I shall make some particular statements after all.

I don't think the conservative-liberal divide will ever go away. Quite simply put, the current liberal will be the conservative of the future as more liberal ideas are pushed. The cycle of liberal and conservative is much the same as that of the economy - up and down, but on the whole up.

Liberal individuals are constantly pushing for greater liberalisation (though in America that is mostly social liberalism as economic liberalism is a Republican thing), while conservatives essentially say, "whoa whoa whoa not so fast, you'll get us all killed", and of course, they have a point, societies need time to adjust to change, both socially and technologically.

But anyway, what is on the left and on the right will change over time. While the conservative of the past might advocate for slavery, the conservative of the present is not too different from a liberal 150 years ago, maybe even 50 years ago in many regards.

Fundamentally, there will always be a left and right wing, a left-wing dominated utopia is most certainly not on the way.
