In many situations, politicians, advocates and others can and do cause confusion concerning political issues. This happens when people indiscriminately apply terms such as democracy, socialism, dictatorships and capitalism to political and economic systems. This practice tends to create defective opinions because of the lack of standardized definitions. This can be the result of the lack of knowledge concerning them and also in cases where this is done to exploit these terms as to support a political-economic bias.

Politics, economics, and societal construction are not established disciplines for which there is one unequivocal right answer in the same way that mathematics is such a discipline. While reasonable people cannot disagree about what the solution is to a maths problem, they can disagree about which particular governmental policies are better to employ or not. Necessarily, this will lead to confusion and disagreement since not all sides can agree on what the outcome of a particular policy would be nor what the interests underlying the policy are. As a result, as each politician, economist, or sociologist describes his position, there are bound to be others with nearly the opposite perspective.
