Heads us, kiddies.
Our economic system DEMANDS both winners and losers.
Can't have one set without the other.
You are on the right track, techie...but far behind.
Your error is the word 'demand.'
Conservatives ACCEPT that there will be differences...
Conservatives believe in the principle of variety, while liberal perspectives result in a narrowing uniformity. Conservatives believe in choice of healthcare, education, religion, and various other areas. Under conservative principles, there will be differences in class, material condition and other inequalities. Equality will be of opportunity, not necessarily of result. The only uniformity will be before the law. Society will not be perfect. Consider the results of the rule of ideologues of the last century.
It is by DEMANDING equality of outcome that big government produces and enforces the 'loser' category.
