Entry: Three Strategies for the Right Link: http://www.takimag.com/blogs/article/three_strategies_for_the_right#23383 Post contents: Generally, I support the join the Democrats option...truth be told, the Democrat base is not as socially liberal as the party hacks and leadership lead us to believe. Democrats can't win elections with just Blacks, unmarried women with children, gay men, and government workers union members. And they know it. We've got a better chance there to make "moderate" improvements like WEBB... The real problem with real "paleo-conservatism" is this idiotic dedication to free market fundamentalism...the idiocy of the “supply side” economics--or as it’s more accurately known, the right wing “free lunch” theory that you can increase economic growth with tax cuts alone. This idiocy begat Reagan/Bush budget deficits, the S&L;bailouts, the internet and the real estate bubbles..all proof that by cutting taxes and “deregulation” always lead to booms and busts, with the FED bailing out the whole mess by increasing the money supply, and selling out pieces of the US economic sovereignty to Arab Shieks and Chinese communist commissars. Folks like me don't want a command and control economy, but realize that "laissez faire" <snicker> is not the answer, the mixed economy of state capitalism is. Sent at: 2008 09 07
