Can a person say they are fiscally conservative and socially liberal without getting hated on in this new ultra-divisive political landscape?
[Asking for a friend]
This always confused me. How would social programs be funded?
@LnzyHou @EdgeOErin I think typically this type of person thinks that laws should support diversity (for instance, would be for legalizing gay marriage) but that government programs should not fund social concerns (for instance, would be against programs to eradicate homelessness).
@CarmenSlamdiego @LnzyHou I am definitely not against programs that would help the homeless. I'm fine with gay marriage, live and let live. But I also think money can be sensibly allocated and things made more efficient.
@aasteppin @EdgeOErin @CarmenSlamdiego
That vagary stopped me from commenting. It’s all subjective. And part of good business practices. Not conservatism. IMO
@LnzyHou @EdgeOErin @CarmenSlamdiego thats the word I was looking for... subjective
@EdgeOErin @CarmenSlamdiego @LnzyHou sensibly is defined by whomever is writing the checks.....efficiency is also the same...
