A Place for Conservatives

There is no right answer to this question. There is no magic "size" of government. Government needs to establish a means of Justice based on rule of law, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the generally welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty for the people. What those terms mean is where the debates ensues.

Imo government needs to make people's lives easier and more secure, while having the most minimal impact in how they choose to live their lives that is possible. I think certain things should be viewed as rights, such as availability of affordable housing, electricity, clean water, waste disposal, and medical care. These should be viewed as basic "utilities" and should be provided or subsidized in one form or another through the government, or in other words, by each of us for each of our benefit. Then the government should just stay out of people's business. They have no right to be in people's bedrooms, deciding who can marry, or meddling in any other personal liberties.

Obviously this is very broad, but imo this is the amount the government should be involved in providing for the citizenry, and it needs to be big enough to do this effectively and efficiently and no bigger. So how big is that? Big enough, I guess.

Now that most major problems have been ironed out, slavery, womens rights and what have you
LMAO

The lasting effects of those issues are still being felt in magnitudes today. Those problems wouldn’t have affected you back then, and they sure as hell don’t affect you now. Not surprising you don’t have an ounce of empathy to go around. Or that some white dude in Utah considers everything to be great because we aren’t enslaving other humans. And women can now vote, radical.


Yeesh, what an awful post.

Well, they've been resolved as far as that privileged white male suburbanite is concerned! He knows what's up. And if you dare disagree, then you're an idiot liberal child who's not even worth talking to. :cool:

I forgot to include that these young liberal have a tendency to be inferring dip ****.
 
Mainstream conservatives would have done well to stick with their small government dogma on the marriage issue by pushing government out of the marriage equation altogether. Coval unions for all, a legal contract between consenting adults. Instead they exposed their moral superiority complex.

I’m in complete agreement.
 
They say misery loves company so I guess that explains why young liberals have contempt for anyone who doesn't wear a victim complex on their sleeve.

I prefer strong willed women like this:

 
Aw yes, the exiled princess of Westeros who cannot be harmed by fire, and hatches dragon eggs through divine intervention. Has used her power and influence to kill hundreds and will lead an army to gain access to the Iron Throne.

The example all modern woman should follow.
 
I’m in complete agreement.
It's almost as though mainstream Republican's stated desire for a small government is really only something they believe in under the right circumstances, and not really a guiding principle at all.
