#35 – What is the Left and Right: A Conversation About the Right

In this episode, Virgil continues the discussion about the left and right with his guests D and Matt. In this podcast, we go into more detail of what the term "right" is, particularly in respects to the cultural, moral, social, economic, psychological aspects of the various groups on the right and how they might or might not have something in common with the left. This episode includes a discussion on the Moral Foundations Theory and what the moral psychology of people traditionally on the right is. When then contrast the rights morals foundations to liberals and libertarians to better understand one another and the basis to our moral foundations. We then discuss the social and cultural aspects of the right in respects to movements and government action. Finally, we discuss what various groups on the right believes is right in terms of economics and how that translates to public policy.
