This juxtaposition made me uncomfortable and now I see why.

Are we selecting between wealth and security?

The left says yes. Its either wealth or security. The better off you are, the worse off everyone else must be as a result. The better of the world is, the more you're going to have to sacrifice, because you are western, and your comfortable life is made from the blood of the poor.

The right says no. Its not a zero sum game. Its not an either or. Its a both or neither. The better off everyone else is, the better off you'll be, and the better off you'll be, the better off everyone else is.

Both sides seem to be talking past eachother, and we can't get past the dialog.
