OTHER INFORMATION
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
I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.
Strongly Disagree
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
None
ECONOMY
Redistribution of income is needed to lessen the gap between the wealthy and working classes.
Disagree
The government should cut spending in order to reduce the national debt.
Agree
What changes, if any, should be made to the tax code?
The rich 1% should not be able to create, or fund influence on Politicians - to avoid paying their fair share of taxes. No more loopholes for the rich!
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Religious liberty is at risk in the United States and deserves the highest level of protection in the law.
Strongly Agree
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
What should be the relationship between the church and the state?
The Government has no business mandating controls, which limits, or prevents, an individuals right to worship.
HEALTHCARE
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
Limited requirement, only in dire public safety instances - Covid did not meet that criteria and was an extreme, abusive , example of government overreach, to help big pharma and its investors profit at public expense
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.
Our country is not set up like the EU which we helped put in place after WWII. Obamacare has proven to be neither affordable, or accessible, and unlike universal Healthcare in the EU, does not provide quality Healthcare to prevent patients health from deteriorating. Obamacare provides substandard care - we don't need more of that!
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.
We are not the world's police, and we should stop involving our countrybin costly, endless wars, that provide little to no direct benefit to the American taxpayer. The faures of the current administration in the bungled pullout in Afghanistan - where Biden armed the Taliban terrorists with billions of dollars of sensitive US military equipment, is definite proof of that issue. We handed Afghanistan back t o the abusive oppressor who we claimed supported the terrorists that attacked us on September 11, 2001. Why would we put American lives in harms way again?
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
Involving ourselves in the pitical, and security issues in Isreal, again, is political overreach. Let Isreal handle it's own government and security issues.
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Disagree
If they posed such a direct military threat, why did Nixon open the door to trade with China in 1972? And why have we allowed them to kill off our countries own self reliance when that tree agreement killed off our own manufacturing sector, so greedy CEO'scould continue to grow their own incomes - while destroying those of US workers? Now China is buying up US farmland and property - that willnotbode well for us in the long run, if we lose our ability to farm our own land, and feed our citizens.
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of Islamic terrorism?
Stop handing over control, and arming, terrorists! This only serves to make us look weak, and easily manipulated by terrorists - and those that sponsor them. Never formally recognizing the Taliban-run Afghanistan as a legitimate government, would be a good step forward in further proving that the US will NOT negotiate with terrorists.
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Strongly Agree
A weak, unsecured border allows criminals, terrorists, and other dangerous, law-breaking foreigners to easily come into our country - putting ALL American lives in harms way. It also overburdens our system when those who illegally cross over, then expect to receive free benefits that the American taxed is billed for. We have a LEGAL process that requires numerous documents, security and health screenings, and fees to immigrate LEGALLY, anyone who breaks these laws, should be forcibly deported.
State and federal funds shall be denied to any public or private entity, such as a sanctuary city, that is not in compliance with immigration laws.
Strongly Agree
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
Only those who apply LEGALLY, fill out the security documents, pass health checks, and pay the fees required - all lawbreakers who enter illegally, should be forcibly deported and banned indefinitely for breaking our laws. Refugees escaping a war zone or proven persecution - like Afghan citizens who helped the US Government or military, and aren't hunted and killed by the Taliban, for example. Those looking for free handouts who enter illegally, should notbegranted the same privilege.
VALUES
Sexual orientation and gender identity should be protected classes in non-discrimination laws.
Strongly Disagree
There are two genders as defined by humans DNA - male, and female...
I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.
Strongly Disagree
CRT is in and of itself the promotion , and teaching, if ce based discrimination and discriminatory ideology based on the shade on one's skin. Guiltingbthose who were born with a lighter shade of brown that they are somehow guilty of perceived racial discrimination prejudices of past Americans. This should be illegal - as promoting racism by exclusion based on lighter skin tone to justify guiltily those individuals into creating responsibility for slavery, and the other human horrors of our past
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
Christian, who believes that " Whatsoever you do to the lest of my brothers, therefor you do unto me" We are reflections as Christians of our own behavior towards others; however, as a Christian, I believe that we are also bound to live by a set of laws, and rules that guide us. No laws equates into no control, whereas the criminals would then run everything. We need laws to keep order, and to give us direction and purpose as a group...
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
No proper identification opens the door for fruadulentvoting and endemic cheating opportunities. ID'S must be shown to vote to prove that you are legally allowed to cast a ballot, period. And is necessary, to ensure a safe and secure voting system, that protects the sanctity of our entire election process.
What laws would you propose to change present voting practices?
No large scale mail in votes for starters. Better security at the ballot box, and in counting procedures. Proper valid ID to vote. A secure electronic voting system that cannot be easily hacked, or manipulated. Stricter vote counting procedures that do not allow counting to stop for any reason - in such cases where voting is stopped, and thousands of ballots are suddenly "found" those ballots need to be desertification as illegitimate, or the entire election needs to be invalidated for fraud. The ballot counting should never stop for any reason - unless fraud is suspected, in which case the entire election should be involved invalidated, and a new election set for a later date. The fraud should be immediately investigated, and indictments should be forthcoming for any and all officials responsible.
EQUALITY
Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.
Strongly Disagree
Never. No one alive today was a slave on a Democrat-run plantation. To expect Americans who b ad no involvement in the wrongful enslavement of Africans, is like blaming your ex spousrs grandparents for the domestic abuse you suffered at his hands...You cannot hold present day Americans economically responsible for the past egregious actions of others...
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
The perception of racism is more dangerous today, as it leads to the incitement of anger and violent uprisings, riots, and destruction of property of innocent Americans not directly involved...
ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT
I support the use of hydraulic fracking to extract oil and natural gas resources.
