Most people I know are 180 degrees the opposite.
Socially conservative, but have absolute excrement for brains when it comes to economic issues.
My attitude was that, for those so inclined, in the socially liberal (or Libertarian, if you’d prefer) fiscally/economically conservative it was fiscal and economic policy that should really matter. Which would bring those folks into political alignment (if not agreement) with social conservatives.
The truth is that the high emphasis on social issues was just bait for professionals to vote for elected officials that would f*ck them over in a heartbeat, once they had the power and opportunity.
I’m finding myself throwing out a lot of “I told you so’s” currently.
You really can’t be socially liberal without being fiscally liberal.
When “anything goes” socially, there will be consequences. Those consequences will have to be paid for.
And those who are likely to indulge in “anything goes” are those who are not responsible enough to have the resources to pay for the consequences of their behavior.
As an added twist, most [social] liberals have the mindset that if the person engaging in the behavior has to pay for the consequences of that behavior, then he was not really “free” to indulge in it in the first place.
People who claim to be "socially liberal and economically conservative" aren't going to stop being socially liberal, whether or not they actually get around to being economically conservative in a meaningful way.
