The PC mindset is not a conservativization. It is a consequence of the abolishment of traditional categories brought about by the 60s and 70s. Once you decide the known categorizations are wrong for being oppressive and conceived from a single point of view, you know longer have anchors.
The relationship between war and ideology is more complicated. With the specific exception of fascist states, it is unclear that right or left wing regimes are more peaceful or warlike. This question has bothered social thinkers since the times of Classical era Greece and China. And we are no closer to a resolution now than before. De-regulation would be letting the banks fail. Bailouts are welfare for millionaires, not de-regulation. College debt grew both because the government acts as insurer to the colleges, essentially removing any incentive to contain their fees to make them payable; and because graduates (and their parents!) are banned from bankrupting on that debt, removing that one incentive to keep loans payable too. In both cases, that is not de-regulation, again, but welfare for college administrators. (Not even researchers and professors, much less students) Conservatives capitulated to Wilson on the income tax (http://image.patriotpost.us/2013-04-18-alexander-3.jpg) and central banking, to FDR on gold confiscation, to RINO Nixon on the final de-linking from gold... that is a lot! And now there is a generalized capitulation to the imperialists in order to ban sharia banking, because of how Islamic banks cannot charge interest or use partial reserve (which makes them more resilient to all financial crises and shocks and more adequate to loan to the middle and lower class) Again that is a lot! As for youth rights, I trust the main thrust will come from the Peaceful Parenting movement. And they have a lot of anarcho-capitalists in there. |
