I never understood what is a liberal. I believe both conservatives and "liberals" support liberalism, because both support a capitalist economy and a society build on individual rights, freedom and personal choice, even if both parties have different interpretations. IMO, if you're not anti-capitalist, you default to being a liberal because you need liberalism to support capitalism. Conservatives are much closer to liberals than with socialists, communists, 3rdpositionists and other rightists, technocrats and so on - Most of what they argue about is pointless and constitutes a minimal difference.
Yeah, it America both the Conservatives and Liberals largely believe in a mixed economy of both the private sector and the government. The difference between them in vastly overstated.
