[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm fiscally conservative:  Stop spending money, stop asking for more than you have.  Stop being profligate with spending in a way that real people with real bank accounts cannot do.

What if I told my mortgage banker: "I can't pay, I need more money."

Stop being so insanely irresponsible with money.  That's what "Fiscal Conservative" means.

As for socially liberal, as long as it's not my husband or my daughter or my dog, you can f*ck whomever you want.  Not my business.  [/quote]

And if someone's going hungry or needs medical care but can't afford it?  If they are disabled or mentally ill or homeless or elderly?  Where does the "socially liberal" part come in?[/quote]

Charity and the already bloated welfare state.  Charity can expand.  Welfare state needn't.  There's no dignity in handouts.[/quote]

False.  Charity dolesn't expand and hasn't expanded.  Plus, charity picks and chooses which people they serve.  Many Christian charities for example will only help their own.[/quote]
