at else do you call someone who is happy to have people die so that they can make a few quid?

I think it's niave to think that is the rational.

It's more likely that they believe that Labour is unfit to manage the economy (which may result in lower spending in the future) and that out of the alternative options the Torys are the next best option.

Monetary issues have never been the reason that I vote, even before becoming particularly politically active. The economy is a fucking sham and for the purposes of these types of discussions exists only as a rhetorical device.

Osborne has been successful as Chancellor only insofar as he has been able to create an illusion of economic competence.

That being said, I still don't really understand what the average non-one-percenter sees in the conservative party.
