Hi :) Hmm, with a capital C that has a very negative connotation in the country i am in. It's the name of the political party that is currently in power seemingly purely to drive this country into the dirt. It's 2 years until we get to vote in the opposing party so that they can drive us down instead or we might keep the current lot in to see just how much more damage they can do. [shrugs] If we use "conservative" then it's bound to get capitalised at some point. So, i think i would prefer using "Corporate" or something else.
