post 104 was about how social liberalism cannot lead to economic conservatism in America

This is bass ackwards. How do you propose to pay for all the police you need to enforce your live-like-me-or-else laws?

1. Print Money,
2. Raise Taxes, or
3. Borrow From China?

Note that the police requirement for your kind of laws is far higher than the requirement for legitimate laws (laws against actual crimes with actual victims) -- people spontaneously obstruct enforcement of the former while spontaneously assisting enforcement of the latter.

Social liberalism/libertarian social positions only leads to more government and more voters voting for personal gain, the last 50 years of social destruction and libertarian social gains has proven that.

Looking at the voting data today we see social liberals overwhelmingly voting liberal, and social conservatives overwhelmingly voting conservative.

You really don’t know the difference in the voting patterns of atheists/non religious, versus religious/Evangelicals?

If the libertarian party is successful in it’s social agenda, then conservatism and America is doomed.

That’s a two part savings deal there.

Having laws that actually punish real crimes (ie; crimes where there is a real Perp, a real Victim, and actual damage done) and a populace fully armed and able to defend itself means that law enforcement deals mostly with cleaning up the bodies of dead perps. Making sure the right body got ventilated would be the hardest part of their day.

No more worries over primary seatbelt laws, sobriety checkpoints, and no-knock raids at wrong addresses.
