Just to be clear, I didn't post this article because I support Trump. However, I do support the political instincts of the people that his campaign attracts. This includes people who may not care about deregulation of the financial services sector but who want something done about immigration and social collapse.
Fiscal conservatives should focus primarily on cutting back on the welfare state, because so many of our cultural problems are at least indirectly a consequence of welfare. Without a bloated welfare state, we wouldn't be as attractive to Third World immigrants, and our inner cities would not be the world of squalor and violence that we see now. Fighting to save every special interest tax loophole (Nordquist dishonestly tries to portray elimination of loopholes as "tax hikes," which they are not, they just force certain classes of individuals to pay the same taxes as everybody else) won't accomplish any of these things.
Very interesting.
Are those instincts theological, or identitarian?
