Like, um, welfare.A real conservative party would want to reduce government programs that did not produce the results they promised.
Sure. And many other programs, too. Hell, it's been proven time and time again that a UBI is superior to welfare in almost every way. What other viable solutions are there to the problems that welfare tries to solve? What has worked elsewhere? Why? Is it replicable? Etc... My hope is that a truly conservative platform would look at the core problem they were trying to solve (rather than just lump a bunch of different problems under the one solution titled "welfare") and then use evidence-based analysis to determine the most effective plan to solve the problem.
