Here are your answers compared to this voter’s answers.
Social › LGBT Adoption Rights
5>5 Personal answerThat is a hard question as I believe that every child should have a father and a mother. It is the healthiest way for a child to develop, in my opinion |
Social › Abortion
5>5 Personal answerPro-life |
Social › Gay Marriage
5>5 Personal answerNo |
the Economy › Equal Pay
5>5 Personal answerNo, there are too many other variables such as education, experience, and tenure that determine a fair salary |
Domestic Policy › Gun Control
5>5 Personal answerYes, there should definitely be more restrictions: 1) a longer waiting period while more thorough back-ground checks are made 2) no private individual/company should be allowed to purchase or own an assault weapon. These weapons should be restricted to military and law enforcement only 3) only people who can provide certification that they have been trained to use a gun, should be allowed to own a gun. |
Crime › Police Body Cameras
5>5 Personal answerYes |
Social › Gender Identity
5>5 Personal answerNo |
Social › Religious Freedom Act

Immigration › Muslim Immigrant Ban
5>5 Personal answerNo, but we should ban immigrants from “high risk” countries |
Social › Planned Parenthood Funding
5>5 Personal answerNo |
the Economy › Minimum Wage
5>5 Personal answerA reasonable increase dependent on the job. It is stupid to say that a person cannot "raise a family" while working at McDonalds, etc. No kidding, I worked at McDonalds in college, just to make some spending money, not to buy a house and raise a family. Unskilled labor should not be making the same money as an entry level position at a company. Essentially you are discouraging people from aspiring to a higher level of education, if they can make the same money slinging hash or flipping burgers |
the Environment › Climate Change
5>5 Personal answerYes |
the Economy › Paid Sick Leave
5>5 Personal answerA reasonable amount of time seems fair (4 -6 weeks top). The problem is, many people do take advantage of this program and stretch it into months, which I think is an unfair burden to the company and to those employees who have to pick up the slack |

Immigration › Immigrant Laborers
5>5 Personal answerNo |
Domestic Policy › Patriot Act
5>5 Personal answerYes |
the Economy › Government Spending
5>5 Personal answerCuts should be made to some areas of public spending - People rely too much on the government and not on themselves. I for one do not want to be spoon fed pabulum, when I can work for my own choices. |

5>5 Personal answerYes |
Immigration › Immigrant Assimilation
5>5 Personal answerYes |
Domestic Policy › Net Neutrality
5>5 Personal answerNo |
Social › First Amendment
5>5 Personal answerNo |
Domestic Policy › Gun Liability
5>5 Personal answerI do not believe that manufacturers should be sued, I do believe that certain dealers, who have not done their due diligence in doing back-ground checks before selling weapons, should be held accountable. |
Crime › Solitary Confinement for Juveniles
5>5 Personal answerYes |
Social › Euthanasia
5>5 Personal answerNo |
Immigration › Skilled Immigrants
5>5 Personal answerDecrease, and the government should provide more incentives to prepare our citizens for these jobs |
Domestic Policy › Affirmative Action
5>5 Personal answerNo |
the Economy › Labor Unions
5>5 Personal answerHurt, I support some private unions but am strongly against public unions |
the Economy › Capital Gains Tax
5>5 Personal answerNo, increasing the capital gains tax will limit investment in our economy |
Immigration › In-State Tuition
5>5 Personal answerNo |
the Environment › Oil Drilling

5>5 Personal answerYes |
Science › Space Exploration
5>5 Personal answerYes, and drastically increase NASA’s current budget |
the Economy › Offshore Banking
5>5 Personal answerIf US citizens and/or companies want to invest in offshore accounts, it should be with the understanding that a % of that investment should still be taxed (example: a loan out company not qualified to do business in CA., is required to pay a 7% franchise tax to work in CA). So there should be an offshore franchise tax, for not doing business in the US |
Domestic Policy › Edward Snowden
5>5 Personal answerNo |
the Economy › Federal Reserve
5>5 Personal answerOur country was on a stronger financial foundation when we were on the Gold standard. The current president prints money on a whim, which is risky and incredibly unstable at best |

5>5 Personal answerYes, surveillance of all foreign countries is essential to tracking potential terrorist threats |
Foreign Policy › Cuba
5>5 Personal answerNo |
the Economy › Farm Subsidies
5>5 Personal answerThe government should help farmers and in turn, the nation's farmers can help to feed the hungry of this country. Rather than paying farmers not to farm, encourage them to grow more, the more hungry people are fed, the less money they will need from Federally funded welfare subsidies. |
Foreign Policy › Russian Airstrikes in Syria
5>5 Personal answerI cannot comment on this one |
the Economy › Property Taxes
5>5 Personal answerNo, but decrease tax rates for senior citizens |
the Economy › Pension Reform
5>5 Personal answerGovernment pensions across the board are way too high - Have you ever walked into a government office to get some help? Many of the employees act like they are too good to help the average Joe, if they worked in the private sector they might be kicked to the street by the end of the day. I believe in pensions, but within reason and the local, state and federal government pension plans are far from reasonable. |
the Economy › Bitcoin
5>5 Personal answerNo, classify it as a commodity |
the Economy › Trans-Pacific Partnership
5>5 Personal answerThis should be a limited partnership in that, Yes - American companies can sell goods and services, however they cannot physically move services and jobs overseas. That would encourage growth for the country and US companies. |
the Economy › Online Sales Tax
5>5 Personal answerNo, the federal government does not have the authority to impose state and local taxes |
