Conservatives are all about what benefits them and them only. If it also benefits people they don't like, then it's not good enough. If it comes at the cost of others, even better, but it's all about privilege. They don't have fixed ideological positions like 'free market over regulation, always and everywhere'. If the free market gives them what they want, they favour it. If the free market decides in a way that doesn't benefit them, they're against it. If regulation gives them what they want, regulation is good. If regulation works against them, regulation is bad.
That's literally all there is to it.
