I think the culture is more important than the economy....and conservative boomers let the counter cultural left take over education and the culture...we talk about gay marriage but where were outraged conservative boomers when no-fault divorce became the law in state after state..they did not understand that polititcal victories are hollow when you are losing the culture...so even during the Reagan administration conservatives were losing where it counted most - in the culture! And conservative Boomers did nothing about that except whine a lot....we didn’t need the Moral Majority we needed more Breitbarts....this nation has crumbling families and communites our social infrastructure is being demolished so a flat tax is not going ot matter when the people are passed the point of no return...
I have to say I couldn’t agree more, Publius. I personally believe we need to return to God. Nothing else will be solved without that. Because all of those other issues: politics, economics, education, etc. all have to do with a frame of mind. When the heart is corrupt, the mind will be too.
