  • IMO at a base level this isn’t an inherently evil thing to believe/want.

    Not evil, but misguided. All of these things are euphemisms for destroying (or not having in the first place) social safety nets, letting deregulated corporations run amok and replacing the rule of law with the rule of the richest. And most people who say they want these euphemisms don’t understand that, otherwise they wouldn’t want them. Because the consequences are objectively bad for at least 90% of people in any given country.

    Btw, none of these things you mention are “conservative values”.





  • Nope. In countries with universal healthcare life expectancy sadly is still dependent on wealth. Better food, better doctors, lower chance of having a hazardous job, better ability to rest instead of rushing back to work etc etc.

    (i.e. Germany: About 5 years on average between poorest and richest.) Inequality is bad for us, everywhere.
