Carson.
I agree that spiritual and cultural concerns are of equal, and sometimes greater, importance than material ones. However, politics revolves around material concerns, and so called "social issues" are primarily meant to distract attention away from economic issues (by special interest groups on both sides, admittedly).
The best way to fix most of the problems of concern in social issues, such as crime, abortion, drug use, etc. is to have a thriving economy, especially in terms of equality of opportunity for those in the lower and middle classes.
