This is about whenever contradiction show up in a system what the general responses would be, but if you want a specific example by me.

I posit that privatized healthcare is a contradiction, base capitalism relies on supply and demand and healthcare will always have infinite demand. So profit motive =/= health motive.

According to the chart, the lefist would suggest getting rid of privatized healthcare in favor of universal healthcare funded by the government without patent gatekeeping.

The conservative would simply not acknowledge any flaw or contradiction.

The centrist would keep the system and implement bandaid half solutions, like state insurance or Obamacare.
