Saving the Nation's Soul While the Economy Goes to Hell

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% : Alexis de Tocqueville, the French government emissary who famously visited a young United States in the first half of the 19 century, emphasized the personal importance of capitalism to the American populace.
47% : America's collective soul apparently demands accepting that the 14th Amendment's protection against a state depriving "any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law" somehow extends to "intimate choices that define personal identity and beliefs" and that this, in turn, "compels the conclusion that same-sex couples may exercise the right to marry," as the Obergefell decision ruled.
43% : It may sound like a ludicrous question, but so did same-sex marriage before the Dutch legalized it in 2001.
30% : The American people have full power to amend our Constitution to make abortion, artificial contraception, same-sex marriage, and anything else a federal right.
