Disagree
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
This should be allowed until the end of the first trimester

The Federal government should only make sure abortions are a legally protect medical procedure
ECONOMY
What actions would you take that would allow Americans to retain more of their income and wealth?
I believe no new taxes should be brought out for the working class. We should close the loopholes in our tax code and make the ultra rich pay their fair share. While doing this increasing the minimum wage and capping CEO pay at a certain amount.

If it is necessary to protect the disabled and/or everbody from a preventable diseases. Vaccines should be tested by independent group outside of government and corporations control.
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.
A I believe healthcare is a human right and should not be used for profit.

With regard to America's foreign policy, which view most closely resembles yours: A) The United States should intervene whenever freedom is threatened.

Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?

EDUCATION
I support school choice, including voucher programs, tax credits, charter schools, private schools, and home schools.
