Fiscal conservatism when a majority of the country doesn't want to touch entitlements is a dead topic.
In any case, growth for the sake of growth without any thought to creating a strong, enduring society is worse than worthless. We are creating a smaller, weaker, and more divided society of depressed loners too fat to do military service.
sure, but SOMEHOW the gop got most of the south and a lot of other areas for decades while railing against the entitlements. which seemed to keep them within reason. when you stop tho? who knows what the result will be.
im curious to see if overly focusing on social issues will stop the purple creep in the south and win back territory in the rust belt. or if it will fail and in 10 years we'll be back to hearing about how bad welfare is.
