There are almost no real Conservative charitable organizations, and far fewer than Catholic charities.  There are no [[creationists and hospitals|creationist hospitals]], for example.  Fundamentalists donate to charity at far lower rate than Everyone Else.

Nations that become more atheistic have fewer donations to charitable causes.  Canadians, for example, donate to charity at a far lower rate than Americans, who tend to be more religious.

Both in theory and in practice, the libertarian ideology allows or even encourages selfishness regardless of what economists describe as negative [[externalities]] (negative effects on others).  For example, libertarians typically favor legalizing drugs, even though harmful effects of drug addiction can hurt others through an increase in driving accidents, higher health care costs, and even murders.

Both in theory and in practice, the conservative ideology allows or even encourages selfishness regardless of what economists describe as negative [[externalities]] (negative effects on others).  For example, conservatives typically favor legalizing stupidity (I.E. Creationism), even though harmful effects of such idiocy can hurt others through an increase in driving accidents, higher education costs, and even creating horrific parodies of sites such as wikipedia.

[[Ayn Rand]], the leading libertarian philosopher of the 20th century, wrote a book entitled "The Virtue of Selfishness."  She gave a commencement address at West Point during which she "explained" to the cadets how they were motivated by their selfishness to serve their nation, and how selfishness is a good thing.
