Really good analogy. You forgot one political difference.

What do the Democrats believe in?

Democratic platforms seek to promote social programs, labor unions, consumer protection, workplace safety regulation, equal opportunity, disability rights, racial equity, regulations against environmental pollution, and criminal justice reform.

What do Republicans believe in?

To this end, they advocate in favor of laissez-faire economics, limited government, free markets and free trade, tax cuts, reduced government spending, privatization, and the reduction of government run welfare programs in favor of private-sector nonprofits and encouraging personal responsibility.

In closing, why do Republicans claim to be "Pro-life" against abortion, but they are in favor of the death penalty on crime prevention?
