About This Quote

In the world of politics, there is a great divide between conservatives and liberals. Conservatives believe that government must be kept small and limited to only the necessary tasks. Liberals think that government should be given more power and authority. Both sides base their belief on different sources of truth. Conservatives tend to rely on tradition and morality while liberals rely on logic and science.
