It makes sense. And really, it's a good thing. In society, we need a balance of people who have a healthy dose of fear, along with others who aren't afraid to make changes.

Except it is not fear. It's called self-preservation, the survival instinct, if you will, which apparently is not present in the liberal mind.

No, it is associated with fear. You can call it whatever you want, but protecting yourself stems from a healthy dose of fear. Everyone has it to one extent or another. If we didn't, most of us we be dead at a very young age.
So what? There are many successful people who are conservative.
Hey, put it back in your pants.
The issue here is that (surprise, surprise) as a general rule conservatives and liberals actually do think differently. That there might be a biological component to the difference is also a pretty unsurprising thing.
And thinking differently has consequences. I merely pointed out one of them.
Considering how many people I see that end up with a conservative or liberal mindset depending on where they grow up or end up living--I find these conservatives/liberals have different brain theories fairly humorous. So what do true libertarians brains look like? What about anarchists?
I think political choice in this country is in a way kind of a default to your cultural upbringing at some level. The people in my family that are conservative, grew up in conservative families in conservative areas... The ones that are more liberal grew up in more urban, liberal areas. Big fricking surprise.

Or you could just be a sociopath.
