This gives them a nice excuse to therefore not be help responsible for their actions - it was the state, the genes, the aliens etc
fact is they are looking to be part of system that supports them no matter what the expense.

I am however prepared to believe people with better self determination would challenge lefty mantras and wholesale acceptance of all people's foibles based on their skin colour.
They were also asked whether they agreed with statements about typically right-wing and socially conservative politics such as, 'Give law breakers stiffer sentences,' and 'Schools should teach children to obey authority.'

Left-wingers can't control themselves as well as conservatives, claims study | Daily Mail Online
No wonder student protests always turn into brawls! Left-wingers can't control themselves as well as conservatives, claims study
Scientists tested the abilities conservative students and 'liberals'
They classed conservatives as those who endorse traditional values
While liberals 'endorse egalitarian ideals and progressive change'
Conservatives were better at 'regulating attention' and persisting with tasks and the difference was linked to how closely they believed in free will
The reason for the difference, the authors found is those on the right are more likely to believe that they have free will and that individuals have the power to change things.
US scientists tested the abilities of undergraduates who considered themselves politically conservative (David Cameron pictured) and 'liberals'. They found conservatives were better at 'regulating attention' and persisting with tasks and the difference between the groups was linked to how closely they believed in free will

They found conservatives were better at 'regulating attention' and persisting with tasks and the difference between the groups was linked to how closely they believed in free will
The leftists by contrast believe that everything is controlled by forces outside of their control - such as by their genes or society, the researchers claim.
In three studies, US scientists tested the abilities of two groups: undergraduates who considered themselves politically conservative and 'liberals'.Tags: None
