Except no one knows what "fiscal conservative" means anymore.
- Is it spending more on military?
- Is it shrinking government services? (which is really more libertarian than conservative)
- Is it paying down debt?
People like to pretend that "fiscal conservative" somehow means "responsible with money" but what it actually seems to mean is "spend even more money and grift as much of it as possible to yourself and your friends with very little value going back to the people".
If it is just "responsible with money" that people want then you could literally get that from any party. For all we know, Elizabeth May could be the absolute best person to run a balanced budget but we'll never know because Green = gross.
