For those curious about the Russian in that poster, the blue book in the boy's left hand is titled "Lenin Stalin", matching the two heads in bronze bas-relief in the background. The text at the bottom of the poster translates to "The young build/form Communism! Forward, for new success in work and studies."
The problem with that statement is that it leaves out the other half of the definition of Conservatism. Conservatism does tend to somewhat restrict personal freedoms, mostly because of the influence of religion in today's conservatism. But, that definition leaves out the fact that Conservatism also increases economic liberty, when compared with liberalism! Libertarianism allows the maximum amount of both personal and economic liberty! That's why the more libertarianism we can get into the Republican Party the better off we will be.

I agree with Old Greybeard in that there needs to be more Libertarianism in the Republican Party.
