Political choices make you free, citizen

I love this blog post on Lew Rockwell:

Democrats: Political Party favoring welfare and warfare
Republicans: Political Party favoring welfare and warfare
Liberals: Political Party favoring welfare and warfare
Conservatives: Political Party favoring welfare and warfare
Fascists: Political Party favoring welfare and warfare
Socialists: Political Party favoring welfare and warfare
Communists: Political Party favoring welfare and warfare
Nazis: Political Party favoring welfare and warfare

BTW, if anyone can write in and tell me the real substantive differences between the British Labour party and the British Conservative party, then I'd be pleased to hear from you, particularly over the NHS, the war in Afghanistan, the war on drugs, membership of the EU, membership of the UN, the legality of the war in Iraq, the need for British nuclear weapons, the need for the state to 'share' any increases in wealth, the need for state provision of education, the need for state provision of welfare, the need for central banking, the need for government subsidy of favoured groups, the need for government sponsorship of the Arts, or indeed, any other matter which couldn't fit onto the head of the pin.

Conservative central office posters are particularly welcome, particularly anyone who remembers hearing Michael Portillo's 'Clear Blue Water' speech.
