To me it seems that terms like left and right are not as straight forward as one thinks. It seems in America left means wanting the best for the biggest amount of people. My definition was what we were told in Germany. And the British definition seems to be different, too.
This is just another argument for my hate of people starting arguments with something like :"I as a left/liberal etc..." Nobody knows what these terms mean and still people let them decide their opinion.
Maybe a thread about direct democracy could help both of us to make up our mind on it.
