This article will no doubt generate some disagreements, simply because people don’t share all the same exact values. In short, I do not share a belief in a god of any sort. Thus, I’ll refrain from discussing that religion-related hot button issues here, namely abortion and gay rights.
That said, I believe there are some areas conservatives can agree on, among them smaller government, lower taxes, and more personal freedoms. I’ll cover the last item tomorrow when I discuss freedom of religion and speech. However, I will note that this is one area where the status quo is on very shaky grounds.
Moving on to small government, this is an area that is very much intertwined with the following concepts of lower taxes and personal freedoms. Yet, it is possible to discuss the size of government as its own concept.
