    Yeah, unfortunately that is sort of the core of what actual conservatism is. “Don’t change ANYTHING, that’s SCARY!”

    And then what “conservatism” has become today, also leads to the same result: “Let us all protect the vulnerable billionaires! At ANY cost!”

        Interesting video. Thanks for that. I wasn’t saying that conservatives actually ever lived up to what they used to say they were striving for, though. I was speaking in a hypothetical sense, granting them the benefit of doubt, admittedly undeservedly.
