Here are your answers compared to this voter’s answers.
Social › Abortion
4>4 Personal answerPro-life, but allow in cases of rape, incest, or danger to the mother or child |
Social › Gay Marriage
4>4 Personal answerNo, marriage should be defined as between a man and woman |
the Economy › Equal Pay
4>4 Personal answerYes, and businesses should be required to publish their salary ranges for each position |
Domestic Policy › Gun Control
4>4 Personal answerRestrictions should include: strict background checks; NO convicted criminal or someone with verified/documents mental health issues can own/possess any type of gun/firearm; increase financial and penal institution-stay penalties for all gun-related crimes (not proven "accidental" situations); ASSAULT weapons for legal and military authorities only - to defend civilians and military/law enforcement personnel (& other limited instances- ie: verifiable "national security" situations.) |
Social › Religious Freedom Act
4>4 Personal answerYes, but the owner must post a sign stating their beliefs and what they refuse |
Immigration › Muslim Immigrant Ban
4>4 Personal answerWe need more steps in place to complete effective background checks on ANY IMMIGRANTS attempting entry onto US soil. THIS IS OUR HOME & we are obligated to defend it and our legal citizens. This should NOT be aimed at Muslims only, but anyone. |
Social › Planned Parenthood Funding
4>4 Personal answerInstead of being a CONSTANT source of money being provided to IRRESPONSIBLE people to avoid pregnancies, or pay (for the next 18 years) for every illegitimate child that's produced & really NOT wanted (except for the welfare it brings in for the "parents"): pay one-time costs for necessary surgeries to prevent more pregnancies and/or remove these children to go into homes of those who cannot have (but truly want) children THEY can afford to support on their own, without government subsidies! |
the Economy › Minimum Wage
4>4 Personal answerRaising minimum wages to a comprehensible living wage is necessary, however, just because the minimum wage may be increased (due to increase costs created by industries) to compensate for COL; people who earn hundreds of thousands of dollars both in private and government positions really have NO NEED for their wages to increase! If a common sense human being "feels" they CANNOT survive on$100K - $100M+ per year, that's their problem. Go BUY better feelings for yourself. The COL is meant to be used to help those who WORK and attempt to be law-abiding, productive members of society to stay OFF welfare & the government dole! |
the Environment › Climate Change
4>4 Personal answerI do not know if any government can "prevent" this "global warming" concept, however, if any of us in this world could help us live better using natural, sustainable, non-polluting resources (ie: the sun/wind/water powers) I feel that would be the most responsible, healthy way to proceed. |
the Economy › Paid Sick Leave
4>4 Personal answerNo, private businesses should decide the amount of competitive incentives they offer to employees instead of a government mandate |
Domestic Policy › Drug Policy
4>4 Personal answerNo: drug use should be regulated to ensure no misuse by those who do not NEED specific drugs/medications for specific medical purposes. Too many of our young people have died, or become criminals & have caused pain & death to innocent people all over the world! |
Domestic Policy › Term Limits
4>4 Personal answerYes, term limits will increase performance and prevent corruption |
Foreign Policy › Mandatory Military Service
4>4 Personal answerYes, but with less focus on military training and more focus on education and skill development |
Domestic Policy › Muslim Surveillance
4>4 Personal answerNo, targeting Muslims is unconstitutional, racist, and incendiary |
Immigration › Immigration
4>4 Personal answerNo, all illegal immigrants should be deported |
Education › Student Loans
4>4 Personal answerCreate a way for corporations and wealthy individuals to DONATE money to aide in our youth to receive affordable educations...eventually they will do more for those corporations down the road! This money should be subsidized by the students learning how to manage school and assisting themselves in earning money simultaneously or interning (free or fee pd). This money is NOT to go to pay more welfare recipients more $$ for not being productive members of society. |
Social › Death Penalty
4>4 Personal answerYes, but only for horrific crimes with undeniable evidence |
Healthcare › Marijuana
4>4 Personal answerYes, but only for medical use |
Social › Confederate Flag
4>4 Personal answerYes, but only at historical monuments where it was originally flown |
Domestic Policy › No-Fly List Gun Control
4>4 Personal answerIf people on the "no-fly list" are criminals or consider dangerous (ergo: the reason they are on that list) then they should not be allowed to purchase any weapons or ammunition (to possibly hand over to others who may already be verified to be criminals/a danger to Americans/others.) |
Social › Government Mandates
4>4 Personal answerNo, it should be covered like any other prescription |
Domestic Policy › NSA Domestic Surveillance
4>4 Personal answerNo, only with a warrant showing probable cause of criminal activity |
Domestic Policy › Gerrymandering
4>4 Personal answerThe NEED for "redrawing congressional district borders" MUST be verified (population increases/decreases, etc) and IF it needs to be done, it must be by a non-partisan commission that does not come from any of those districts. All identifiable "profiling" information must be eliminated from any study to redraw, so there can be no undue influence on decisions. |
Social › Women in Combat
4>4 Personal answerYes. Any man or woman who is physically fit/qualified to do the job they are trained to do AND if any woman OR MAN is not qualified...deny them entry into the military. JUST because the person IS a man does NOT make them qualified to be in combat! |
Immigration › Illegal Immigrant Detainment
4>4 Personal answerYes, all illegal immigrants should be turned over to federal authorities and deported |
Healthcare › Medicaid
4>4 Personal answerYes, but only increase for the elderly and disabled |
Immigration › Border Security
4>4 Personal answerYes, and allow border states to manage their own security policy |
the Environment › Alternative Energy
4>4 Personal answerNO. These industries don't pay taxes on all the profit they make on all the consumers they charge high prices to, for us to access these energy sources. Therefore, these industries are making lots of money on both ends: less expenses required to pay out, more profits paid in. Yet, the consumer is still paying all our taxes (we get very few "credits") THEN we pay whatever the industries tell us to...all the while the rates go UP...so we keep paying and never get a SAVINGS! |
Social › Gender Workplace Diversity
4>4 Personal answerBusinesses should NOT be allowed to DENY any person from being on their BoD if that person is fully qualified and is the best candidate for the position they are applying to fill. STOP filling positions (low or high i n any organization) just because "someone" FEELS the ratio of gender/colour/religious representation/gender orientation/short-hair vs long-hair/blue-eyed vs brown-eyed ETC are "not being represented!" We need qualified, responsible people "in charge." |
Immigration › Immigration Healthcare
4>4 Personal answerNo, and we should deport all illegal immigrants |
Immigration › Immigrant Laborers
4>4 Personal answerNo, fine companies that employ illegal immigrants |
Elections › Voter Fraud
4>4 Personal answerYes |
Domestic Policy › Patriot Act
4>4 Personal answerYes, but limit the scope of the government’s powers |
the Economy › Government Spending
4>4 Personal answerEliminate federal agencies that are redundant & unnecessary; ensure large corporations (multinational and all international) are appropriately taxed; keep a strong military force (defense and offense); stop "lending" money to other countries (especially when it's obvious they will never "repay" that $$ back to us); stop supplying other countries with "welfare" monies when our own American families/individuals (not illegal immigrants) need help; deport ALL illegal immigrants -however: allow immigration through legitimate, legal processes to those with NO criminal backgrounds! |
Foreign Policy › Israel
4>4 Personal answerNo, we should be less involved |
Immigration › Immigrant Assimilation
4>4 Personal answerYes, and remove multilingual translations from government documents and services |
Domestic Policy › Net Neutrality
4>4 Personal answerNo, this would allow them to remove competition, create artificial scarcity, and increase prices |
Social › First Amendment
4>4 Personal answerMuch of the "cryptic" symbols & references on our US American currency came about during our struggles to become a "new nation" during the past 400+ years. People from other countries (with their OWN cryptic symbols & religious references) should not come to the US & attempt to force us to change OUR history/historical belief references just because THEY don't agree with US. This includes Americans who chose to be atheist, agnostic, or of any obscure religion -or none at all. You work here (or collect welfare/unemployment, etc.) & receive US funds & are happy to try every means possible to acquire those funds to spend on the lifestyle you feel you deserve; THEN you want to admonish the majority of citizens for have references you don't like on that same currency! |
Domestic Policy › Gun Liability
4>4 Personal answerNo, manufacturers and dealers should only be held liable for negligence |
Crime › Solitary Confinement for Juveniles
4>4 Personal answerNo, it is necessary for violent criminals who are a danger to themselves and other inmates |

4>4 Personal answerDecrease, and the government should provide more incentives to prepare our citizens for these jobs |
Social › Euthanasia
4>4 Personal answerA couple of the listed choices could be combined: "Yes"...however they should have mental health intervention (prior to a hard decision) so they can air all their feelings/emotions about the choice they are considering AND if it is proven they CANNOT/WILL NOT survive their illness. |
Domestic Policy › Affirmative Action
4>4 Personal answerAffirmative action programs should only be offered to anyone/everyone who needs assistance to become further educated or better trained in any field/profession/career path REGARDLESS of their race/colour/religious affiliation/gender- gender orientation/eye- or hair colour differences, etc...as long as they are Americans or legal immigrants, and are not convicted felons, and no matter their status in life or income! |
the Economy › Labor Unions
4>4 Personal answerHelp, but ban their ability to make political donations |
the Economy › Capital Gains Tax
4>4 Personal answerNo..not for the small investor or individual private homeowners. That could impact the average person's (lower) economical investments for retirement, etc. However, those who "deal" in investments to earn large amounts of profit, should be able to afford larger tax rates to assist our economy stay strong. |
Immigration › In-State Tuition
4>4 Personal answerNo, and all illegal immigrants should be deported |
Education › Common Core
4>4 Personal answerYes, I support a national base standard but allow states and local districts to customize their implementation |

4>4 Personal answerNo...however they need to find a way to develop alternative energy production! |
Foreign Policy › United Nations
4>4 Personal answerYes, and use the U.N. peacekeeping forces to protect our interests |
Healthcare › Obamacare
4>4 Personal answerA lot of this is very confusing. It is good for some people -depending on age and current medical needs, however is NOT practical for all...has too much of a "cookie-cutter" mentality that does not help all citizens equally. Bottom line: if you're an illegal immigrant or on welfare, all your medical is paid for by the rest of us (our taxes); those of us who earn a living (or have spent 25-50+ years working & paying taxes) are now considered "aged out" - or too old & worthless- for insurance to keep us alive: eg: 60 yrs & up, need a lung transplant or other organ? Insurance companies say "no"..those organs should go to younger, healthier citizens...those who can spend the next 25-50 years paying back into insurance premiums. Seniors have been paying into these ins. cos. all their adult lives & have stayed pretty healthy...now that a senior may NEED the medical help to stay healthy & stay alive for more years...they are denied! |
the Environment › Fracking
4>4 Personal answerNo, we should pursue more sustainable energy resources instead |
Domestic Policy › Eminent Domain
4>4 Personal answerNo: not for private projects or private industry use unless landownder is in complete agreement and is well compensated Yes: if in case of national emergency (verified); if landowner is well compensated; project will benefit the community |
Foreign Policy › Torture
4>4 Personal answerYes, allow the use of psychological but not physical tactics |
Foreign Policy › North Korea Military Strikes
4>4 Personal answerFirst use all resources to verify whether or not they have any air-strike capabilities & what they consist of; also try to find out exactly what their long-range PLANS are for any of the potential uses of any nuclear weapon capabilities. More info needed to make any decision. |
Foreign Policy › Foreign Aid
4>4 Personal answerDecrease, until we drastically reduce our national budget deficit |
Foreign Policy › ISIS Ground Troops
4>4 Personal answerYes, but only as a coordinated effort by the United Nations |
Foreign Policy › Drones
4>4 Personal answerYes, the U.S. needs to use all means necessary to combat terrorism |
Domestic Policy › Social Security
4>4 Personal answerNo, however: allow seniors (70+) to earn more money on top of their SS benefits...especially if they need money for increased medical expenses/decent housing & other expenses related to the senior living condition. STOP taking $$ out of SS to pay for other gov't programs! This money is dedicated for SS, not welfare for others. |

Foreign Policy › NSA Surveillance
4>4 Personal answerYes, surveillance of all foreign countries is essential to tracking potential terrorist threats |
Foreign Policy › Cuba
4>4 Personal answerI would really like to know Obama's motivation for his actions. Why now? What's in it for the US? What is going to happen now to all those illegal immigrants that have come over? Are they all now going to receive amnesty, pardons and receive more of out tax dollars and resources on welfare...and bring more of their family members here to be more of a burden to our tax paying citizens? |
the Economy › Farm Subsidies
4>4 Personal answerYes, but only as a temporary measure to stabilize prices |
Foreign Policy › Russian Airstrikes in Syria
4>4 Personal answerNo, we should let the Russians take out ISIS |
