Another interesting view about Bush and Kerry (source: businessweek.com).
Risk preferences.
Bush seemingly approves of personal risk over government/organization taking risk while Kerry thinks otherwise. One example is the Social security. Bush is for privatising social security wherein people put in a small amount in an account and there is a chance for the private company to invest. Therein a part of the risk is transferred to the individual and if the economy does well, he is in very good stead and also vice-versa.
But Kerry is against privatising social security.
Kerry - Congress/Left??
Bush - BJP??? :-)
