    Everyone living depends on huge networks of interdependent actors for basic survival. Never mind quality of life. The political reality of the individual is that they are the smallest and weakest political unit; least equipped to petition for change.

    Conservatism may have individualism all over the label, but conformity is what’s inside the box.
