Conservatism And Extreme Inequality
One reason I find the Romney-Ryan proposals for the economy somewhat alarming is that, in an era of hyper-social-inequality, they will almost certainly increase it still further. The Republicans are radical Randians in that sense, not Tories, as I have tried to argue. When you see an unexpected and sharply upward trend in inequality and want to accelerate it some more, you have ceased to be a conservative.
