Re: What will Dems with nothing left to lose, do in coming lame-duck session of Congr

Conservatives generally want the government to balance the budget, secure the borders, regulate interstate commerce, defend against enemies, and stay out of our business.

Liberals want to expand that to include a safety net, education, and health care.

Socialists want the government to own and run the means of production.

Social authoritarians want the government to determine personal choices.

Social libertarians, like conservatives, want the government to stay out of our personal business.

There. I hope that clears up political terminology and philosophies.
