About This Quote

The left has sought to fight for social justice and equality, while the right sought to protect the established order. Now, in 2015, it is much more complicated than that. The left wing of the Democratic Party seeks to move society in a progressive direction, while the right wing of the Republican Party seeks to return to an era when society was perceived as being better off.
