As I don’t like the term “liberal” because it is a misnomer and misleading, I don’t like the word “conservative” because it implies wanting to “conserve” the status quo.

There’s a few things I have against the standard “conservative” line of thinking as I understand it.

1) Preserving the status quo. I hate the status quo. I want to blow it up and move on.

2) Love of laws. There are too many laws, way too many. The more laws, the more government coercion, the less freedom. Most federal laws are unconstitutional which by definition are invalid laws and tyranny.

3) Not enough focus on cutting big federal government and getting it back into its constitutional cage. By my reckoning, about $3 trillion of the $4 trillion federal government is unconstitutional. That’s $3 trillion funding federal tyranny. BIGGEST political problem we have in America IMO.

Thats what happens when ‘conservatives’ redefine what it actually was always about. And why people today are confused.
