My friend, you have things backward. The WOD is what empowers politicians to expand government and enslave people. The WOD has been used as the justification to vastly expand police powers, increase funding for all kinds of programs and angencies, and violate people and property.
Conservatism is about individual responsibility.
Do not Conservatives support the WOD and Social Security? The WOD and Social Security presume that the government must forcibly take care of people who won't take care of themselves.
Real Conservatives do not support Social Security or any kind of welfare program. We are trying to convince people that they should be outlawed, which is not an easy job. Would Libertarians support the legalization of drugs before we manage to outlaw welfare programs?
