In his recent book, “The Conservative Heart,” AEI President Arthur C. Brooks asserts that conservatives should care about social justice. The conservative social justice agenda, writes Brooks, is about making earned success possible:
Fighting for people doesn’t mean a massive catalog of new government programs. It does not mean occupying a park and railing against the “1 percent.” It means thinking carefully about who is in need and how their need can best be met. In some cases, such as caring for the truly poor, the right solution may well involve the government. In others – such as needy children caught in ineffective schools and entrepreneurs struggling to start businesses – the proper conservative answer is for the government to stop creating harm and get out of the way. In both cases, conservatives can and should be bold warriors for vulnerable people.
