Small C Conservatism

A person who is conservative in the sense that they don't like change, rather than being Conservative in the sense that they are right wing.

In Canada, it can also mean the Conservative parties in general, rather than THE Conservative Party.

The British Medical Association is an example of Small C Conservatism. The BMA opposed the creation of the National Health Service by Atlee's left wing government, but now opposes the reforms to it that are being proposed by Cameron's right wing government.

Conservatism

Conservatism is a political philosophy for a ruling class and economics – it recognizes a poor class and supports the fact that it will always exist, and it goes on to talk about the elitist class (the wealthy or upper class) – Conservatives believe that this elitist class is the superior class and they deserve to be the ruling class. The elitist class has no obligation to the lower classes. They believe the elitist class is the elitist class because they work harder and are smarter then the lower classes – therefore they deserver positions of power. Conservatism is basically a survival of the fittest philosophy.

For example Ronald Reagan exemplified the conservative ideals with his theory of supply-side economy better know as Reaganomics.

Conservatism

A political ideology that is popular among the white people that believes in a conspiracy theory that Jews are smuggling in immigrants to overthrow the white people and that white people are perfect and superior to the other races, but it is actually used to scam white people out of basic necessities like healthcare or social security.

Conservatism also hates science, and rejects vaccines and denies climate change.

White people: Conservatism will save our superior race, so I'm going to vote against my own interests. Who needs healthcare and vaccines? All I need is my racist hatred.

Other people: Yea... sounds about white.

Conservatism

Like communism is portrayed in the U.S., looks good on paper, doesn't work very well when implicated. However, communism actually works sometimes, unlike this, and taxes are what you have to deal with if you don't want an idiot to be your president, don't vote for conservatists, unless you are really convinced it will work. However, to prevent the American revolution from repeating, one of them every 200 years is good enough.

Who the heck ever thought conservatism would actually work?
