I agree with Monti here, Poor people want Government to help, while those who have it better wants gov to stay away.

That's not necessarily true ...

There are elements of liberalism and conservatism that both the poor and the rich may be attracted to. Consider stances on crime as an example, while some wealthier people support tough crime laws because they have more to lose a lot of poor people support them because they’re more directly impacted by crime on a daily basis; while at the same time some wealthier people believe rehabilitation will lower crime long term and some poor people believe that they shouldn’t be unfairly punished for their mistakes.

I can’t think of a single issue where there is a significant disagreement between liberals and conservatives which is so simple that there is a cut-n-dry separation between the rich and poor.

Again, maybe I should be more clear. Poor people always want more Government involvement into their lives, While Rich People do not.
