I think conservatism is really a misnomer just as liberalism is a misnomer for the liberals — if we were back in the days of the Revolution, so-called conservatives today would be the Liberals and the liberals would be the Tories. The basis of conservatism is a desire for less government interference or less centralized authority or more individual freedom and this is a pretty general description also of what libertarianism is.|||[[Ronald Reagan]]}}

I believe in very [[limited government]], to the point where it can only regulate things such as contracts and principles of basic morality (do not kill, do not steal, etc.).
