The definitions of the terms liberal and conservative have changed many times in American history. By the late 1970s, all of the following statements would be accurate descriptions of liberals EXCEPT: A. Liberals tend to believe that government should take an active role in solving the problems of society. B. Liberals tend to have a favorable view of the economic and social programs of the New Deal and the Great Society. C .Liberals want to reduce the role of government in the lives of ordinary people. D. Liberals accept a greater amount of government regulation of the economy.

The correct answer is C. It is not true that liberals want to reduce the role of government in the lives of ordinary people.

Liberals, overwhelmingly voters of the Democratic Party, are the political group located to the left of the national political spectrum, rivaling conservatives who mostly vote for the Republican Party.

Liberals believe in a greater government presence in regulating the country's social and economic policies. Thus, they support Keynesian economic measures and greater regulation of the economy, thus avoiding the injustices that the free market may cause. In addition, on social issues, they clearly support the rights of minorities and are in favor of the government's presence as a provider of health and education services at a general level.
