I honestly see the battle between Democrat and Republican, liberal and conservative as the exact same dynamic--there's a group of people in this world that don't like conflict and care about what other people are going through, and then there's this other group of people in the world who hate that. 'Suck it up, man, we're not coddling you, take care of yourself, what's your problem?' It's jocks versus geeks, and I've always referred to life as perpetual high school because it never stops. Paul Feig
About This Quote

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Just like when you push a person in the direction of success, they push themselves towards failure. The same thing applies in the political arena where politicians push for one side or another to achieve success. They use their power to make people think their way is right and the other way is wrong.

For example, if you are a conservative Republican it means that you should vote for Republican candidates to make things better for America. But what if the Democrat candidate gets elected? You will then be stuck with that president who never cared about you or your family. At best, you will be disappointed that you voted for them; at worse, you might even hate them because they never gave your family any help.
