Far right economics.
Social issues are a bit more blurred, because my personal views are strongly conservative, but I don't consider it right to impose them on anyone else through the political process even though I believe them to be right. Even if I were of a mind to participate in the political process, regarding social issues, my conscience would condemn me for voting against my beliefs, and it would condemn me for imposing them on others by my vote.

People stand by conservative values because they feel like they work, if perhaps imperfectly. Changing society isn't always progress, it can just as easily be detriment. Conservatives see what people stand to lose by change, progressives see what they stand to gain.
