re: Biden polling at 31%; 19% with Hispanics

These are just my opinions (on how I view an issue as being cultural vs economic). You're more than welcome to disagree and I won't argue it.

quote:

---

universal health care

---

Economic issue, not cultural. Health savings versus Health costs. I'm not in favor of UHC but for me, healthcare is an economic issue, not cultural.

quote:

---

protecting public education

---

Wouldn't agree this is cultural but economic. Public education is about educating labor.

quote:

---

climate change

---

Economic issue, not cultural.

quote:

---

LGBTQ/gender issues

---

Cultural but letting people do what they want regarding gender/sex/relationship seems to suggest the opposite of legislating culture, instead giving freedom to people who want to date who they want.

If a man wants to chop off his dick, that should be his right.

quote:

---

cancelling student loan debt

---

Economic issue that I disagree with, not cultural.

quote:

---

Title IX protections

---

Cultural but I don't have an opinion on this one.

quote:

---

race relations (affirmative action, reparations)

---

No mainstream Democrat is advocating for reparations.

My view on this that affirmative action is an economic issue. Private institutions that are not funded by the state should be allowed to choose who they want (as long as they don't receive tax breaks for being a charity/government funding of any kind). Public institutions should not be allowed to implement any sort of affirmative action.

quote:

---

so-called “clean” energy

---

Economic issue, not cultural.

quote:

---

culturally “relevant” curriculum in schools

---

Cultural but not one that I'm particularly concerned with or think is happening. I think individual schools should have the right to teach what they want and parents have the right to vote with their feet (withdraw their kids from school districts).

quote:

---

oversight of firearms

---

Cultural, this one is one I don't agree with Democrats on. Freedom should mean the freedom to own fire-arms.

quote:

---

tuition-free higher education

---

Economic issue, not cultural.

I view most of these issues as being economic, not cultural and I've been pretty clear I disagree with Democrats economically.

The only cultural issue I think Democrats are particularly wrong on is firearms and affirmative action (to the extent that private sector institutions classed as charities and any institution receiving funding should not be allowed to use race in admissions.

Everything else I either view as economic or being free from a cultural restriction, not cultural freedom.
