OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.
Strongly Agree
The lives of human embryos created through artificial methods ought to be protected from purposeful destruction.
Strongly Agree
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
Only for health of the Mother, advised by a Doctor.
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).

No taxpayer money should ever be used for abortions ever.
The Comstock Act, which bans interstate transportation of abortion-inducing drugs, should be enforced.

ECONOMY
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
People who can afford to pay more taxes should do so in order to provide relief for working families.
Strongly Disagree
The government should cut spending in order to reduce the national debt.
Strongly Agree
List your top 3-5 priorities to eliminate government waste.
Reduce the size and scope of the federal government, clearly define the roll and authority of each agency, make government employees accountable for their actions with consequences for mistakes such as demotions or losing their job. Limit legislative lobby activities, Institute some type of limit on the number of spending provisions added to a bill.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
Protects each entity from infringing on the rights and responsibilities of the other.
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. (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) Taxpayer funded health care should be abolished in all forms, and Medicaid and Medicare should be defunded.
C would be the best option however option B is more practical in the sense that insurance could be available that is government funded for a limited period of time for those who qualify for economic reasons.
The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.
Strongly Disagree
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.
The options listed are not practical in the complicated world we live in. Yes we as a nation have a duty to defend freedom, however each situation is unique. A selective policy would be attractive but again each situation is unique as to imminent danger any unstable country is a threat to world stability staying out of foreign conflicts is not possible as the leader of the free world.
