Who said anything about an attempt to impose? What I’m saying is that conservatism flows from the social.

The Libertarian argument has always been, as you note, that fiscal policy should drive social change. But the kind of change many Libertarians support does not mesh with socially conservative principles.

As such, “do it my way and your way will come later” doesn’t appeal. Social conservatism first. Everything else flows from it.

Cool. One of the big problems in our society is the persistent underclass. You have women having kids out of wedlock. Their sons engage in crime, because being perceived as tough and having cash gets them laid.

My solution, as detailed in my prior post, is to remove the government-funded financial underpinnings that enable the life style.

What is your plan?
