I Agree With This In Principle

Maybe I am a conservative, because I agree with Burke. Actually, any smart liberal or conservative shoud agree with Burke on a great many things.

"Burke ever held, and held rightly that it can seldom be right … to sacrifice a present benefit for a doubtful advantage in the future ... It is not wise to look too far ahead; our powers of prediction are slight, our command over results infinitesimal."

I guess it's all the details, however.
