Question by : What do you consider my political views?
- I think gay marriage should be LEGAL, although I feel gays have a right to be happy as well(Gay marriage can also boost a states economy), I am also not for a “gay-centric” society, I think we should accept them as regular people and lovers just like us, although not get “politically correct” about it.
- I 100% support the legalization of marijuana, another economy booster(every small boost helps).
- I think the drinking age should be lowered to 18, if you are old enough to fight a war, you are old enough to drink, IF you want.
- I support the repeal of gun bans in ALL 50 states, the constitution says everybody has the RIGHT to bear arms. I also feel the crime rate will drop(criminals will ALWAYS have guns, only NON-criminals can legally get a gun).
- I support the death penalty in ALL 50 states. If you take a life, you do not deserve to live among the rest. Also saves tax payers a bunch of money that we pay for dirtbags each year
- I think we should only fight wars that we drastically need(World War 1/World War 2) and I AM in favor of a military draft if man-power was needed in a World War 3 like event. Although I do agree with the War in Afghanistan, being a New Yorker, I knew way too many people who died young in those towers. Terror is something very real and something we need to put a cap on to prevent it from coming to us and another 9/11 EVER happening again.
- I feel there should be free-trade with EVERY country, there should be no “protection” on it. It should be open 100%. I also feel “travel bans” should be taken out of effect, especially the “limited” one with Cuba.
- I feel we should be able to cut in every organization, including the DOD, we spend about 100x as much as the 2nd country(China), a few billion will not hurt.
- I am for drug testing in the welfare and social security systems. If you test positive you should not be accepted for the government program for AT LEAST another 5-10 years and then if you REALLY REALLY need it, another drug test and if you pass it, random drug tests should applied.
- I am TOTALLY against the banning of any type of religion(Such as banning Christmas trees, slogans, etc). We need to respect everyones race, religion, gender, sexuality and creed. This is America.
- I think we should make gym at least twice a week, a requirement for every student from Pre K – High School. We should also induct them in mandatory health classes and focus on how to keep the body healthy. Vending machines should also be banned in schools. This will help America’s obesity issue.
- I am 100% against illegal immigration and so-called “anchor babies”, if the parents are deported the kids should be too. We have enough issues in this country then to worry about people who did not come here legally. I AM for building a “super-fence” on the Mexican-American border and I feel large amounts of National Guard troops from each border state should be guarding it along with the Border Patrol agents. I am also for “limited” legal immigration until the economy gets back into full swing, we already are jammed as a country, it is not helping to keep accepting more and more people, illegal or legal.
- I am 100% against Government run health-care, anything the government runs turns into a huge mess, it may work in other countries but it will not with our country. I am for “privatizing” health care, allowing consumers to purchase AND choose the company that fits them best.
- I also should be given courses in Religion in schools. Learning about religion is always good and expands the mind, not like a “Catholic” or Jewish school, but just a non-biased teacher teaching about the many different religions and beliefs in the world. It will allow children to choose what THEY want as they get older, not just what “science” or their parents tell them.
- The pledge should be mandatory in ALL schools(private or public) and said every morning.
- Affirmative Action should be illegal and never used again. I believe it PROMOTES racism, as the employed is looking at the persons skin color rather then the qualities about them. It’s 2012 now, its about time we all moved on.
- I feel the same way about college scholarships, this needs to be MADE illegal as well. Scholarships should be given to people based on financial issues(regardless of race/religion) and how well they did in High School. One must EARN it.
