QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?

HEALTHCARE
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.

C) Medicaid and Medicare should remain available, but no other taxpayer-funded programs are necessary. D) Taxpayer funded health care should be abolished in all forms, and Medicaid and Medicare should be defunded.
government should stop limiting the number of doctors allowed per year and at a time. This is the only way to lower medical cost
