Yeah, I have issues with the terms "conservative" and "liberal" and the way they are used. Not spending money we don't have, aiming for zero population growth, and farming organically and generally trying to do things in harmony with nature seem like conservative positions to me since they all involve being cautious and avoiding risks. None of those things seem to be generally characterized as conservative positions in U.S. politics, though.
