QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Agree
Not so much Planned Parenthood. The government should not be giving money to anyone for any reason.
I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.
Strongly Agree
People should have the right to own their bodies.
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
If the health of the baby or mother is in jeopardy. Outside of that, the non aggression principle forbids the woman from aggressing against her baby.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Religious liberty is at risk in the United States and deserves the highest level of protection in the law.
Neutral
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
People and businesses should b free to decide who to serve. Dumb business decision but its the business owners choice.
What should be the relationship between the church and the state?
Non existent.
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.
D
I support the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement to pressure Israel to withdraw from occupied territories, remove the separation barrier in the West Bank, allow full equality for Arab-Palestinian citizens of Israel, and promote the rights of Palestinian refugees.
Strongly Disagree
It's not my (American's) problem. Let the Israelis and Palestinians sort it out.
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Agree
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of Islamic terrorism?
Stop funding "rebel" groups who then turn into terrorist cells.
HEALTHCARE
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
None. Never ever should governments or their affiliates dictate what goes into my body.
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)Tax-payer funded health care should be abolished in all forms, and Medicaid and Medicare should be de-funded.
D. Government distorts every market in which they are involved.
ECONOMY
Redistribution of income is needed to lessen the gap between the wealthy and working classes.
Strongly Disagree
Government should not be involved at all. The market should decide all winners and losers.
The government should cut spending in order to reduce the national debt.
Strongly Agree
Government spending should be halved for starters. Anything not in Article 1 Section 8 should be abolished and left for the states.
What changes, if any, should be made to the tax code?
Abolish it and repeal the 16th amendment
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Strongly Disagree
I dont believe in borders...then again I dont believe in the welfare state either. We have loose borders and a welfare state. That's a bad combination. We can have one or the other

CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
Police officers should be personally immune from prosecution for conduct consistent with departmental policy (qualified immunity) while on duty.

Ending qualified immunity would help keep police accountable for their actions.
I support redirecting funds from police departments to mental health and community programs.
Choose not to answer
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
none
Victims of gun violence should be able to sue firearms dealers and manufacturers.

No. Can I sue McDonalds for making me fat?
