Either way I think we are just buying time and treading water. Governments rarely shrink, they usually just fail.
I thought you were talking on the Gov't level. On the personal level it would be very hard for me to know if you are a fiscal conservative. We'd also have to agree on what that means on the micro level.

Firearms and Immigration are social issues. Though, I'd be interested to hear your take on being conservative on guns and immigration.
