Higher is more conservative.
This country is more and more socialist every year, the government is in the process of stealing or destroying 1/6th of the economy with ACA/single payer. Not even taking all the other stuff into account.
The idea that this country can be called “conservative” is ridiculous.
Notice how whenever the Conservatism gets lower, the economic prosperity does as well.
Hard to believe that the conservative percentage went down that much during the Reagan years.
