Georgia Congressional Election 2018 Political Courage Test
| No | In order to balance the budget, do you support an income tax increase on any tax bracket? | ||
| No | In order to balance the budget, do you support reducing defense spending? | ||
| What the economy can produce without getting to far involved in foreign complex situations of the immediate phase, would allow the funding to be organized in such away that the expense would not be had. Such as the Eisenhower administration demonstrated during his watch. I grew up in a non-conflict atmosphere. A strong military is the strongest possible counter measure for national security. I hope this explanation can go forth. | |||
| Yes | Do you support the regulation of indirect campaign contributions from corporations and unions? | ||
| Under the guide lines and principles of not overwhelming the competition in logical proposals. | |||
| Yes | Do you support federal spending as a means of promoting economic growth? | ||
| Yes | Do you support lowering corporate taxes as a means of promoting economic growth? | ||
| FDR did to feed the disenfranchised, my father worked in a CCC camp and sent the money home and was feed. A poor example for what exists, however, we do have street people, homeless people, people living on the margin, and looking toward the future for a more sound living standard, I do believe deep in my heart, they deserve to share in our economic engine as well as the next person. Other advanced industrial nations do have a lower tax base, Corporation have moved to these countries to take advantage of such an opportunity-enough is written for further consideration. | |||
| Yes | Do you support requiring states to adopt federal education standards? | ||
| An existing standard would allow such states to arise to the occasion, not only for the regular student base, but for the federal employee who are required to move at the digression of the Federal Government, I am a case in point in the past. | |||
| Yes | Do you support government funding for the development of renewable energy (e.g. solar, wind, thermal)? | ||
| No | Do you support the federal regulation of greenhouse gas emissions? | ||
| The federal governments funding would allow such projects ahead start, which would be deeply appreciated for the development of technology that now in practice, the wide band internet for the less developed parts of the county, the students have to go to a business to complete their homework. Sounds familiar where the access to roads in a military report said the citizens seems less informed with poor roads, the same goes for rural electrification in the 1930's. Just a comparison. It should be monitored and regulated through self-regulation and adapted to new technology through local or state law. | |||
| No | Do you generally support gun-control legislation? | ||
| Of course, where indiscriminate killing of citizens come to confront the media only to be repeated, their are things that can be done to limit the duplication of the slaughter of innocent persons. | |||
| No | Do you support repealing the 2010 Affordable Care Act ("Obamacare")? | ||
| Health care in the long run, can add years to life, ACA was a major step in a ages long battle for longer life, lifes experiences allow for the advances in civilization. A view point that should not be overlooked. | |||
| No | Do you support the legalization of marijuana for recreational purposes? | ||
| The weed should not be part of our culture, to alter ones thought process for recreation, as written, from experience, it slows down the process for future gains in logic and reality. I could go on. | |||
| Yes | Should the United States use military force in order to prevent governments hostile to the U.S. from possessing a nuclear weapon? | ||
| Yes | Do you support increased American intervention in Middle Eastern conflicts beyond air support? | ||
| Through negotiations, so the military would certainly be on standby as a deterant, not unforeseen battle. Civilization would depend on the history being made at the time of processing such events. I as a peaceful matter as possible. Never overlooking the possibility of over intervention by the industrial military complex. There is not fun for the troops to be met by conflict. The negotiators should always have the upper hand to lead to peaceful and firm way of doing things. | |||
| Keeping the business, industry, agriculture and homes on standard with the potential for future improvement or moving into a better location. This would be by marketing. Should the federal budget be included in the process, at least discussed in committee. Funding implementations would include national defense, if conflicts can be avoided, side step or even negotiated, not only injuries would be avoided, (medical expenses) but the loss of equipment. Funding from the Federal government would project and projected goals that would allow citizens to live at a higher standard. My opinion is precious to me, count me in. |
