Conservatives are fearless believers of individual freedom, which is a radical thought to these progressives who fear human nature. Conservatives are the ones saying "F_uck Off" and are trying to prevent this government take over of our lives, and if need be, inject a little anarchy in the democratic process to halt this big government agenda in it's tracks. Sorry if I digressed from the topic, but I think it be cool to see some sort of punk movement in politics, where a politicians would practice a minimalism and just say what the truth is, instead of layering a lot sorts of complexities and political correctness that always needs to be filtered to understand what they just said.
Interestingly, conservatives want to control "our" lives more than liberals in terms of abortion and drug legislation. And if you think there is equal opportunity to success under a laissez-faire regime, you're insane. The social inequalities create barriers for people born in the lower classes, that hinders their ability to achieve financial or social progress.
