Maybe you are correct? Tough to measure. In my experience, conservatives are happy to help people who genuinely need help. What we are opposed to (as I bet you are also opposed to) is giving welfare to people who could easiy be working, and I am opposed to (as I bet you are) welfare programs that cripple recipients my making them addicted to welfare.

Lots of conservatives are Christians, and Christians put a very, very high emphasis on charity. Not all of us are good Christians, of course, but you get my meaning.
