I am first Economic, second Social, third Environmental, though the Social and Environmental are very close together. IMO, I relate this to Maslow's heirachy in that there needs to be a base in order to address other needs. For example, people need money in order to address Social and Envrironmental concerns. Everything costs money, so for me, Economic policy is the most important. It's not really that simple, but that's a bit how my needs in politics lie.

I'm somewhat similar but my reasoning is different.
The Economy is something that benefits everyone and where the Government can have a direct and immediate influence.
A Constant Current Factor.
Social progress takes time and participation, but further, social progress is smoother and easier within a prosperous society, so if the Economy is doing well, people arent struggling then social progress is more likely to be embraced.
Mid-Term Factor.
Environment. Happy and prosperous people will be more willing to divert their energies to more complex tasks.
Long-Term Factor.
