7 Things People Who Say They’re ‘Fiscally Conservative But Socially Liberal’ Don’t Understand

Aw shoot. I disagree with a lot of that article. Nothing against you at all though!

The title is straight out straw man. And on his first point, I recall two big recessions and two really big recoveries. The recoveries did more to reduce poverty than safety nets or tax policy ever did. The recessions surely did more damage than a unadjusted minimum wage! Unless he defines poor as depending on assistance, but to exclude the underemployed distorts the economic concept of poverty.

Valid on education and infrastructure. Except fiscal conservatism hardly excludes maintenance. Deficit city/state budgets do that.

Why (edit) she thinks a guy like me would be ok with domestic or work abuse is either terribly misinformed or just buying into common insults. How does fiscal conservative make me ok with racist policing? Question for the author, not you.

Is deregulation a policy Gov Jerry Brown has been pushing? Methinks the opposite and you can’t get more fiscal conservative/socially liberal than that guy. In fact just apply the article to him. How does it fit? The writer just hung some valid points about poverty etc on the wrong hook.
