What does “conservative” even mean anymore?
“”What does “conservative” even mean anymore?””
Above all, less government. Less regulations, less restrictions, less government control over our short hairs. Will that ever actually be achieved? Probably not... because too many (like yourself) don’t know what Conservatism actually is and don’t want to know... and too many others don’t want what it means for America ...ie tightening the fiscal belt.
A balanced national budget was achieved once and only once. You don’t even have to ask why that was never done again. It’s has to do with cutting funding to pet projects and most in Congress (and their constituents) are too greedy and addicted to that federal taxpayer $$$ pouring in to their states. Gotta keep the cash flowing “in”.
