- Quite true, though I'd say that a simple, one-dimensional "left-right"
- probably isn't enough (Where do the Libertarians fit? A wheat farmer
- favoring price supports (i.e., gov't intervention) and "family
- values"? The New Paradigmists?). Not to mention defining what "left"
- and "right" actually mean for each issue (Where does censorship of
- pornography lie, for instance? Some feminists will ally with "family
- value" conservatives.).
