My decision making process regarding social and economic issues.

I don't think people understand that when I support issues, I generally support certain things because of research and my own observations/experiences. I also weigh the benefits and risk of an outcome and if the benefits outweigh the risk, I'll support it.

I actually make decisions that way that are non political too.

It's others who decide that things are left or right but if the things that I mostly support are leftist, then so be it.

I still boggle at people that don't do this.

@Dolimyte Most don't

@Dolimyte It's because they don't want to think too hard. And that's not saying they're not necessarily intelligent, although a lot of them aren't. It's mostly laziness. These people do not want to exert any energy thinking about what's best for them, so they are content to be told. That's why, when you try to tell people they don't want a president who's going to gut Social Security, and they don't want Kennedy in charge of the pharmacies, they look at you as if you've grown a second head and spout the same old "But Brawndo's got what plants crave" BS.

@LordShadowfire plants do need electrolytes.
