14. What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers within the Constitution?
The Founding Fathers believed that the public had to be protected against the tyranny of government, having suffered under British colonial rule. They believed that it was a natural right for people to be free and not subject to tyranny of government. The believed that it was necessary to have three separate, but equal branches of government so that power would be not limted to any particular branch.
15. Briefly list three (3) political or legislative issues of most concern to you, and explain why each is important to you.
My three main concerns is the national debt, that will likely cause a dollar collapse in about four years; the inability of the public to unelect Washington politicians and the corruption of the election system. The first, and by far the most important, is a simple solution to our jobs problem... the eliminiating federal corporate taxes. Trillions of foreign dollars will flood this country overnight, creating millions of new jobs in new facilities and factories. We will become THE global tax haven. Two, a practical version of the Term Limits Amendment is to void congressional pensions if they stay too long - no more than twelve years. If congresspeople run again, their pensions automatically void. They will quit in droves. Three, give all left over campaign money to charity so no incumbent or candidate has any in their campaign bank accounts, and stop new donations until election years. This will end amassing of tens of millions of dollars to block challengers to incumbents.
16. Should abortion be allowed under extenuating circumstances? If so, what circumstances?
Yes, especially when the mother's life is in danger and in the event of rape. The abortion issue is emotional by nature and has no resolution that the public will agree on. I think that the federal government should not have any legal or financial input, as it is a state's issue and the resolution, if there is one, is at the state level.
17. Based on the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution, please arrange the following entities, starting with the highest source of authority, and continue the list in descending order of authority, skipping any that do not apply: Academia, Congress, Constitution, God, Industry, Media, Professional Sports, Supreme Court, Voters.
God Constitution Congress Supreme Court Voters Industry Academia Media Professional Sports
18. Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
My spiritual values are limited. I was born and raised Jewish, in London, England. I was religious and attended my local synagogue every week until 16 1/2. An event at 16 1/2 caused me to lose my faith. I do support other people to maintain their beliefs without issue. Although it would be better for me to avoid this question, I have not. It is important to state that our nation's immediate problems are based on a secular, impending economic disaster when our U.S. dollar collapses in about four years. I can fix that. Being secular in nature helps me focus on resolving this problem, and to provide well-paid full employment for American workers. The public sends people to Washington to do an honest, good job for them and our nation. I can and will.
