I know perfectly well what it is. It's a lib who wants to raise taxes and likes to call that "fiscally conservative." There is no liberal on the face of this earth who doesn't want to raise taxes.
Apparently you don't know what fiscal conservatism is. Because your description is a polar opposite.
Fiscal conservatism is a
political and
economic philosophy regarding
fiscal policy and
fiscal responsibility with an ideological basis in
capitalism,
individualism,
limited government, and
laissez-faire economics. Fiscal conservatives advocate
tax cuts, reduced
government spending,
free markets,
deregulation,
privatization,
free trade, and minimal
government debt. Fiscal conservatism follows the same philosophical outlook of
classical liberalism. This concept is derived from economic liberalism and can also be referred to as
fiscal liberalism outside the United States.
The term has its origins in the era of the American
New Deal during the 1930s as a result of the policies initiated by
modern liberals, when many classical liberals started calling themselves
conservatives as they did not wish to be identified with what was passing for
liberalism in the United States. In the United States, the term
liberalism has become associated with the
welfare state and expanded
regulatory policies created as a result of the New Deal and its offshoots from the 1930s onwards.
Fiscal conservatives form one of the three legs of the traditional American
conservative movement that emerged during the 1950s together with
social conservatism and
national defense conservatism. Many Americans who are classical liberals also tend to identify as
libertarian, holding more
cultural liberal views and advocating a
non-interventionist foreign policy while supporting lower taxes and less
government spending. As of 2020, 39% of Americans polled considered themselves "economically conservative".
Because of its close proximity to the United States, the term has entered the lexicon in Canada.
[10] In many other countries, economic liberalism or simply
liberalism is used to describe what Americans call fiscal conservatism.
No you don't. I've certainly never seen any evidence of that.
The evidence you've seen from me and what I support is not even close to what liberals and progressives support. You just want to call it a lie. Why? I don't have a clue. Because if I supported anything the liberals and progressives supported, I wouldn't constantly oppose their ways.
You're looking for any out, but can't find one. So you claim my support is a lie. Pretty pathetic, bro.
Sure you do, and when does that ever happen?
It doesn't happen because we have only a hand full of fiscal conservative in DC. The rest are just CINO's. (Conservative in name only).
Yet, your first instinct is to raise taxes rather than cut spending
Wrong again. Tax cuts without spending cuts is retarded.
So where did you ever demonstrate this attitude?
I don't understand your question. I'm demonstrating it now. With you. In this and many other posts in this forum. And during the 2008 and 2012 GOP primaries, when moronic republicans were trying to get people like Romney elected as POTUS.
Yall were stupid then. And you're still stupid for supporting Trump. Who's also a CINO. (Per his record)
If you are against borrowing then you should oppose all attempts to increase spending, and you never do.
That's all I ever do.
You see, now you're just making up stuff about me.
If you have to lie to make a point, then you really don't have one. Do you?
Blaming that all on Trump only shows how dishonest you are. The Dims demanded the spending and they all voted for it.
Did they "demand" Trump to sign appropriations bills? Did they hold a gun to his head and force him to fund gender studies, Planned Parenthood and all the other unconstitutional crap the passed in the House and Senate.
Did Pelosi have Trumps balls in a mason jar?
Why don't you so-called "fiscal conservatives" ever attack Democrats? That's the key evidence that you aren't conservative. Democrats are responsible for 95% of all the spending our government engages in.
We do. You Trump supporters just don't pay attention to it. But you sure get triggered and over dramatic when we call out Trump's flaws.
