I believe a core tactic of a conservative government is to lower the revenue base of the government so less services are effective and efficient. This leads to the ability to privatize those services. Remember conservatives fundamentally lack policies that would benefit the majority of the countries they lead, they are grifters. Instead of fixing problems or raising revenue through taxing the rich (their friends and donors) they cut services to fund tax cuts. When that becomes too unpopular they focus on deregulation until they can again cut services and lower taxes on the rich again.
Please, help educate everyone on the actions of this conservative government and the last - whatever - three decades of conservative government. They hurt people so they can give more money to the rich, don't ever vote a centralist or right wing party ever again. Only political parties that work for workers, that's who deserve your vote and support.
Bismark turned private health insurance of the unions into a service by the state to weaken the unions, as well as introducted retirement pensions.
It's funny that the unions and regular citizens keep that power in the hand of the state instead of organizing it themselves, independend of whatever party is in power.
Another strong, but much less talked about reason for this is Bismarcks conflict with the pope. B did not want to leave the power (control through help, spiritually and materially) to the church.
