There are, broadly, three kinds of conservatives and they differ from their
liberal counterpoints in the following ways.

1. Economic conservatives tend to promote the general welfare through the
economy; economic liberals tend to provide for the general welfare through
the government.

2. Social conservatives tend to hold that morality is absolute (i.e., God
given/inspired); social liberals tend to assert that morality is
situational. A sub-set of this is the ends/means test: The end justifies the
means vs. The means condems the end.

3. Sociological conservatives tend to promote equal opportunity;
sociological liberals tend to promote equal outcomes.

There are other, less pressing, differences but almost all agree on the
above. As any non-impaired person can see, liberals are basically evil.
