Conservatives and Liberals…can't we all just get along?

So it’s been a while since I’ve posted any articles I’ve written. In light of the recent budget debates I thought id drudge this old thing out of the depths of my massive hard drives. Enjoy…?

Everyone acknowledges that we have problems in this country; to deny that fact would be idiotic. We have lower and middle classes struggling to make ends meet while the upper class seems to be living it up. Any compassionate human being would examine the situation and arrive at the conclusion that we need change. The question is, what has to change?

In essence the Conservative and Liberal are both pursuing the same goal but with very different approaches. The Liberal takes the idealistic and admittedly more impulsive approach, reacting in a knee-jerk fashion without taking the consequences into account. To the Conservative this seems myopic. The Conservative analyzes the situation in both the short term and the long term and makes his decision based on that analysis. To the Liberal this seems cold.
