QUESTIONNAIRE
OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES

I am in favor of construction of a wall and other necessary infrastructure on our border that gives complete control over entering and exiting the United States.
Strongly Agree
Governments should not discriminate against individuals, organizations or small businesses because of their belief that marriage is only a union of one man and one woman.
Strongly Agree
Governments should define marriage as between one man and one woman; no other definition of marriage should be legalized or supported with taxpayer or public funds.

It is the government’s responsibility to be sure everyone has health insurance.

Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
When the health of the mother is in grave jeopardy or instances of rape.
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of radical Islamic terrorism?
A secure border complete with a wall and an end to sanctuary cities is the most critical step for our security. A strong military combined with common sense vetting of all admitted to our country will insulate our country from the threat of terrorism. If we are not willing to take this first step, no other steps offer material levels of protection.
What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?
Our rights come from god, not man, thus it becomes necessary to follow the advice of our founders and chain down the powers of the government with the constitution.
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
Practical Catholic
When you consider your views on a wide range of issues from economic and social matters to foreign policy and immigration, which of the following best describes you overall?
Very Conservative
Please provide publicly available information validating your answer to the previous question.
I am 100% behind the second amendment, 100% pro-life, 100% behind term limits and 100% for tax cuts as well as an end to deficit spending.
How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?
The inflation in health care costs is entirely a government induced problem. Insurance companies enjoy artificial state wide monopolies. Government interference has lead limited residencies for new doctors, massive debt for those entering the medical field, and care that is determined by inefficient central planners not the relationship between a doctor and patient. Get government and trial lawyers out of health care and health care becomes more affordable.
What role should government play in boosting the economy?
The government exists to enforce property rights and create an environment where commerce can take place. Outside of that, government should be hands off.
What changes should be made to the tax code?
Ideally we would want to take steps to eliminate the IRS. As long as a persons income is seen as belonging to the state we cannot truly call ourselves a free country. Because there is much institutional weight behind the IRS, we need to support tax cuts any time and place and for any reason.
What is the best way to bring down unemployment?
The Trump administration has been great for employment, but more work needs to be done. Get government out of the way of business. American workers and businesses are ready to work, they just need to be free engage in commerce without being buried in red tape.
How would you guarantee Social Security benefits for future generations?
Social security is a ponzi scheme that cannot mathematically be saved. We cannot continue to hide from the fact that the money is all gone. What used to be a trust fund has been turned into a slush fund for government largess. The question is do we put out heads in the sand until the system collapses, or do we take steps to transition to a liberty minded solution. We need to take care of the people who rely on social security for retirement, eliminate social security fraud, and offer young workers the opportunity to use their social security contributions how they see best.
What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
I don't consider my formal education a qualification for office. Top universities have become breeding grounds for marxist thinking. Being in the business community for two decades, a person of god, being a landlord that reviews countless financial statements, and the common sense knowledge that we can't continue to be a country where families can only save 5% of their income is not sustainable, those are my qualifications.
E-mail address and phone number for voters to reach you:

Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?
I am 100% Pro Life, 100% behind the second Amendment, 100% behind term limits, and 100% against amnesty. I support Donald Trump. I will oppose any trade deals that send our intellectual property to foreign governments and any trade deals that do not offer our companies the same access to their markets that we offer to them. I do not believe our military should be subsidizing the defense of Europe, Middle East and Asian where countries don't pay their fair share. I also support ending the violation of our privacy and the selling of our personal data by silicon valley.
