left vs. right

I don't know why this concept suddenly struck me as being so profound, and I know it's going to sound generalistic, but think about it:

The Left is concerned primarily with economics and divides the world into "rich" and "poor." The Right is concerned primarily with values and divides the world into "good" and "evil."

How about "legal" vs. "moral?"

"To the Left, legality matters most, while to the Right, legality matters far less than morality. To the Right and to the religious, the law, when it is doing its job, is only a vehicle to morality, never a moral end in itself."

"In fact, since it lacks the self-control apparatus that is a major part of religion, the Left passes more and more laws to control people. That is why there is a direct link between the decline in Judeo-Christian religion and the increase in governmental laws controlling human behavior."
