Statism (eg universal healthcare) and conservatism are mutually incompatible.

The word "conservative" is as meaningless today as "liberal".

Orwell thought words would just be outlawed and expunged. In fact words (and so thought) are being so larded with contradictory meanings that they are useless. There are socialists in Congress who proudly proclaim their conservationism.

Yes, I've been waiting for the rocket surgeon who can explain why his version of "more free stuff" is conservative.
