[steve dave]

Librarian.  Shhhhhhhhhh.

I'm sorry, you are what you are. I don't decide these things. It's a nature v. nurture thing really.

I hate to take away from the classification of everyone, but lots of people say they are "socially liberal" and "fiscally conservative" and I don't quite buy it.

Yeah, you want low taxes and don't hate gays, but how do you feel about people on welfare and social security reform and medicaid and affirmative action? It's really hard to be a serious fiscal conservative without taking conservative stances on those issues.

Social Security and medicare/medicaid are going to die one way or another. Kicking them down the road doesn't do anyone any good.

Thanks for posting something entirely unrelated to what I posted.

Oh, man. I just clicked on "Disaffecteds" to see what that even is.

 Disaffecteds

11% of the public
What They Believe

    Highly critical of both government and business
    Sympathetic to the poor and supportive of social welfare programs
    Concerned about immigration
    Majority believes the country can't solve many of its important problems
    Religious and socially conservative

Who They Are

    Most financially stressed of the groups: nearly half describe their household as "struggling"
    71% have experienced unemployment in their household in the past 12 months
    About two-thirds have only a high school education or less
    Compared with the national average of 33%, more are parents (44%)
    26% have a U.S. passport — well below the national average
    23% follow NASCAR racing

 

These must be the social conservative, fiscal liberal people from the south that steve dave told me about.

OK, I'm all good with welfare for people that are physically or mentally incapable of providing for themselves, I am for social security reform and purging fraud from medicare/medicaid, and indifferent regarding affirmative action.
