1. Abortion is a woman's unrestricted right |
Abortion should be decided by a woman herself. It is an important part of their health rights and reproductive freedom.
|
2. Stricter punishment reduces crime |
This question is not counted in the answers for any candidate.
|
3. Marijuana is a gateway drug |
|
4. Higher taxes on the wealthy |
A Flat Tax is a good idea. It would simplify the entire tax system and get rid of loopholes that drive tax-avoiding behaviors.
|
5. Stimulus better than market-led recovery |
The federal government should intervene in the economy and inject as much funding as needed to recover from the Great Recession, including direct federal job creation.
|
6. Vouchers for school choice |
It is ok to continue experimenting with charter schools, and with public school choice, but only as a limited experiment, and no vouchers.
|
7. Make voter registration easier |
Voter ID laws just make it harder for people to vote, but what we should do is to make voting easier.

|
10. Expand the military |
This question is not counted in the answers for any candidate.
|
11. Support & expand free trade |
We should restrict trade with any country which costs us jobs or which creates a trade deficit. And International trade just ships jobs overseas.

|
13. Absolute right to gun ownership |
This question is not counted in the answers for any candidate.

|
16. EPA regulations are too restrictive |
This question is not counted in the answers for any candidate.

Church-state separation precludes the involvement of religious institutions in social services. Basically, we should not violate the Constitutional principle in this case.
|
18. Legally require hiring more women & minorities |
Past discrimination should be corrected. Government should enforce Affirmative Action laws in companies.
|
19. Comfortable with same-sex marriage |
Homosexuals are equal with any other members of society. We should acknowledge the legitimacy of homosexual partners, but civil unions are preferable to using the term "marriage".
|
20. Privatize Social Security |
Government should control the Social Security forever. The Trust Fund should not be invested in anything with risk.
