9>9 Personal answerNo, this would encourage drug use and lower funding for rehabilitation centers |
the Economy › Universal Basic Income
9>9 Personal answerAnother good concept that would not be executable without drastic issues. Money is to the rich what guns are to gun owners.

9>9 Personal answerGood in concept, but unaffordable despite the name.

9>9 Personal answerI think before I can come up with a conclusion, it needs to be regulated. There's no reason why, at the current rate of spending, our military needs to be struggling with VERY outdated equipment/technology, waiting years for any upgrades - if at all, and suffering with barely useable, half broken equipment. There's also some sectors that are significantly over-funded while others are significantly under-funded. Reform, regulate, and then reevaluate. |
Crime › Collective Bargaining
9>9 Personal answerNo |
Foreign Policy › Gaza ceasefire
9>9 Personal answerNo |
the Environment › Animal Testing

9>9 Personal answerNo, and make it a criminal offense |

9>9 Personal answerYes, but not at the expense of funding public schools |
the Economy › Estate Tax
9>9 Personal answerNo, I am satisfied with the current rate |

9>9 Personal answerYes, we must use whatever means necessary to prevent another terrorist attack |
the Environment › Paris Climate Agreement
9>9 Personal answerYes, until other countries are held to the same standards |
the Economy › Tech Monopolies
9>9 Personal answerRegulate them, particularly in regard to ethics, fairness, and to some degree freedom of speech. Some of the stuff that's allowed on one end of the spectrum is heinous compared to the severe censorship that's occurring on the other end. |
Healthcare › Medical Consensus
9>9 Personal answerNo, but the doctors should be required to disclose that the advice contradicts contemporary scientific consensus |
National Security › Foreign Assassination
9>9 Personal answerYes, but only if there is undeniable evidence they are planning to attack our country |
Science › Space Exploration
9>9 Personal answerYes, and drastically increase NASA’s current budget |
Foreign Policy › NATO
9>9 Personal answerYes, and refusing to defend other NATO countries sets a dangerous precedent for the balance of global power |
the Economy › China Tariffs
9>9 Personal answerYes, China should be punished for artificially manipulating their currency |
National Security › Mexican Drug Cartels
9>9 Personal answerYes, but only for operations within our country’s borders |
Foreign Policy › Netanyahu Leadership
9>9 Personal answerYes |
Domestic Policy › Political Advertising on Social Media
9>9 Personal answerYes |
the Economy › Offshore Banking
9>9 Personal answerNo, too many wealthy citizens are abusing loopholes in offshore banking laws to evade taxes |

Foreign Policy › AI Warfare Ethics
9>9 Personal answerNo |
Foreign Policy › Jerusalem
9>9 Personal answerYes, foreign governments should recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel |
Education › School Truancy
9>9 Personal answerI think this is circumstantial, there's too many factors to make it a black-and-white issue. There's no explicit yes or no for that reason. A child (or parents) should not be punished for something that is extenuating circumstances. A child playing hookey regularly for fun, however, should be punished (them or their parents, depending on age). There's a lot of children who are just not taken care of by parents, and the parents need to be handled accordingly. The same goes for delinquent minors, teens are quite competent, albeit bad at rational decision making. They should be held responsible for their behavior |
the Environment › Corporate Subsidies
9>9 Personal answerYes, but only if local citizens can vote on the amount of incentives to offer |
Foreign Policy › Two State Solution for Israel and Palestine
9>9 Personal answerYes |
Foreign Policy › Saudi Arabia and Iran
9>9 Personal answerNo, we should not get involved in foreign conflicts |
Foreign Policy › F-35
9>9 Personal answerNo |
the Environment › EV Subsidies
9>9 Personal answerI am already skeptical of electric vehicles, I feel like the government encouraging people to buy them is reinforcing that skepticism as well. Especially when it's been shown to us already that they can manipulate the vehicle from anywhere at any time. |
Housing › High density residential buildings
9>9 Personal answerMixing it up is best, some areas do not benefit from high density, while other rapidly population-growing cities with limited ability to physically grow would benefit from it. |
the Economy › Decentralized Finance
9>9 Personal answerI don't want to say yes or no, because I don't understand it. |
Domestic Policy › Air Force One
9>9 Personal answerYes |
