I await the day a “true conservative” actually proposes the taxes necessary to provide all the services the American people demand, without deficit.

And I actually believe that would be a conservative position to take. To force the American people as a whole to wake up to their unreasonable demands.

No, Mariner, that's tax-and-spend socialism. You'd better give your position some thought and do some soul-searching.

If you do, you will realize that conservatism is mainly about limited government, not giving everyone what they want.

The thankless heroes are those who fight against the tide of big government. We should be supporting them.

If enough people want something, they will put the politicians in office who will give it to them.

The only question is how to pay for it.

Another thing: It’s irresponsible and anti-conservative to give the people everything they want...and borrow the money to do so.

That is absolutely NOT conservative.
