I must not understand the meaning of "conservative" or something...

I have not met Paris Hilton, and have no idea what her political views are if she has any. She is very far from being the typical trustfunder. Enjoy a few summers in the Hamptons and you'll get a much better view of trustfunders and their world view. People who never worked a day in their life, want very much to avoid any spotlight whatsoever and talk constantly about needing to 'pull at least a D' at Columbia next semester so they can graduate and cash in on the next lump sum of the money coming to them. People from families that have not held a job in two or three generations. Great grandsons and granddaughters of bankers, railroad tycoons and 'captains of industry' who died more than 100 years ago.... They are born knowing they have 10, 25, 50 or 100 million 'coming to them' and all they have to do is meet the terms of the will by staying out of jail or graduating from a school they automatically get into or some other speed bump on a very flat road through life.
You'd be surprised how many there are... And almost without exception, from a political point of view they are as conservative as you can get. Why wouldn't they be? Their only personal interest is in maintaining the status quo at all costs....
