I stumbled on this thanks to Megan McArdle’s RSS over at The Atlantic.

Meanwhile, with the obsolescence of the anti-communist alliance with conservatives, many libertarians have sloughed off much of their previously tactically useful sympathy for socially conservative initiatives. Freed to be full-on social liberals, many libertarians are left sensing a much deeper cultural affinity for the left than the right. And this leads naturally to seeing more clearly their ideological affinities with welfare liberals.

I feel this ideology is gaining popularity among college kids and maybe even the general public. It’s a shame (though unsurprising) that no candidate embraces a true fiscal conservative / social liberal platform.
