Because Liberalism was originally defined as placing an emphasis on individual sovereignty. Now in America it’s basically used as a stand in for the term Progressivism. Largely thanks to FDR co-opting the term after the Progressive movement had started to fall out of favor.
Because the main clash line is not the same in Europe and in the USA. In Europe the main clash line is about economy , and then right wing defend economic liberalism, while the left and the progressive fight unregulated capitalism. Then liberal is associated with right wing politics. In most western Europeans countries right wing is less about religion, tradition, nationalism, etc... or in a light way. Then there are less clash about societal subjects than in the USA. In the USA there is a global consensus about economy between democrats and republicans ( billionaires support both parties) , but the clash line is about societal problems, and then here the liberal position is on the left wing side agaisnt conservatives. Then along the American history of the 20th century, liberal and progressive were associated, and eventually confused.
He had a pretty clear bias actually but it’s just not obvious to those who don’t study politics (don’t take this as an insult). Liberalism consists of both what Americans call “conservatives” and “liberals”. Both fall under the liberal ideology of free-market economy and individual freedom. The difference is that so-called conservatives in America believe in social traditionalism. This traditionalism by no means at all separates them from the liberal ideology, it simply makes them conservative liberals. Anyway, the bias he showed may have been unintentional but it was there nevertheless (the American bias)
I'm not American, so my viewpoint here is completely unbiased, just wanted to say that. So, I kinda do agree on republicans on SOME aspects. I'm 100% progressive, I'm part of the LGBTQ+ community, I'm black(more specifically brown) , and I'm an aethist, so you can already tell that I'm not the most "conservative" person, lol. But there are some points I agree on, like Pro-life, well, not entirely. I have kind of a mixed view when it comes to abortion. If it wasn't your fault, if you got violated or sexually abused, then I can completely understand why you'd want to get an abortion. But if you're literally aware of it and decide to not wear protection or you're being irresponsible about it, then i can't really support it. I truly believe that human life isn't a thing that should be taken for granted or lightly. I'm definitely not an extremist about it and I wouldn't go on rallies waving signs that said "you're killing babies you liberal scum", but if you were 100% aware that you were creating a baby and simply decided to not care because you "could abort it later", then I don't think I can really support you on that one. I also do believe that crime should be punished more hardly. I do believe that there are a lot of social issues that cause crimes, and if there's a bigger reason as to why it's happening, I definitely do believe that there are a lot of people who shouldn't get punished for some crimes. But I absolutely cannot have empathy for someone that doesn't have empathy for other people, I like to be the devil's advocate and put myself in the shoes of everyone I interact with, but that's where the line is drawn. If you're killing and robbing innocent people for the sake of your own benefit, then you deserve to rot away in jail for the rest of your life. But those are pretty much the only two things I semi agree with conservatives/republican, I'd definitely say I'm more liberal in that general. With gun control and spendings and regulations, etc, I completely agree with liberals. But as I said, I'm not from the United States, so I don't really need to worry about this, but it's certainly interesting.
Well done sir! I’ve been pretty much battling my husband who doesn’t understand that I truly quite centrist (he thinks I’m a “brainwashed liberal”. Watching this has proven to myself that it’s sooo much more complex than this label! I can see the benefit of each point you lay out here, and realize that definitely I’m uneven across the board in my personal thoughts. What bothers me is so much misunderstanding between the parties and name calling. I can also see that my husband from what he’s told me of his thoughts and watching this is very much strongly conservative.
it's the same for me but with my parents. I used to be super republican but took a step back and realized that I can agree with things on the left and im basically on both sides now but my parents will just resort to the libtards and stuff like that. they also act very hypocritical about politics and talking to them about politics just makes me disappointed
don't let him gaslight you out of your views though, but yes I think it's so important to have unbiased conversations because there are so many stereotypes surrounding each party and they often fog our vision and prevent proper communication
I’m in the middle of the road. I believe: Abortion should be pro-choice, I’m against affirmative action, we NEED GUNS, the justice system is harder on minorities, we don’t need harder taxes on the rich, our spending should be neither on social programs or the military (as much) and should go to science, we should save our planet 🌍, and we do need a strong military.
I really appreciate Kahm Academy. It was hard for me to focus in class because public school in general was a harsh environment for me to be able to learn properly. In my GED classes I had very short classes and they paid for me and other students to use this for assignments and at home lessons. To this day I still use this guy for learning because it's so much easier and to the point. 🙏

In regards to affirmative action I just want to clarify, as a conservative of color that we DO NOT want a “racially blind” society, but a society of racial acceptance, as described by Doctor King.
@@Brya_baby The natural or conservative stance on Affirmative Action has nothing to do with being blind to people’s races. There is an inherently deceitful constitution behind a “racial unity” that can only be accomplished by trying to “un-see” people’s identities. In contrast, the conservative position is that Affirmative Action actually hurts minorities, by specifically targeting them. So in regards to education, we don’t want society to be race-blind, we just want to make the argument that no one group should ever be treated differently than another. Even if the intention is noble, the practice is still racist, and that’s where we stand.
@@Brya_baby I’m definitely no expert and still learning too. Maybe go watch some Dr. Sowell or Walter E. Williams to explain more on natural and conservative ideas about education.

I'm a Democrat with some liberal and conservative views......nonetheless, I still stand behind my party. With that said, I can say it is obvious that almost no individual will have 100% conservative/liberal views. In a way, it seems as if the U.S. is at least 25% independent, yet when a candidate brings up a controversial topic we either stand behind him/her, or don't like him/her.

I think everything was good except the explaination on conservative views on affirmative action. I believe that we think that our society is already balanced and it’s unfair to give advantages
Thomas The Apostle - Well, he’s missing key points that people like Thomas Sowell make. Affirmative action leads to placing smart people in places they’re not going to do as well in because of the standards already established at that institution, which is why you see higher dropout rates in some colleges from minorities.

Omg thank you so much, biases around me like news are awful I hate it. They make me feel awful. It's a feeling that something is not right. I appreciate the unbiased explanation. They help me see both points of views equally. I was wondering, If you have somewhat equally split views, wouldn't you call yourself independent?
I'm no political expert, and just a high school student but here is my take. A democrat is someone who agrees with significantly more democratic ideals than republican ideals, and vice versa for republicans. I defined an independent as someone who has views that don't match with either of the typical viewpoints/ideals of democrats or republicans. As for a moderate, I think it's someone who is more 50-50 on republican vs democratic views (as you specifically asked about). If you're something like 60-40, one could say that they're a left/right-leaning moderate. Hope this helps! Edit: I realized this question was asked a while ago, but I'm still keep my response haha
My views- Pro abortion. Pro affirmative action but no favouritism. Pro gun regulation. It shouldn't be as easy to get as it is in the USA. Pro tougher policing and law enforcement Anti high taxes and socialism Pro business Pro spending but not on unnecessary things Anti Strict regulation of businesses Pro strong military I guess i am a centrist. Sorry jreg lmfao
Most conservative ideology has been in existence for thousands of years as it comes mainly from the Bible, while many liberal ideologies come from the rejection of tradition in favor of newer things. There is division because conservatives believe in the protection of constitutional rights while liberals are against them and want new ones that conservatives feel violate the rights of others. Like for example hate speech. Many liberals want the right to not be offended. To conservatives this would mean they would loose their right to free speech as they can't say anything that could offend someone. Things like this cause division because people feel like their lives are in danger if the other side wins.
Yeah why is it always between these 2 parties. It’s historical roots come from England with the Tories and the Whigs that’s why all the British colonies have this tension I belive
It is very difficult for foreigners to understand the political system in the USA . In many countries liberals are considered conservatives and viceversa 🤣. In my country low taxes are associated with the liberals🤯

Now that mid terms are coming up and a lot of younger people are getting involved for the first time - this gentleman is pretty accurate, despite the video being 4 years old. While he did not talk much about climate change and the like, and is correct that it is a mostly liberal thing, conservatives are the ones who made and still maintain the national parks. The fires in california a while back are a key example of what over regulation on the environment can do: If you over regulate the environment, letting no smalls fires start naturally because of weather, then when one finally does start...it will be much worse. I would say generally speaking, when it comes to actually working with the environment, conservatives are better at it and don't make silly mistakes because they let nature do its thing - think "farmers" and the like...while when it comes to broader areas of concern, like climate change or gas emissions, liberals are much more concerned about it and some believe that the world will end in 10 years.
On the affirmative action issue. Conservatives dont want a race blind society. They want an individual based society....since the individual is the smallest minority and all.
being against health care is not individualism by greed. individualism makes individuals (including the poor, the women, ect...) the drive of the society. The antagonist is authoritarian : the drive of the society is something external and superior to the individual ( divinity, tradition, bank account, strong leader, "market", biological category, etc.... ) none of the conservative positions are individualists. abortion -> authoritarian forcing raped women to keep a future potential baby is not individualist not fighting discrimination is not individualist rigid/tough view about crime is not individualism refusing that individual can get access to education and good health, because it harms a well filled bank account is not individualism. Serving the individual is the core purpose of public service like national education and NHS. Non regulation of power of the elite is not individualist, it is just defense of the power. A real individualist society has democratic power in all layers of the society. Individualism push to give to worker a power on things that affect them. This is not what conservative defend. Army is not individualist but authoritarian. Only authoritarians peoples defend a strong army.
I have to say, both sides have excellent points in specific sections. Wish all Americans can realize this. Europe's conservatives are nothing as mutated as American conservatives.
Yea..I just watched a video of Europe’s ideology’s and holy crud I can’t wrap my head around on quite a few things. I think my “wait..what???” counter was at 8
good job for doing your homework people, majority of people in the us couldn't give you a explanation between liberal and conservative. Many just pick a party and agree with whatever the party leaders say. sheeple.
Bardo Pasquim what. Democrats maintain the status quo of capitalism just the same as the republican party. Hence them both being referred to as right-wing.
I don’t understand why Americans: 1. have a low voter turnout 2. vote for a third party option especially if they are so sick of the current system. If you don’t vote, you have no right to complain. If you vote for corrupt politicians, then as George Orwell said ‘you are not a victim, you are an accomplice’, irregardless of your ideological beliefs
So less taxes to the rich and more to the poor, I don’t understand republicans view on finance but then again they are the party who is lobbied waaaaaay more
I’m on the fence on pro choice. I’m pro choice but that doesn’t mean I’m pro abortion. I don’t think it’s right for a woman to get four abortions. But then again, I can sleep at night. Wonder if they can ?
This is exactly why I personally don’t solely identify as a Democrat or a Republican. If you choose one or another, there is always some sort of expense involved and 50% of Americans will hate your views.
I am social liberal and economically conservative (which sounds contradictory as Economic right wing supports a liberal economy with less government intervention ) ...So Economically liberals are conservative.
Neither party is operated by religions. We have the freedom of religion and every religion is part of both parties. Muslims, Christians, Catholics, Hindus, Rastafarian, Satanists, etc.
@@KaiusKC Anti abortion comes from religious view.... Conservatives usually defend conservative religious views, limiting freedom of peoples like about abortion.
Ive always thought of conservative as republican + religion, and liberal as democrat + gullibility. I guess I could rephrase the religion part with gullibility as well but its a bit more specific.
This is very simplistic and shallow. I support social programs like healthcare and education. I also support reasonable regulations on businesses. But I'm also an advocate of Second Amendment Rights, stronger military, stronger police force and fetal rights. I also support legalization of marijuana and sex work. Also an advocate of same-sex marriage. Does that make me a conservative or a liberal?
I used to avoid the topic of politics and purposely ignore em back in high school, I don't even wanna vote, but the more issues I see there are in the US the more I feel like I got to dive deeper into what's controlling our system, I'm still not that interested in voting or even learning more about the politicians running for office cuz I don't trust any of em, but I'm starting to reconsider, still need a better understanding on each side first tho
I want you to vote even if you vote completely opposite of me. I'd prefer we all spent at least a little time learning about the people and policies we're voting for, but everyone has to start somewhere. Don't be afraid to vote 3rd party if you don't like either of the big party options.
Technically, based on the information you gave, you're a centrist. Centrism is just a way of saying you lean somewhere in the middle of the political compass, whereas Libertarian-ism is a specific ideology. I don't know which positions you're liberal or conservative on, so you may very well be libertarian.
I am a pro gun conservative but I don't mind too much on government spending on social programs. I would like having the affordable Health Care but not making it mandatory. Give us choices.
I think my viewpoint is a bit more strange - I am extremely left in terms of my economic stance - a huge democratic government that has the power to pretty much regulate all sectors of businesses and companies, ensure tax (especially cooperate welfare tax) is extremely high to fuel and expand public services like the NHS ( I’m from England) and effectively nationalise these. Ensure money is targeted in fighting economic inequality (helping the homeless etc), fund for renewable energy etc and most of my social views are left(liberal). I’m pro abortion, anti guns, anti death penalty, but my point being I feel as if I’m against affirmative action as it seems contradictory to the goal of equality( the main goal for me) as automatically race dictates( or at least suggests your status ) and I would argue that poverty is not a result of race but rather economic factors ( which is why I’m for nationalisation) I don’t know does anyone understand?
Cam of Steel what's it like believing in things that have historically been bad for everyone? Just curious. You can call right wingers names all you want but at least the policies they want have worked before
KaiusKC What are you referring to? I’m talking about things like the NHS state free education. Active measures are made to help people who are financially disadvantaged. If your point is that a kind of socialist state is wrong well I would argue a free market capitalist country is extremely unfair and wrong because it makes the ridiculous assumption that without man made statist intervention that the world is already a kind of meritocracy which is completely wrong. I’m from England but in the U.S these ideas of Medicare, education, social services and even the huge military are ideas that are part of socialism. Today America, a first world country, has some of the worst levels poverty, pretty much 3rd world levels. America have left the Paris peace conference on climate change and its government keep time after time cutting corporate taxes for the 1%. Would you regard these as fair choices in the long run? Further there are many cases of ‘right ‘ wing governments doing awful things. I mean the big one (which is prone to all free market economies) is huge recessions. Just like the Great Depression in the 1930s which caused the majority of countries to refuse peaceful negotiations and instead invade others. Like Italy, Japan and Germany which I believe was a huge factor in getting Hitler into power and hence being a major cause of WW2. American imperialism in the 20th century lead to the government giving money power and armour to corrupt dictatorial powers in the South American countries causing mass death and poverty. It was only when Castro and others came along and improved health education and lifestyle for many South Americans. I mean I don’t agree that Castro was a good man as I disagree with many policies he made like towards Cuban nationalism and family values. But the ideas he had for helping the poor are great and it worked through a near socialist/communist economy. I mean there are many other examples of both left and right doing wrong. Rather the debate should not be that but what does a country want and what is the best system to achieve that. Many polls have suggested that the majority of Americans basically want socialism i.e free Medicare and larger army and free education but once you mention it’s socialism they hate it which I think comes down to the agenda of American media
@@KaiusKC you are a liar history show that left wing policies are better for everyone than right wing policies who just benefit for an elite minority . You should think a little before writing propaganda messages. Public education allow everyone to get high level of education -> good thing for all public health care -> when not managed with private economy in mind, they give the best health services. It allow the greatest number peoples to get good health service, and then better health. -> good for everyone. private health service reduce access to good health for a lot of peoples -> bad for everyone lack of regulation at works gives : misery wage for workers -> bad for everyone no access to public health service -> bad for everyone make strong inequality , in addition of bad social state for most of peoples , it make rises criminality and other bad effects on society -> bad for everyone not fighting pollution,means bad health or death for peoples -> bad for everyone The best proof are Nordic countries : with heavy social/economic left wing policies ( while not socialist on dogmatic point of view ) : They have the best Human Development Index , then left wing work better than right wing policies. Western Europe have developed well because left wing/liberal policies made the life better than before. Then left winf policies are better for everyone.

All was wrong at this time, a lot of misery, a lot of crime, very few real freedoms, right of vote limited etc....

You're saying that as if people are making the argument that healthcare being "free" means nobody is paying for it. No liberal makes that argument. Not a single one. Everyone agrees that "Free Healthcare" means the care is paid for either through taxes or by some other means. Now you can argue the merits of how devastating that tax would be, that's fine, that's at least a valid debate. What's not a valid debate is purposefully misrepresenting people's ideas and words, like the word "free" in an effort to avoid a rational discord on the matter.
DPMixing The USA health system is not just double the UK, it's double that of practically every other first world country. On a graph the USA sticks out like a sore thumb. The USA has decent health care, but nearly half of the money goes to insurance companies who try every trick in the book to deny you health care when you need it, even after paying in 10's or 100’s thousands over the years. Think of socialist health care as being like the USA but without the insurance companies in the middle who literally do nothing but take your money and decide whether you have a right to get well. When 100,000's of Americans are financially ruined for life just for getting ill once in their life this is morally repugnant, and makes the country less competitive in the long term because the ratio of sick unproductive citizens goes up. Every first world country (minus USA) has socialist health care, and it works.
True. We would be saving money switching to a single payer. Administrative costs would go down the drain. I remember my father going in to get his sinuses checked out, so a clerk rolls in while he's in the hospital bed asking him all these financial questions and has him make a down payment right there in the hospital room for 5% of his soon to be $4,000 hospital bill just for them to tell him he's okay. Our system sucks, but nothing's going to change because Pharmaceutical companies and Insurance companies have Republicans in congress by the balls with campaign finance money.
Obviously nothing is free, but sometimes things are good investments. On the issue of healthcare it will take an extensive analysis by a panel of economists to determine whether universal health care can be less costly and have a positive stimulus on our economy. The issue is more complicated then simple rhetoric like "nothing in life is free".
None of this matters and is just theatrical nonsense that favors rich self obsessed people who have no regard for their country man, while forgetting that if not for the people that they oppress they would not mean anything (wich they don't regardless)and it don't take a political ideology tto see that.

I'm 100% progressive, I'm part of the LGBTQ+ community, I'm black(more specifically brown) , and I'm an aethist, so you can already tell that I'm not the most "conservative" person, lol. But there are some points I agree on, like Pro-life, well, not entirely. I have kind of a mixed view when it comes to abortion. If it wasn't your fault, if you got violated or sexually abused, then I can completely understand why you'd want to get an abortion. But if you're literally aware of it and decide to not wear protection or you're being irresponsible about it, then i can't really support it. I truly believe that human life isn't a thing that should be taken for granted or lightly. I'm definitely not an extremist about it and I wouldn't go on rallies waving signs that said "you're killing babies you liberal scum", but if you were 100% aware that you were creating a baby and simply decided to not care because you "could abort it later", then I don't think I can really support you on that one. I also do believe that crime should be punished more hardly. I do believe that there are a lot of social issues that cause crimes, and if there's a bigger reason as to why it's happening, I definitely do believe that there are a lot of people who shouldn't get punished for some crimes. But I absolutely cannot have empathy for someone that doesn't have empathy for other people, I like to be the devil's advocate and put myself in the shoes of everyone I interact with, but that's where the line is drawn. If you're killing and robbing innocent people for the sake of your own benefit, then you deserve to rot away in jail for the rest of your life. But those are pretty much the only two things I semi agree with conservatives/republican, I'd definitely say I'm more liberal in that general. With gun control and spendings and regulations, etc, I completely agree with liberals. But as I said, I'm not from the United States, so I don't really need to worry about this, but it's certainly interesting.

What bothers me is so much misunderstanding between the parties and name calling. I can also see that my husband from what he’s told me of his thoughts and watching this is very much strongly conservative.

it's the same for me but with my parents. I used to be super republican but took a step back and realized that I can agree with things on the left and im basically on both sides now but my parents will just resort to the libtards and stuff like that. they also act very hypocritical about politics and talking to them about politics just makes me disappointed

In regards to affirmative action I just want to clarify, as a conservative of color that we DO NOT want a “racially blind” society, but a society of racial acceptance, as described by Doctor King.
Can you explain more?
@@Brya_baby The natural or conservative stance on Affirmative Action has nothing to do with being blind to people’s races. There is an inherently deceitful constitution behind a “racial unity” that can only be accomplished by trying to “un-see” people’s identities. In contrast, the conservative position is that Affirmative Action actually hurts minorities, by specifically targeting them. So in regards to education, we don’t want society to be race-blind, we just want to make the argument that no one group should ever be treated differently than another. Even if the intention is noble, the practice is still racist, and that’s where we stand.
@@polynesianbloodline ok I sort of understand.
@@Brya_baby I’m definitely no expert and still learning too. Maybe go watch some Dr. Sowell or Walter E. Williams to explain more on natural and conservative ideas about education.

I'm no political expert, and just a high school student but here is my take. A democrat is someone who agrees with significantly more democratic ideals than republican ideals, and vice versa for republicans. I defined an independent as someone who has views that don't match with either of the typical viewpoints/ideals of democrats or republicans. As for a moderate, I think it's someone who is more 50-50 on republican vs democratic views (as you specifically asked about). If you're something like 60-40, one could say that they're a left/right-leaning moderate. Hope this helps!

Both parties has their own point but why do they have to create these ideologies? It will just divide people instead of uniting them
Hence why we need a couple of more parties.
Most conservative ideology has been in existence for thousands of years as it comes mainly from the Bible, while many liberal ideologies come from the rejection of tradition in favor of newer things. There is division because conservatives believe in the protection of constitutional rights while liberals are against them and want new ones that conservatives feel violate the rights of others. Like for example hate speech. Many liberals want the right to not be offended. To conservatives this would mean they would loose their right to free speech as they can't say anything that could offend someone. Things like this cause division because people feel like their lives are in danger if the other side wins.

Now that mid terms are coming up and a lot of younger people are getting involved for the first time - this gentleman is pretty accurate, despite the video being 4 years old. While he did not talk much about climate change and the like, and is correct that it is a mostly liberal thing, conservatives are the ones who made and still maintain the national parks. The fires in california a while back are a key example of what over regulation on the environment can do: If you over regulate the environment, letting no smalls fires start naturally because of weather, then when one finally does start...it will be much worse. I would say generally speaking, when it comes to actually working with the environment, conservatives are better at it and don't make silly mistakes because they let nature do its thing - think "farmers" and the like...while when it comes to broader areas of concern, like climate change or gas emissions, liberals are much more concerned about it and some believe that the world will end in 10 years.
Good point.
On the affirmative action issue. Conservatives dont want a race blind society. They want an individual based society....since the individual is the smallest minority and all.
you negate the consideration like it is wrong, while it is not wrong, it is the result of what you're saying. Be constructive
I'd say Conservatives want a racially blind Government, not a racially blind society
being against health care is not individualism by greed.
individualism makes individuals (including the poor, the women, ect...) the drive of the society.
The antagonist is authoritarian : the drive of the society is something external and superior to the individual ( divinity, tradition, bank account, strong leader, "market", biological category, etc.... )
none of the conservative positions are individualists.
abortion -> authoritarian forcing raped women to keep a future potential baby is not individualist
not fighting discrimination is not individualist
rigid/tough view about crime is not individualism
refusing that individual can get access to education and good health, because it harms a well filled bank account is not individualism. Serving the individual is the core purpose of public service like national education and NHS.
Non regulation of power of the elite is not individualist, it is just defense of the power. A real individualist society has democratic power in all layers of the society. Individualism push to give to worker a power on things that affect them. This is not what conservative defend.
Army is not individualist but authoritarian. Only authoritarians peoples defend a strong army.
And people think the Republican party is the Christian party.

I am a pro gun conservative but I don't mind too much on government spending on social programs. I would like having the affordable Health Care but not making it mandatory. Give us choices.
Thank you
I think my viewpoint is a bit more strange - I am extremely left in terms of my economic stance - a huge democratic government that has the power to pretty much regulate all sectors of businesses and companies, ensure tax (especially cooperate welfare tax) is extremely high to fuel and expand public services like the NHS ( I’m from England) and effectively nationalise these. Ensure money is targeted in fighting economic inequality (helping the homeless etc), fund for renewable energy etc and most of my social views are left(liberal). I’m pro abortion, anti guns, anti death penalty, but my point being I feel as if I’m against affirmative action as it seems contradictory to the goal of equality( the main goal for me) as automatically race dictates( or at least suggests your status ) and I would argue that poverty is not a result of race but rather economic factors ( which is why I’m for nationalisation) I don’t know does anyone understand?
Cam of Steel what's it like believing in things that have historically been bad for everyone? Just curious. You can call right wingers names all you want but at least the policies they want have worked before
KaiusKC What are you referring to? I’m talking about things like the NHS state free education. Active measures are made to help people who are financially disadvantaged. If your point is that a kind of socialist state is wrong well I would argue a free market capitalist country is extremely unfair and wrong because it makes the ridiculous assumption that without man made statist intervention that the world is already a kind of meritocracy which is completely wrong. I’m from England but in the U.S these ideas of Medicare, education, social services and even the huge military are ideas that are part of socialism. Today America, a first world country, has some of the worst levels poverty, pretty much 3rd world levels. America have left the Paris peace conference on climate change and its government keep time after time cutting corporate taxes for the 1%. Would you regard these as fair choices in the long run? Further there are many cases of ‘right ‘ wing governments doing awful things. I mean the big one (which is prone to all free market economies) is huge recessions. Just like the Great Depression in the 1930s which caused the majority of countries to refuse peaceful negotiations and instead invade others. Like Italy, Japan and Germany which I believe was a huge factor in getting Hitler into power and hence being a major cause of WW2. American imperialism in the 20th century lead to the government giving money power and armour to corrupt dictatorial powers in the South American countries causing mass death and poverty. It was only when Castro and others came along and improved health education and lifestyle for many South Americans. I mean I don’t agree that Castro was a good man as I disagree with many policies he made like towards Cuban nationalism and family values. But the ideas he had for helping the poor are great and it worked through a near socialist/communist economy. I mean there are many other examples of both left and right doing wrong. Rather the debate should not be that but what does a country want and what is the best system to achieve that.
Many polls have suggested that the majority of Americans basically want socialism i.e free Medicare and larger army and free education but once you mention it’s socialism they hate it which I think comes down to the agenda of American media
@@KaiusKC
you are a liar history show that left wing policies are better for everyone than right wing policies who just benefit for an elite minority .
You should think a little before writing propaganda messages.
Public education allow everyone to get high level of education -> good thing for all
public health care -> when not managed with private economy in mind, they give the best health services.
It allow the greatest number peoples to get good health service, and then better health. -> good for everyone.
private health service reduce access to good health for a lot of peoples -> bad for everyone
lack of regulation at works gives :
misery wage for workers -> bad for everyone
no access to public health service -> bad for everyone
make strong inequality , in addition of bad social state for most of peoples , it make rises criminality and other bad effects on society -> bad for everyone
not fighting pollution,means bad health or death for peoples -> bad for everyone
The best proof are Nordic countries : with heavy social/economic left wing policies ( while not socialist on dogmatic point of view ) :
They have the best Human Development Index , then left wing work better than right wing policies.
Western Europe have developed well because left wing/liberal policies made the life better than before.
Then left winf policies are better for everyone.

There's no such thing as "free" health care.
True
You're saying that as if people are making the argument that healthcare being "free" means nobody is paying for it. No liberal makes that argument. Not a single one. Everyone agrees that "Free Healthcare" means the care is paid for either through taxes or by some other means. Now you can argue the merits of how devastating that tax would be, that's fine, that's at least a valid debate. What's not a valid debate is purposefully misrepresenting people's ideas and words, like the word "free" in an effort to avoid a rational discord on the matter.
DPMixing The USA health system is not just double the UK, it's double that of practically every other first world country. On a graph the USA sticks out like a sore thumb. The USA has decent health care, but nearly half of the money goes to insurance companies who try every trick in the book to deny you health care when you need it, even after paying in 10's or 100’s thousands over the years. Think of socialist health care as being like the USA but without the insurance companies in the middle who literally do nothing but take your money and decide whether you have a right to get well. When 100,000's of Americans are financially ruined for life just for getting ill once in their life this is morally repugnant, and makes the country less competitive in the long term because the ratio of sick unproductive citizens goes up. Every first world country (minus USA) has socialist health care, and it works.

I remember my father going in to get his sinuses checked out, so a clerk rolls in while he's in the hospital bed asking him all these financial questions and has him make a down payment right there in the hospital room for 5% of his soon to be $4,000 hospital bill just for them to tell him he's okay.
Our system sucks, but nothing's going to change because Pharmaceutical companies and Insurance companies have Republicans in congress by the balls with campaign finance money.
Obviously nothing is free, but sometimes things are good investments. On the issue of healthcare it will take an extensive analysis by a panel of economists to determine whether universal health care can be less costly and have a positive stimulus on our economy. The issue is more complicated then simple rhetoric like "nothing in life is free".
None of this matters and is just theatrical nonsense that favors rich self obsessed people who have no regard for their country man, while forgetting that if not for the people that they oppress they would not mean anything (wich they don't regardless)and it don't take a political ideology tto see that.
I've been watching countless videos going over both parties, trying to sort out the truth of the ideals past the biased opinions. This is probably the best video so far at trying to be unbiased. I think i personally lean more towards the Liberal/Democratic approach, but i kinda agree with some conservative/Republican ideals. For example i agree kinda agree with conservatives on gun laws, and a strong military is a good one.
Thanks man, I’m a conservative. The thing that scares me the most is our gun rights being taken away.
@UCHlwv41_-iLFRce0rj8xybQ Then why are you voting red idiot. I urge you to look up which party has been attacking gun laws.
@@pnwfisher2144 Also "don't tread on me". Don't tell me you back the blue?
@@ofimportance5458 Who doesn’t? Why wouldn’t someone want to support our heroic men and women in blue?
@@ofimportance5458 Dell tell me you support the murder of hundreds of thousands of innocent babies.
Good job Khan, can count on you to do the impossible. I think this has to be one of the more unbiased explanations of American Politics ever produced.
Conservative is the choice of rich people
I would be grouped in as a 'conservative' and I'm poor. Not everything is about what's in your or somebody else's bank account
