> That's the link I intended ("top posts from the past month"). If you were not so blinded with bias, you would recognize that your link proves my point and illustrates that you are "only interested in attempting to misrepresent the facts to fit [your] world view."

The fact you intentionally linked to the wrong link proves your intention to misrepresent the facts.

I mean you can claim otherwise and shove it all on me I guess?

That is really where you went with this as far as I can tell.

> Thank you for partially agreeing, but you are illustrating your ignorance and seem "only interested in attempting to misrepresent the facts to fit [your] world view." Specifically, you are ignorant to the fact that libertarian monetary policies are not interchangeable or equivalent to conservative monetary policies. Just one example is that libertarians are isolationists, while conservatives tend to be interventionists. You also seem completely ignorant to the fact that libertarians are neither liberal, nor conservative, but in fact libertarian, though from your POV (and those on Reddit I would suspect), libertarians probably are what you consider "conservative."

> Insofar as the conservative movement has been the home of free-market reform efforts since the 1960s at least, classical liberals, such as Objectivists, have taken part in conservative or right-wing political coalitions aimed at economic policy.

You are attempting to segment politics on a level that doesn't exist in the real world of US politics.

The fact is the Libertarian fiscal policies and the Conservative fiscal policies are for all purposes equal and equivalent in practical terms as both are aimed at free market reforms and the "libertarian" and "conservative" representatives of the Republican party both vote Yes on the same bills.

You can pretend otherwise (I guess) and argue a purely academic point (since you really seem to want to paint yourself into that corner).

Once again:

> If you feel libertarians are not "conservatives" it is because you are a social conservative. Yes, Reddit is not friendly to social conservatives but that is really the only bias you've presented. Fiscal conservatism is a libertarian belief, a conservative belief, and is represented by the positive news about Rand Paul.

> One who favors a balanced budget, prefering spending cuts or tax increases to borrowing, and wants to decrease government size, and promote a free market.

> On Wednesday, Tea Party Patriots highlighted Texas’ success in growing its economy through the principles of low taxes, low spending, and freer markets. As Katharine Ham reports, similar success stories are happening across the country as fiscal conservatives implement sound public policy. Meanwhile, states that continue to overspend – states like long-suffering California – continue to sag under the weight of massive debt, and as they raise taxes their citizens are departing for greener and more economically safe pastures.

> Monetary policy is a term used to refer to the actions of central banks to achieve macroeconomic policy objectives such as price stability, full employment, and stable economic growth. In the United States, the Congress established maximum employment and price stability as the macroeconomic objectives for the Federal Reserve; they are sometimes referred to as the Federal Reserve's dual mandate. Apart from these overarching objectives, the Congress determined that operational conduct of monetary policy should be free from political influence. As a result, the Federal Reserve is an independent agency of the federal government. Fiscal policy is a broad term used to refer to the tax and spending policies of the federal government. Fiscal policy decisions are determined by the Congress and the Administration; the Federal Reserve plays no role in determining fiscal policy.

Or you don't know what a fiscal policy or a fiscal conservative is. :/

EDIT: I give up. Its pointless to argue with someone who doesn't even know WTF I'm saying.
