Here are your answers compared to this voter’s answers.
Social › Abortion
4>4 Personal answerPro-choice, and providing birth control, sex education, and more social services will help reduce the number of abortions |
Social › Gay Marriage
4>4 Personal answerYes |
the Economy › Equal Pay
4>4 Personal answerYes |
Domestic Policy › Gun Control
4>4 Personal answerYes, require strict background checks, psychological testing, and training |
Social › Gender Identity
4>4 Personal answerThis is a huge problem. Each human being needs to be treated with great respect. Gender identity is one area that challenges us on both sides of the debate. When persons "chose" a gender they want to identify with different than what they born with, that does not automatically give them certain rights. The right to privacy is one that is currently being challenged on this issue. Bathroom usage becomes huge. Just because you choose to identify with my gender, does not mean I either want to or should have to share a bathroom with you if you are of a different gender genetically. I am willing to accept you in all other areas and treat you respectfully, but your insistence on sharing a bathroom with me is not treating me respectfully, if you are a different genetic gender than I am. This requires a very nuanced and sensitive response of a much greater quality than homosexuality does. |
Social › Religious Freedom Act
4>4 Personal answerNo |
Immigration › Muslim Immigrant Ban
4>4 Personal answerNo |
Social › Planned Parenthood Funding
4>4 Personal answerYes, their services reach far beyond abortions and can save many lives through cancer screening, prenatal services, and adoption referrals |
the Economy › Minimum Wage
4>4 Personal answerYes, and adjust it every year according to inflation |
the Environment › Climate Change
4>4 Personal answerYes, and provide more incentives for alternative energy production |
the Economy › Paid Sick Leave
4>4 Personal answerYes, but the federal government should sponsor this program instead of businesses |
Domestic Policy › Drug Policy
4>4 Personal answerYes, and retroactively reduce sentences for those already serving time |
Domestic Policy › Term Limits
4>4 Personal answerYes, term limits will increase performance and prevent corruption |
Foreign Policy › Mandatory Military Service
4>4 Personal answerA combination of all of the last three YES answers. I think every teenager who has gotten in trouble with the law, at age 18 should be required to serve time in the military to learn skills that will help them get on with a law abiding life. This should be included as a part of their sentencing if found guilty. Other than those 18 year olds, the rest should be by volunteer only. |
Domestic Policy › Muslim Surveillance
4>4 Personal answerNo, targeting Muslims is unconstitutional, racist, and incendiary |
Education › Student Loans
4>4 Personal answerYes |
Immigration › Immigration
4>4 Personal answerNo, they must formally apply like every other new citizen |
Social › Death Penalty
4>4 Personal answerNo |
Healthcare › Marijuana
4>4 Personal answerYes, and legalize, tax, and regulate marijuana instead of criminalizing it |
Social › Government Mandates
4>4 Personal answerYes |
Social › Confederate Flag
4>4 Personal answerNo |
Domestic Policy › No-Fly List Gun Control
4>4 Personal answerYes, but not until the no-fly list screening process is improved for accuracy and includes due process |

4>4 Personal answerNo, and abolish the NSA |

4>4 Personal answerNo |
Immigration › Immigration Healthcare
4>4 Personal answerYes |
Social › Gender Workplace Diversity
4>4 Personal answerOne has to be careful that we do no require government to become too intrusive into our personal lives, but I would answer YES for all Publicly traded companies. Companies privately owned and not traded on any stock exchange, can do as they please in this regard. |
the Environment › Alternative Energy
4>4 Personal answerYes, the government should support more sustainable energy technologies |
Elections › Voter Fraud
4>4 Personal answerThere is little evidence that voter fraud exists except where limitations are placed on people like photo ID. SO I do not support photo ID, at least until we have a system in place where every citizen gets a Photo ID and automatic registration to vote when they turn 18, with a "grandfather" clause for those already over the age of 18 who do not already have some form of photo ID. It could be mandated that States are required to supply this photo ID for free to all citizens, the first time, and that the State is required to assist poor and indigent in acquiring this photo ID so that no one is discriminated against. |
Immigration › Immigrant Laborers
4>4 Personal answerYes, create a simple path to citizenship for immigrants with no criminal record |
Domestic Policy › Patriot Act
4>4 Personal answerNo, and pass strict laws prohibiting government surveillance without probable cause and a warrant |

Foreign Policy › Israel
4>4 Personal answerNo we need to stop Israel's Holocaust against the Palestinians, call a spade a spade, and force Israel to negotiate with the Palestinians in good faith, or lose all military, financial, and other support until they stop killing Palestinians, and create a real, internationally verifiable, two separate states with their own boundaries. They further must give back all Palestinian territories taken illegally since the 1966 war. |
Immigration › Immigrant Assimilation
4>4 Personal answerYes |
Domestic Policy › Gun Liability
4>4 Personal answerYes |
Domestic Policy › Net Neutrality
4>4 Personal answerNo, treat all traffic equally and continue the openness of the internet |

Social › Euthanasia
4>4 Personal answerA combination of the last two Yes answers |
Immigration › Skilled Immigrants
4>4 Personal answerIncrease |
Domestic Policy › Affirmative Action
4>4 Personal answerNo, but we need more active prosecution for discrimination in work, school, or other public environments/endeavors. |
the Economy › Labor Unions
4>4 Personal answerThey are mixed in economic influence, sometimes they help and sometimes they hurt. They would be a stronger help if they did not defend unproductive or poorly productive workers. By defending poor work quality, they pull down the overall work quality in the work environment, which in the long run hurts the economy. On the other hand when they combat unfairness in the work place they help the overall economy. |

Foreign Policy › Foreign Aid
4>4 Personal answerDecrease |
Foreign Policy › Drones
4>4 Personal answerYes, but only with permission from the country in question |
Domestic Policy › Social Security
4>4 Personal answerA combination of stop spending current funds on other programs, eliminate the income cap on taxable earnings, and increase the amount paid out if people are willing and able to choose an older retirement age, so that choosing a younger retirement age is not financially advantageous as it currently appears to be. |
Foreign Policy › Terrorism
4>4 Personal answerYes, give them a fair trial and shut down Guantanamo Bay |

the Economy › Pension Reform
4>4 Personal answerTheir plans should be no different, or better than the average citizen's plans, this is especially true for Congress and the Senate. These roles should not be a guarantee of living out the rest of your life wealthy. |

4>4 Personal answerI don't have a stance. |
the Economy › Trans-Pacific Partnership
4>4 Personal answerNo |
