Voters also have a gut instinct – usually, though not always, correct – that parties of the traditional left will tax and spend more, and that those of the right will do the opposite. The way voters respond reflects the way they perceive recent history and what they want for themselves and their families in the future.
选民们通常也相信直觉——虽然直觉并不总正确——即传统左翼党派往往会多征税多开支，而右翼党派则恰恰相反。选民们对此的反应体现出他们对近期局势的看法，以及他们希望自己和家人拥有什么样的未来。我认同选民们往往能够做出正确的判断。
