By conserfative, I mean one of those less-than-wealthy wingnut loyalists who stand up for the poor put-upon aristocrats of wealth in moronic support of policies that further enrich the fatcats and beggar the conserfatives. These moronic loyalists think of themselves as independent and clear-thinking, when in fact they yearn for a strongman and are the easiest sheeple to pull the wool over.
Just to clear that up, if it needed it...

When I say conserfative

In order for me to respond to this, I need to know one thing. Do you make the Kool-Aid or do you just drink it?
I'm still waiting for an answer.....
I'm thinking of a joke I learned in junior high school.
One has to assume that liberal policies would help the poor in order for your statement to be coherent. The facts are that only capitalism, which conservatives support and liberals bash, lets people who start at the bottom move up in life. Liberal policies can only make the rich poor and grow the size of the government. Everyone loses with liberalism, I guess that's your idea of equality.
A few contrary facts:
Economic mobility is clearly strongest when government and unions provide a strong counterweight to today's corporatist rapacity.
The role of government is to assure fair and rational markets by regulation of market power and externalities, by support of learning, and by providing opportunity and education widely across all segments of society.
The role of unions is to be powerful enough that vast monopolistic corporations have to negotiate with a stronger economic peer than a single worker.
Your ridiculous views suggest that you're a conserfative, too.
By the way, the economy is clearly better under Democrats - even for the wealthy. But the wealthy want a bigger share, even if that share is smaller.
