Conservatism is harmless by comparison: it does not wreck economies for the sheer hell of it; capitalism is based on sound principles; under capitalism - more ultimately benefit than under socialism. The moderate right understand that in order for the poor to benefit - it is not about the size of relative shares but rather, is about increasing the economy.
How can you give any hope to people from a position of bankruptcy?
Socialism is based on hatred; it spills bile at those who challenge its tenets; it defends the illogical by shouting opponents down - and yes - it is uncaring!
It works more to fashionable hypotheses and distorted, unworkable philosophies than it ever does to pragmatically helping the destitute.
