Conservatives believe free markets and individual achievement are the primary factors behind economic prosperity. They advocate the reduction of state-run welfare programs in favor of private sector nonprofits and encouraging personal responsibility. The AUfC advocates the theory of supply side economics, which holds that lower tax rates increase economic growth. Most oppose higher tax rates for higher earners, which they believe are unfairly targeted at those who create jobs and wealth. They believe private spending is more efficient than government spending. They also believe the private sector is more effective in helping the poor through charity than government is through welfare programs, and that social assistance programs often cause government dependency. Most agree there should be some "safety net" to assist the less fortunate, but significantly limiting it as to encourage employment and reduce abuse. They have generally been opposed by labor union organizations and members. Each Pharexian ward has devolved "right-to-work" laws that have been used by some to weaken unions. The party opposes increasing in the minimum wage, and supports allowing each ward to decide. |

Conservatives believe free markets and individual achievement are the primary factors behind economic prosperity. They advocate the reduction of state-run welfare programs in favor of private sector nonprofits and encouraging personal responsibility. The AUfC advocates the theory of supply side economics, which holds that lower tax rates increase economic growth. Most oppose higher tax rates for higher earners, which they believe are unfairly targeted at those who create jobs and wealth. They believe private spending is more efficient than government spending. They also believe the private sector is more effective in helping the poor through charity than government is through welfare programs, and that social assistance programs often cause government dependency. Most agree there should be some "safety net" to assist the less fortunate, but significantly limiting it as to encourage employment and reduce abuse. They have generally been opposed by labor union organizations and members. Each Pharexian ward has devolved "right-to-work" laws that have been used by some to weaken unions. The party opposes increasing in the minimum wage, and supports allowing each ward to decide.
