OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.
Strongly Agree
I have always been Prolife.
The lives of human embryos created through artificial methods ought to be protected from purposeful destruction.
Strongly Agree
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
I believe God created us with Free Will. When a person is a victim of a violent act, such as, rape or incest, that person has their God given right of Free Will denied. The life of the mother. At all times victims of violence should be encouraged to protect life.
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Disagree
The Comstock Act, which bans interstate transportation of abortion-inducing drugs, should be enforced.
Strongly Agree
ECONOMY
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
People who can afford to pay more taxes should do so in order to provide relief for working families.
Disagree
Most current forms of government at this time in our history are corrupt and into "grift." Working families are the innocent victims of globalism, deficit spending, excess regulation, and grift taxation.
The government should cut spending in order to reduce the national debt.
Strongly Agree
List your top 3-5 priorities to eliminate government waste.
End programs that support mythical theories of climate change (end climate change grift). End programs that support social justice grift. Enhance penalties for fraud.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
Establishment clause does not mean that God is banned from government. No state sanctioned church. Government should be guided by morality. Since we have government "by the people," government should be a reflection of a moral populace. Discourse about God throughout our institutions should not be hindered.
HEALTHCARE
What most closely matches your view on healthcare: A) Healthcare for all should be guaranteed and funded by the government with no private healthcare option. (includes "universal healthcare," "medicare for all," etc.) B) Healthcare insurance funded by the government should be available for all who want it, along with private healthcare options. C) Medicaid and Medicare should remain available, but no other taxpayer-funded programs are necessary. D) Taxpayer funded health care should be abolished in all forms, and Medicaid and Medicare should be defunded.
C. I think entrepreneurial medicine should be encouraged aggressively. More competition.
The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.
Strongly Disagree
NATIONAL SECURITY
With regard to America's foreign policy, which view most closely resembles yours: A) The United States should intervene whenever freedom is threatened. B) The United States should selectively help countries trying to grow democracy and fight tyranny. C) The United States has become too involved in others' policies and should remain focused on issues regarding our own sovereignty unless in imminent danger. D) The United States should stay out of foreign conflicts completely.
B.
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.

Yes. Common values and freedom.

VALUES

Strongly Agree
Life is a battle (Saint Augustine). God's battle unit is the family and that is why Satan attacks the family. The most important economic organization in a society is the family. 1 Timothy 5:8
