Conservatives Are From Mars, Socialists Are From Venus

The very popular book Men are From Mars, Women are from Venus suggests that men and women not only communicate differently; but that we see the world differently.   Gosh, that is also so true related to Conservatives and Socialists in the United States.   Our country has never been more divided since the Civil War because Conservatives Are From Mars and Socialists Are From Venus.   The majority of people living in Red States do not see our country and the world the way the majority of Socialists in Blue States see the world.  

Conservatives are self reliant believers in the American Dream.   We believe that anyone can succeed if they are willing to get a great education and work very hard.   Socialists instead portray all of their PEEP's as helpless victims that have suffered lack of success not because of their own actions, or intelligence; but instead because of George W Bush, Big Business, Rich People, Evil Capitalism and the need for bigger government to "help them".   Of course, there are the cultural wars, as well.  Conservatives cling to our religion, guns, traditional families and moral values.   Socialists are Secularists who often hate religion, fear gun owners and push for the "modern family", which means every combination; but traditional marriage between a man and a woman and an anything goes morality. 

Conservatives support limited, smaller government, lower taxes, less regulation, a strong national defense, rugged individualism, fewer people on the dole and free market capitalism.   Socialist support bigger government, higher taxes, more regulations, a weak national defense, collectivism, more people on the dole and Crony Capitalism where the government picks winners and losers.   Conservatives want the government off our backs.  Socialists support government intrusion into all aspects of daily life.  

Obviously, Conservatives and Socialists have irreconcilable differences.   There is no half way compromise possible between all of these positions.   This is the reason Conservatives oppose RINO's, that have gone along to get along, feeding at the trough, allowing 100 years of Socialist Creep.   Conservatives Are From Mars and Socialists Are From Venus.   We don't speak the same language and perhaps never will.   Let us hope that these major differences don't result in another Civil War.    Instead, the only logical option is total victory at the polls to cause the demise of the Socialist Party of America.   There is no other way.
