You can not base everything on 1 single solution. You need a mix of concepts to have a working society that benefits all. A little bit of socialism, a little bit of conservatism and a whole lot of the middle. Too much of either end causes problems.

The problem we have in America today is the right wing has become a extremist movement which is unwilling to compromise and they want to oppress everything they don't like. They have decided to turn their backs on the founding principles of this country. They are in short turn coats. They are traitors to our Constitution, our laws our country, the very values of this country.

They are just like the Taliban, you give them a inch and they push for more.. Today it's the Black, Hispanics, Gays & the Muslims. Tomorrow it's Anyone not white enough and not Christian. Then it's you aren't Christian enough or you are the wrong branch of Christians not white enough.. ect..ect.. It never ends with these types of people because they have an absolute need to be offended by other's action and there fore grant themselves reason to oppress someone. The right wing is authoritarian by it's basic principle, they are the direct opposite of supporting personal freedom.

au·thor·i·tar·i·an
/əˌTHôrəˈterēən/
adjective
1.
favoring or enforcing strict obedience to authority, especially that of the government, at the expense of personal freedom.

Radicals always become more radicalized as new wannabe leaders try to out due the current ones. Those then still in power inch their selves further to the extreme so they can fit in and the cultist follow suite.
