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.
I like D in theory. However, it would not be conservative or compassionate to cut off those that truly need that help in our aging population. And we can’t let kids die either. Those are some responsibilities of an organized society, to protect those that are most at risk in those situations. They are bloated systems that could be streamlined, and cracking down on fraud and abuse. So, my honest answer has to be C.

What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
Nuclear seems as if it could be done right. Most bang for the buck. Stopping the electric car nonsense would be the best thing for our grid.
