you live in a very simple place. "conservatives" (this term cracks me up) love government when it works, fear it when it doesn't. they tend to trust / prefer private institutions and solutions to public. american "liberals" prefer public solutions to private.

quit disparaging people who disagree with you. attempt to understand their real motivations rather than harping against some lame stereotype (that doesn't even make sense). that's the way to progress and solving our problems.
