A Follow up to Republican Schisms

I feel as if I should say which of the three factions is the most dangerous, and that would have to be, without a doubt, the economic conservatives. I feel as though the neoconservatives are war-mongers to be sure, but there aren't that many of them, and they don't have a ton of money behind them. The social conservatives are adorably harmless, but function as the massive voting block and foot soldiers of the GOP. When this faction schisms off, the Republican party is done. However, by far the most dangerous faction is the economic conservatives. I've stipulated in a previous post that I sort of like government, and you should too. I've stated openly before that Ronald Regan was likely the worst thing to happen to this country in a century. He set back the middle class in this country by a hundred years, and spent us into as a hole we've yet to recover from. Like your roads? Fire department? School? How about the entire middle class? All of those are threatened by small government conservatives.
