The psychology of facts, versus ingrained beliefs, is part of the political picture, and has evolved into a religion-like discussion. It so often affects economics and the business picture.
Conservatives, for example, claim their economic stance is based on the written constitution, and on historic economic fact. Those events that actually happened in this country and around the world, and say they are reacting to those events.
Liberals, on the other hand, tend to react on the basis of their beliefs, the way life and things ought to be. If the constitution does not remedy what they believe is wrong today, they would simply adjust the meaning of the constitution. And if the majority of voters don’t want that change, they would find a like-minded judge to rule for the change.
Unfortunately, many dictatorships have started with precisely this easy method of adapting government constitutions or basic rulings to what well-meaning folks think ought to be.
