The modern conservative movement, Republican Party in the United States is really just a Ponzi scheme on behalf of those who have already gotten theirs. The conservatives at the top like Trump and Sean Hannity etc. preach the message that if the government would just go away and leave us alone and levy no taxes at all we could all somehow get rich and have a wonderful ideal freedom-loving life. Of course the fact of the matter is that all the rich people benefit from that philosophy and everyone coming up new from the bottom are destroyed by that philosophy. Because the public Schools and Roads etcetera the infrastructure to develop a life or a new business will disappear under that philosophy. And Hannity and Trump and their ilk will just go off to their private islands and compounds with their windfall for not having to pay taxes on their hundreds of millions and billions. Then the whole system collapses for the rest of us, like all Ponzi schemes.
