Conservative
な adjective
Who are all like "I want to preserve and protect what I have, get out of my business, government!"? Conservative people, of course.
The reading doesn't match up for this word's 守. The reading is しゅ, but you can remember that because the conservatives want to protect and preserve their hoes (ほ) and their chutes (しゅ) from the government. For some reason those get taxed a lot.
