Left-wing Vs Right-wing politics: A Western view of comparison

Left-wing politics generally refers to relatively more liberal or progressive
views, a new way of thinking about political & economic ideology. These views
are based on the belief that people are basically good or close to be an altruistic.
The government is responsible to take care of all people to some extent. Left-
wing politics ultimately becomes socialism. Right-wing politics usually refers to
relatively more conservative or regressive view in the sense that people do not
want to accept any change. People would like to stay the same as they are
currently doing or used to be in the recent past. If any change in the society
takes place, people wouldn’t go with it. If any change has already taken place,
people would like to be back to the circumstance with which they used to be.
Right-wing politicians assume that people are selfish by born. Their selfish
nature is very natural. There is no free lunch
