Look, I'm all for fiscal conservatism, but that doesn't trump my social liberalism.
I'm much more willing to entertain a debate concerning policy than the kind of garbage UB throws out there, like Obama is a black panther muslim rag head.

You can't have society, let alone solve social issues, with an unfree system of exchange, so yes I would put that as priority number one by a wide margin. Things are quite swell right now, because freedom does not always mean conveniece, ease, and shortsightedly artificially inflated values, it means an accurate representation. Not to mention the claims of "recession", by people who don't know that the word has an actual definition, our economy grew last quarter, albeit at a slower than normal rate.
Ideas like "windfall profit" taxes for 10% profit margins (lower than mcdonalds) shows such a complete lack of understanding of or regard for fundamental economic liberty and are symbolic of either unthinkable stupidity or downright malice that trump just about any other concern.
