The conservatives' platform is entirely logical:

  1. Removing education, opportunities, and social safety nets keeps people ignorant, poor, and vulnerable.

  2. Without government willing to help, people in need are forced to turn to the church.

  3. Religion breeds more conservatives.

(Forced-birth polices not only take step #3 literally, but also enhance step #1 by burdening young people with kids they aren't ready for.)
