Answer 1

I think many of your ideas are WONDERFUL accept that I don't like legalizing drugs that's a very liberal idea and liberalism is the reason are country is in the bad condition it is in in so many places in are country.

Answer 2

* Shut down all foreign military bases. = Foolish we have national Interest in many of the places we are

* Use aircraft carrier task forces to monitor hot spots.= We do this now

* Use CIA agents to work with other countries to fight terrorism= Again we do this now

* Use special forces to hunt down and kill terrorists quietly.= And again we do this now

* Cut off ALL foreign aid / use private donations instead.= It will never work and people will die. What ever happened to the fact that Conservatives are suppose to be Christian? Youa re your brother's keeper

* Flat tax so that everybody pays an equal share= Agree with this one

* English is the national language. LEARN IT.= We have never before had a national language. most people in America do speak English so this is not needed

* Enforce CURRENT immigration laws.= Fine, when can we put the Walton family behind bars for hiring illegal at Wal Mart. Or all those rich folks across the country that have them mowing their lawns

Deport all illegals. = Just not a practical solution

* Change the law so that being born here doesn't = citizenship= So I would not be a citizen even though I was born here? No one born here would be a citizen? Then how do we become citizens? Wow under this I suppose you are not a citizen.

* Build the border fence congress signed off on last October+ Berlin Wall wow taking lessons from the USSR wow

* Legalize drugs and save taxpayers over $65 billion a year
(doing drugs is a personal choice like drinking or smoking)= I agree with this one

* Limit welfare to 5 years & make it conditional on job training= All ready been done in most of the country, do you want to include all those farmers getting their subsidies as well?

* Privatize social security (I can save for my own retirement) = Nope sorry we have to look out for the less fortunate

* Congressional term limits.= All ready have they are called elections. There is a reason the founders did not put term limits in the Constitution

Answer 3

* Shut down all foreign military bases.
ISOLATIONISM WAS DEFEATED IN 1945. IT’S SIMPLY NOT REALISTIC.

* Use aircraft carrier task forces to monitor hot spots.
WHAT ARE HOT SPOTS AND WHY DO WE NEED TO MONITOR THEM?


* Use CIA agents to work with other countries to fight terrorism
SURE YOU’RE NOT GIVING CIA AGETS A LITLE TOO MUCH CREDIT?


* Use special forces to hunt down and kill terrorists quietly.
WE SHOULD’VE BEEN DOIN THIS ALL A LONG.

* Cut off ALL foreign aid / use private donations instead.
SEE ANSWER #1.

* Flat tax so that everybody pays an equal share
DEFINE 'FLAT TAX'.

* English is the national language. LEARN IT.
WHY?

* Enforce CURRENT immigration laws. Deport all illegals.
NO AND NO.

* Change the law so that being born here doesn't = citizenship
STUPID.

* Build the border fence congress signed off on last October
BETTER YET BUILD A RIVER OF FIRE! AND A ROBOT ARMY TO HUNT DOWN IMMIGRANTS! (SARCASM)

* Legalize drugs and save taxpayers over $65 billion a year
(doing drugs is a personal choice like drinking or smoking)

I’M WITH YOU THERE. AND EVEN TAX THE HELL OUT OF THEM TOO!

* Limit welfare to 5 years & make it conditional on job training
GREAT, WHO PROVIDES THE JOB TRAINING?

* Privatize social security (I can save for my own retirement)
SOCIAL SECURITY ISN’T A RETIREMENT PLAN, IT’S AN INSURANCE PLAN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY BUYS INTO. WHAT YOU’RE SUGGESTING WOULD FLOOD THE MARKET WITH CURRENCY AND CREATE MASSIVE INFLATION.

* Congressional term limits.
SURE THING.

REMIND ME NOT TO VOTE FOR YOU, EVER.

Answer 4

Build the border fence congress signed off on last October

but if you hurt someone in your usage then you face a min 10-15 year sentence)
* Limit welfare to 5 years & make it conditional on job training
all the above yes
the rest No

Answer 5

Shutting down all military bases around the world, that's impossible, and just not a good idea.Working with other countries to keep terrorism to a minimum, is a good idea.Making English the primary language, works if you live in the U.S..As for cutting off all foreign aide, that's an absurd idea. We would be isolating ourselves from the rest of the world, that would NOT be a good thing.Where your born should be where you have citizenship, because you have to it somewhere, otherwise you wouldn't have to answer to the law.The rest is ok.

Answer 6

Wow, so many questions:

Close bases: No, but strategically relocate?
Carriers: Yes
CIA and Special Forces: Yes and allow torture

Aid? Limited based on need and free societies
Flat tax: At least a part!
English? Si

Amnesty only with very stringent qualificaitons!

Born = not, how our founders would have wanted it.
Border fence won't help.

Drugs, they'd just tax the living zhit out of em anyway.
Welfare for jobs absolutely.

Social Security, only part of it privatized. I can save and invest as well, however, zhit happens...it needs to be structured to increase current returns.

TermLimits...HateemHatem.

Thank you for asking.

Answer 7

I agree with you except on two points. First we do not have the means or funds to deport all illegals. Amnesty makes since in one aspect. We will have a national registry and they would be required to pay taxes. Those no registering should be considered an enemy of the state. Send then to Gitmo.
To privatize SS would only hurt the aging and disabled. If the money was not taken out of their checks most of the poor will not put it into SS themselves. The government needs to repay the money that has been diverted from SS by pork laws. That was the only good idea Clinton had.

Answer 8

lets see, I am good with everything except changing the constitution for naturalized citizens (unless you mean ALL americans have to earn their citizenship...THEN we would be talking!) I believe that welfare is already capped out at five non consecutive years, with job training available (clinton's welfare reform act), deporting all illegals (how would you fund that?), flat tax that taxes goods and services, not income would be great...just close the loopholes. Also, address fair trade, NO border fence, looks ridiculous and is reminiscent of Berlin (sorry, but Reagan worked so hard to get that wall torn down, I think it is laughable that 20 years later we are building our own version...) everyting else, FANTASTIC!

Answer 9

I'm in except for the legalizing drug part. We have to have some standards. All liberties are not necessarily good. We should probably however drop the whole war on drugs thing and let people do what they're gonna do but not make it legal. Leave drug enforcement up to the states. Closing the borders would severely limit trafficking.

Ron Paul supporter?

Answer 10

The only thing I would disagree with is privatizing social security. I do think we have social responsibility to the elderly. Especially if they have existed paycheck to paycheck and have no way to save for their own retirement.
Otherwise, if you want to privitize it, make it mandatory for employers to contribute a percentage based on tenure without strict vesting schedules.
Also, why would you shut down foreign military bases?

Answer 11

No, really expensive, doing that, trying to do that, No, hurts the poor, Ok, Yes, Yes, No, Saves alot more than 65 billion, already limited, No, Not sure.
