You can be a good conservative without being a Christian.

You might note this NPR article, Christians are about equally split
between liberal and conservative.

Why we can't have good things?

We can have good things! Most do.

What good things are you missing? This is a serious question.

If you're not lazy or a dimwit, it's not all that difficult to
have a home, plenty of food, a car or three, 3 TVs, cable, computer,
internet, air conditioning, washer dryer, bicycles, boats, clothes,
shoes, hand tools, fishing poles, cupboard full of dishes, VCRs, hobby
materials, electronic test equipment, electricity, stove,
storage shed/work shop, furniture, freezer, money for gas, wifi radio,
communication receiver, fax machine, cordless phone, health insurance,
HSA SEP, riding mower, push mower, electric gokart, portable radio,
books, binoculars, sewing machines, storage cabinets, table saw, jig
saw, band saw, greenhouse, irrigation system, water pump, water/sewer,
living close to local consumer services.


Please add to the list and tell me what good things are you missing.

The phrase typically does not refer to those sorts of things.

You have to remember, the conservative's idea of "good things" are all
things that money can buy, and especially when the money comes from
political action groups.
