Quote:Conservatism is about retaining the culture and traditional structures is it not?

You have the social aspect. Conservatism VS Liberalism used to boil down to simple ideas on that. Marriage rules, abortions, etc.

Conservative government is about free labor and trade, and supposed to be less government interference. The Constitution should not be changed or altered (but then we'd never have progressed the way a society should)

But D.C. is so polluted none of it makes any sense anymore. You have conservative liberals, and liberal conservatives, Like Killary and Trump. Far left nuts like Bernie and far right weirdos like Ted Cruz.

 

Libertarians have a better view in my opinion. (but I don't agree with the entire platform) Your social life is your own and that is between you and YOUR God.

Government stay out of my life your entire and only purpose is to serve and protect the people, period.

 

Problem with the left is they've been programmed to believe they need it (the government) this way and the right is all wrong for having differing opinions on things that matter or a morality level. How are you going to tell someone with Christian beliefs they are not allowed to be anti-abortion? That's just as wrong as them telling you you can't -insert one of many cants-

And the right has been so screwed up for so long that they actually lost their primary to a lifelong liberal in Donald Trump.

 

The two party system is dead. 

So the whole liberalism vs conservatism thing is silly...

 

Because I'm willing to bet anyone in their late 20's early to mid 30s probably has some liberal and some conservative beliefs. Anyone too old to come around to society will be dead soon. I'm worried about our youth though... Being sold some bad stuff from both sides.

And the crazies well... they are the ones still so far left (or right) that they believe they are owed something for nothing just by being (or that their godly rules are broken by so many that Hell and the Rapture itself are upon us.)
