offer more jobs.

By world's standard, even the Democrats can be considered "right". because the U.S. values freedom and capitalism more than other countries.

I'd like to be "flexible", because it's better not to do everything with just one mindset.

所以我说你前面说的那个有问题嘛:p

对了，我的政治方向比较奇怪，说穿了就是哪个PARTY都讨厌
只不过是多少的区别而已

经济是衡量政治成功与否的第一把标尺，社会公平和公共安全是第二把，第一把和第二把相互作用，至于说一人一票的普选权力和绝对的言论自由那都要靠边站了，在第一把和第二把上，新加坡政府和日本倒是某种程度的典范。对于美国来说，第一和第二似乎都不存在大的问题，如此一来原先需要靠边站的议题就堂而皇之的列阵在前，不是问题的问题也就成了问题，政治就是如此。

actually, this doesn't really apply only to US politics...
this can be applied to any country.


Democrats are considered "left" because of its support for welfare, medicare, &c.
Technically, they are going towards socialism in a way.

Also, many European countries are considered liberal or "left" because of their support for equality. (meaning, taxing the rich and give the money to the poor.)
