Congress should pass a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution.

Socialism provides a robust foundation for a stable economy.

By removing regulations that hinder job creators. Moving to a more Free Market economy with lower taxes on businesses and people.

None. With the exception of working to remove barriers to the free market.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Governments should not discriminate against individuals, organizations or business owners because of their deeply held religious beliefs.

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

How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?
Allow insurance companies to cross state lines to give individuals better options to fit their healthcare needs. I believe the more our government gets involved with healthcare, the higher the cost will be to the average american.

Strongly Agree
Parents should be the primary authority in decisions affecting their minor children.
Strongly Agree
What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?
Aristocrat rule that gave too much power to one individual. Government should be run by the people and not from a central planning office.
