Does society need conservatives to prevent liberals from creating social change too quickly?

Would too much social change enacted too quickly have a detrimental effect on society? Do conservatives inhibit that process, allowing more time for adjustment, and, in effect, make social changes more sustainable as they do inevitably come?Does society need conservatives to prevent liberals from creating social change too quickly?
More or less, yes.





Extreme conservatives are only about ideology and don't care about unintended consequences. The answer to every problem (crime, education, poverty, public safety, pollution, corruption,, etc.) is smaller government and tax cuts. The government belongs in the bedroom but not the board room. Unfairness and injustice no matter how pervasive are just tough breaks for some people and not anything for the government to deal with.





Extreme liberals on the other hand can't even comprehend unintended consequences. Someone is unhappy? Address their complaint with law. That new law makes some else unhappy pass more law (this is the whack-a-mole approach to government). Government does not belong in the bedroom, but should be running the board room. People can not be left to think and do for themselves, and people have no right to resources.





But the liberals make us aware of injustice, unfairness, waste, sustainability issues, and have the laudable goals of addressing people's problems. The conservatives temper this resolve to do good by providing 'adult supervision'. In the end, liberals win the day, but only because the conservatives stop them from doing it all at once.Does society need conservatives to prevent liberals from creating social change too quickly?
Social change shall always be slow, whether it is hindered by Conservatives, or the terms just need to be hammered out by the Democratic Congress.





Only in a fascist state would changes come quickly, as just the leader or leaders need to ratify the new policies.
As difficult as it is for me to admit, I do think society needs conservatives for balance. I think you make a good point.
We need conservatives for history.





When we look back at today, we will see them as the barrier to equal rights.





We'll be like ';What was up their ****?'; And be embarrassed that we had conservatives in our bloodline.





Oh the shame.
YES YOU NEED US,IF NOT NOBODY WOULD HAVE ANY MONEY,INCLUDING THE CHINESE
Society needs conservatives to prevent liberals from doing too many idiotic things too quickly and plunging us into Stalinism.
Conservatives and liberals don't really exist for real anymore... Actually we should all know that a society can be both right and left at the same time, but we keep ourself divided on ideological path in order to reach the same goal... Actually our society needs to emerged from its latency to become mroe resilient to external changes, and those right and left ideas are getting outdated and are based on shear illusions, that peoples still takes for real.


Its getting time for a kind of social awakening, were all religions will be teach, and where all individuals could choose their beliefs, where all societies could have a choice, and where all humanity will speak in one voice! In those conditions and prioritizations only, we would reach the equilibrium needed for our perinity! As for changes, all changes are part of nature, so what you are asking is like saying can we slowdown life? Not sure that it is relevant!
interesting question, not that it would ever happen, knowing change is needed and trying make a change is usually about twenty or more years apart.


RLP..Rarely Lucid Person is still ranting about those who don't have a job...although she by her own admission has never had one....I'm amazed at the Hypocrisy. But I guess I shouldn't be.
FDR's policies were ';far-left'; for its time, but we all know how the New Deal turned out.





Look, there is a need for balance in Washington, but our system is made so that there are a series of checks and balances that prevents too much radicalism. Conservatives have legitimate roles to play in government, just as liberals do; however, keep in mind that what we consider ';liberal'; would be considered very ';conservative'; in France.





Ultimately, we simply need reasonable people making reasonable policies. Thinking of politics purely in terms of ideology can be rather dangerous.
What you say may be true, but certain changes need to come quickly or this country will simply not be able to survive as a free society. Things like getting out of Iraq, and shutting down the Federal Reserve, abolishing the Patriot Act, and the Real ID Act, and getting rid of the income tax, and getting back to the constitution as it was meant to be, before Bushco made such a shambles of it, and other things such as these. ';We the people'; must pull the rug out from under this evil New World Order agenda! *sm*
hmmmm...





Good question actually. Bravo.


Quick change in any direction can be too dangerous for society.





Just like a diver going to fast up to the surface. He destroys himself from the inside out.
i think a balance is always preferable to a singular mindset. if my read on political history is correct...both the major party's once had a blend of perspectives. and policy questions were discussed and resolved on their merits, not some game of we win you lose. i'm not sure of the start date; but, that mix has dissolved into the current mandatory partisan fidelity.
Social change enacted too quickly would likely have a detrimental effect on conservatives. Liberals/Progressives I believe would embrace it. However since conservatives makeup roughly half of the voting population of the U.S. it is certainly wrong to ignore their needs. Historically in our country, whenever a large group feels threatened or ignored, that group revolts, sometimes to the point of taking up arms. Since we espouse democracy, we have to be the best examples of it. This means trying to find a halfway point that most of us can at least live with. If that is considered to be slowing things down, then it is a necessity to maintaining balance, law, order, and the moral authority required to promote democracy throughout the world.
Liberals are idealists whose ideas are often ahead of their time. Conservatives are pragmatists whose ideas are often narrow and short-sighted. Liberals are good at seeing the big picture and conservatives are good at details and implementation. We need both types working together to make effective social progress. Without this type of balance we will either receive ineffective social programs from the liberals or short term fixes for long term problems from conservatives.
Social change is inevitable. The founders instituted a form of government that would allow such change to take place DUE TO the absence of government impediments.





Conservatives are necessary to protect the American way of life as the founders intended. Social changes that take place WITHIN the framework of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights assures that those social changes don't destroy the fabric of the country that made us the greatest nation in Earth's history.





Unfortunately, the more the Constitution and Bill of Rights is shredded, the more liberals want to trample on it in the name of change. That SHOULD indicate that the desired changes are being undertaken incorrectly or that they are dangerous to the American way of life.





Neo-conservatism of late, has also managed to trample the Constitution AND our Bill of Rights, but could not have done so without first removing the safegards that were once in place.





America's move toward socialism started with FDR and creeping incrementalism has furthered the socialist agenda ever since in the form of liberalism.





You can eat an elephant, one bite at a time. Every bite out America has been predicated on earlier bites.





TRUE conservatives would restore the Constitution and our Bill of Rights and force social change to be undertaken ';by the people'; or at the state level as intended. Socialism can't take hold that way, so ';changes'; must be THRUST upon the people through an ever growing and ever more intrusive federal bureaucracy. Which, by definition, damages the Constitution!
Yes because if ';liberals'; solve problems too quickly, problems will be solved quickly!!
Seriously, society needs Conservatives to keep liberals from destroying this country by creating too many social welfare programs and taking away people's ambitions and desire to WORK to get ahead.


Liberals want to give away the store to buy votes to keep themselves in power. That's all they are about.


Conservatives believe in personal responsibility and hard work.

WhStudying to become a teacher - Need help with creating an assessment?at would you like to ask?

I have to come up with a 12 lesson program for Year 8 Science. I'm doing my program on classification of living things, and then leading into cells and cell structure. Can anyone give me some ideas for an assessment item for either of these two topics? My brain is fried and it's due tomorrow.WhStudying to become a teacher - Need help with creating an assessment?at would you like to ask?
For a good assessment of classification, you could bring in a bunch of models of different species and ask them to put them into the proper groups or some thing similar to that, that is an easy way and its fun too! Perhaps for the assessment of the cell structure, find the cross section of a cell on the internet and make copies for the students to label the parts.

How can I increase my speed by creating a registry entry?

About a year ago when I got my broadband internet, I was able to download at a speed of 500KBPS. Now it only goes 45KBPS. I bought a new computer, contacted the ISP about it, and they say it shouldn't be like that. I did everything there is to think of. Cost me lots. Then I heard that you can create registry entries to increase the speed using Notepad. How can I do this for free? And is it free? I spent enough already.How can I increase my speed by creating a registry entry?

Creating An Access Database from an Excel Spreadsheet?

Is it best to import the data from the spreadsheet or to link it? Looking at the spreadsheet I think the data needs to be divided into different tables. Is it possible to create different tables from the new table that will be created in Access?Creating An Access Database from an Excel Spreadsheet?
Most worksheets are usually storing things like people's Names, Addresses, Phone Numbers, etc...





Such information is better stored in an MS-Access database. You would create a Primary Table that held all of the information that defines the people (name, birthdate, gender, race, etc...). Another Table would hold the physical Addresses, and yet another table for the Phone Numbers. These additional tables are secondary to the initial table, and are joined by a One-To-Many relationship (allowing any one person to have multiple entries in the other tables).





And it is best to save the MS-Excel Worksheet as a .CVS file before importing that into MS-Access. This is because Microsoft tries to do things with the data, thinking it knows what is best for you. By using a .CVS file as an in-between step, you can better control the importing of the data.Creating An Access Database from an Excel Spreadsheet?
If you link it only, then you can continue to update the information in Excel yet use Access for printing off your queries and reports etc. It depends on how well you and other users know Access as to whether you import the spreadsheet. However, once you import you can easily then split the tables though if you split the info in Excel into different sheets to start with and import or link each sheet separately aht would work though I should imagine you will still have a bit of design work to do with creating primary fields and linking the tables properly.
It depends whether you will continue to update the data, either way my preference would be to import the data and control it all from access. If updates are required this can be done from a form. To divide the data into more than one table you can simply query the data (make table query) based on the criteria you wish to divide upon.
