How does Burke's philosophy compare to current conservatism

He'd be a paleocon today.

He was a weird mixture of liberal and conservative principles, although his lasting influence on conservatism was more significant.

For example, he believed democracy *could* work, but warned it might lead to the persecution of unpopular minorities, along with making the population feel entitled and easily roused to anger.

I wouldn't call him libertarian except maybe in the classical liberal sense. He was a form believer in the wisdom of tradition as accumulated lessons, and cherished religion as a provider of social stability. He opposed state price fixing and minimum wages, though.
