    Republicans support … low economic support

    Except for when it comes to GOP public office holders and corporations. In both those cases Republicans support high economic support.

      Low economic support means lower taxes and minimal social programs, along with minimal subsidies and regulations on business.

        Except Republicans fucking love subsidies if it’s for their donors.

        Corn? Oil? Fracking? Tanks for police? Make it rain!

        The poors? Fuck them, let their kids starve. Ohh, and let’s take away their ability to prevent or terminate pregnancies too, so more kids can starve.

          If there’s money to be had, sure, they want a piece. Conservatives would rather a lower tax and no subsidies and let the free market shake things out. They align with Libertarians on economic policy. Minimal taxes and maximum free market with no purse for social programs or subsidies.

            Only if you buy their dating profile pic. What they do in reality is the opposite. Red states take a LOT more subsidies than blue.

              Again, it’s not that they won’t accept them. Conservatives prefer limiting government in free enterprise. There would be no money for subsidies if the taxes were as low as they’d like them to be. There would also be no money for social services like welfare, SNAP, Medicaid, Medicare, emergency housing, etc.

                  That’s the high social legislation I was referring to. That’s where they differ from Liberals and Libertarians alike. Conservatives support restrictive legislation on social liberties. Christian Nationalism is a great example.
