I've never understood how the "keep the government out of my life" party is also the "I disagree with the way you live your life so I'm going to ban your very existence" party. Do they not see the hypocrisy? What a complete and utter lack of self awareness.
Conservatism has exactly one position, and understanding it will provide consistency to the entire political philosophy:
"The government must protect but not bind my group, and it must bind but not protect those not in my group."
The more conservatism, the more you go towards feudalism. Where staying poor and obedient for the rich elite is your godgiven duty. Monopolies need to be protected, as they act with god's mandate. Social rights are being formulated by a religious figurehead.
If every American exclusively votes for Conservatives for the next 100 years, America will revert to a confederation of Anglican and Catholic kingdoms.
