Conservative or Liberal

A cute story was sent to me this weekend. Kinda explains the definition so anyone can understand it.

 A young woman was about to finish her first year of college.  Like so
many others her age, she considered herself to be very liberal, and among
other liberal ideals, was very much in favor of higher taxes to support more
government programs, in other words redistribution of wealth.
 She was deeply ashamed that her father was a rather staunch
conservative, a feeling she openly expressed.  Based on the lectures that she had
participated in, and the occasional chat with a professor, she felt that
her father had for years harbored an evil, selfish desire to keep what he
thought should be his.
 One day she was challenging her father on his opposition to higher
taxes on the rich and the need for more government programs.
 The self-professed objectivity proclaimed by her professors had to be
the truth and she indicated so to her father.  He responded by asking how
she was doing in school.
 Taken aback, she answered rather haughtily that she had a 4.0 GPA, and
let him know that it was tough to maintain, insisting that she was taking a
very difficult course load and was constantly studying, which left her no
time to go out and party like other people she knew.  She didn't even have time
for a boyfriend, and didn't really have many college friends because she
spent all her time studying.
 Her father listened and then asked, "How is your friend Audrey doing?"
 She replied, "Audrey is barely getting by.  All she takes are easy
classes, she never studies and she barely has a 2.0 GPA.  She is so popular on
campus; college for her is a blast.  She's always invited to all the
parties and lots of times she doesn't even show up for classes because she's too
hung over."
 Her wise father asked his daughter, "Why don't you go to the Dean's
office and ask him to deduct 1.0 off your GPA and give it to your friend who
only has a 2.0.  That way you will both have a 3.0 GPA and certainly that
would be a fair and equal distribution of GPA."
 The daughter, visibly shocked by her father's suggestion, angrily fired
back, "That's a crazy idea, how would that be fair!  I've worked really
hard for my grades!  I've invested a lot of time, and a lot of hard work!
Audrey has done next to nothing toward her degree.  She played while I worked
my tail off!"
 The father slowly smiled, winked and said gently, "Welcome to the
conservative side of the fence."

I thought you might enjoy it.
