Question

How can both liberals and conservatives favor greater scope of government?

Answer 1

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Liberals and Conservatives favor greater scope of government in the following way.

Liberals support the idea that the government supports equality for the citizens. They agree on getting more government money to be used in the creation of more social programs aimed to help the ones in need. Sometimes this means increasing taxes to get the money for social programs. Liberals also favor a great scope of the government in creating legislation that supports diversity, tolerance, and immigration.

Conservatives do not agree with the idea of a government that promotes equality. They favor a greater scope of the government to promote order and respect in society, although equality is not one of their priorities. They also favored a great scope of the government to create strict legislation to support traditional American values, suppress abortion, and increases military expenditure.
