Talk:Conservative parables (view source)
Revision as of 04:18, March 20, 2011
, 04:18, March 20, 2011→The Flop: Liberals prefer government control, which the opposite of innovation.
I'm not sure how this is a conservative parable. Even the most hardened conservative can agree that innovation is not an exclusively conservative realm; while it was foolish of Fosbury's competitors to mock him and his approach, it fail to see how his perseverance was "conservative". For example, Apple Computers, a liberal company, faced much criticism in its early days (and even now), but has continued to innovate in its field.

:Apple is not particularly liberal and, regardless, innovation is a conservative concept. Liberals prefer government control, which the opposite of innovation.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 00:18, 20 March 2011 (EDT)
