The Rise of Social Liberalism

After a Pew Research Center report earlier this month found that “the Christian share of the U.S. population is declining, while the number of U.S. adults who do not identify with any organized religion is growing,” this week Gallup released a report that found that “more Americans now rate themselves as socially liberal than at any point in Gallup’s 16-year trend, and for the first time, as many say they are liberal on social issues as say they are conservative.”

While religion is losing its positions, social liberalism is taking hold on American soil. I don't care about others' religious affiliations but I do care a lot about their political views. Social liberalism is destructive and dangerous, especially for nations brought up on free market, individualism and liberties. What is social liberalism? A form of circumcised communism. Suddenly you owe a lot to a bunch of people you don't even know. Their education, medical care, even illegal immigrants - you will have to pay for everything and everyone in this country. Of course, we will need a big government to control expenses and collect more taxes.
Do you really want to see the US a socialist state?
Nice rant in the OP, yet it's not supported by the link to the link you put up as support. In fact, even Cato cries BS.

Social Liberalism in the U.S. on the Rise Fiscal Conservatism Remains Strong Cato Liberty

On Social Ideology the Left Catches Up to the Right
 
Republicans always say they hate liberalism and then describe something strange and unrecognizable. But when you say "hate minorities, hate gays, fight against women's rights, keep people from health care and good wages and suddenly, everyone knows who you are talking about.
The healthcare is a failure because people CAN afford the insurance but they CAN'T afford the copay.

And women's rights. Women can do what they want just don't make other people pay for it.

Gays are not hated by all. Except Germaine Greer who is very mad at Elton John and his male partner for putting "mother" on their child's birth certificate.
 
Its the age old battle of the Haves and the Have Nots....Its and ebb & flow deal...After 7 years of Obama telling them that they are aggrieved, and mistreated...the Have Nots believe the pendulum is swinging their way.

Who would have thought that The Looniest of Loons--Pocahontas, would be a rising star, and so is a declared Socialist.

But, Bill's Clinton's wife cannot be elected president...there are still a majority of Americans who will not stand for it and will absolutely vote.

And then the Socialist Fad will fad for a while.
