8>8 Personal answerI believe nuclear is the option we ought to incentivise. |

8>8 Personal answerNo, there is no way it'd be a successful program. Who'd pay for it but us? |

the Environment › Animal Testing
8>8 Personal answerYes, but not for cosmetics |

8>8 Personal answerNo |
Crime › Drug Trafficking Penalties
8>8 Personal answerYes, but only if there is proof someone died from the drugs they trafficked |

8>8 Personal answerI have no stance. |
Immigration › Dual Citizenship
8>8 Personal answerYes, unless they have committed a crime |
Crime › Criminal Voting Rights
8>8 Personal answerIt honestly depends on the crime. Murderer? No way. Tax evasion or fraud? Perhaps. But things like minor offences I think still allow them the right to vote. |
the Environment › Plastic Product Ban
8>8 Personal answerThere is so much plastic already, that we should try to recycle as much as possible and decrease further production. We should also incentivise biodegradable product innovation or other green initiatives. |
Foreign Policy › Terrorism
8>8 Personal answerNo, they should be tried in military tribunals but not subject to torture |
National Security › Military Congressional Approval
8>8 Personal answerUnless time is a resource we don't have, military campaigns should go through congress. |

8>8 Personal answerUnless there is clear evidence they have or plan on attacking our country or citizenry, then no. |
Science › Space Exploration
