Why liberals hate America
It is a proposition widely accepted among the left that conservatives vote liberally in support of self-interest, whereas they vote liberally in support of the interests of others. This inclination, they assert, applies to many contested realms, with the chief and most contested realm relating to economic policy. Liberals are, as they tenderly delineate it, those with a rich concern for the economic interests of others, whereas conservatives are those with a rich concern for the economic interests of self. But is this proposition in fact fair, or even true? And if it is, economic disparities being what they are in most societies, is this why liberals seem at times to hate and conservatives to love their country? And if not, what is it about being a liberal that makes someone hate his country and being a conservative love hers? Or as many conservatives ask, why do liberals hate America?
