WORKS FOR ME!
I guess, your quote from Hayek fully describes your position expressed above: "The conservative does not object to coercion or arbitrary power so long as it is used for what he regards as the right purposes. Like the socialist, he is less concerned with the problem of how the powers of government can be limited than with that of who wields them; and like the socialist, he regards himself as entitled to force the value he holds on other people.
I wonder whether you stopped for a second to reflect on that.
