\nEverything you hear about government breaks it down into a horizontal rule. There exists the \u201cright\u201d, the \u201cleft\u201d, and the \u201cmoderate\u201d. Your ideologies, beliefs and desires place you somewhere on that line. As a basic psychological principal it\u2019s true. The French origination of the idea of left and right considers left the \u201cparty of movement\u201d and right the \u201cparty of order.\u201d That meant monarchical, strong government supporters on the right, and republican, personal freedom revolutionaries on the left.
\nIn today\u2019s terms we generally hear the far left as socialist or communist and the far right as fascist. There is a trick to the new order though. It leaves big government alive and well at both sides of the spectrum, and creates the belief that your choice is between big government A and big government B. Robert Maclver pushed this idea in the 1940\u2032s and made a right v left determination that implied a class struggle \u2013 big government rich executives on the right, and big government welfare on the left.
\nSince there is no officially defined terms of right and left in the world, or even in the U.S. as it stands, I propose it is time to look at this in a different light. Move fascists, communists, socialist, Democrats and Republicans to the left and call that \u201cBig Government\u201d, and move Libertarians, classical conservatives and anarchists to the right and call that \u201cLittle Government.\u201d Now the common man has a choice in how much control his government exerts over him. He can bow to welfare, war, taxes, conscription, laws, and pressure of big government, or he can attempt to find the self-control and respect necessary for little government. The choice becomes how much the common man can provide to government and not a choice of what big government should provide to the common man.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
