This is not very scientific and I have some moral issues with the alternative (survival of the fittest), but what do you all think?
What I am getting at is
Most people that label themselves as "liberals" are strong supporters of evolutionary theory.
Evolutionary theory (correct me if I am wrong) revolves around natural selection.
Most people that label themselves "liberals" are strong supporters of a government that is somewhat socialistic. Even conservative types are this way just to a lesser degree in most cases.
Well, those two ideals conflict with each other.
If one strongly believed in evolution (and that evolution was the preferred method of progressing through time) then one should (I think) be against social programs.
Right?
