Abortion - let the woman do what ever she want, let her deal with herself in the later course of her life. No one else's business.
Budget/Economy - government should help failing businesses, the country will prosper when everyone have a job.
Civil Rights - we all bleed, we all die, we should all have the SAME rights.
Crime - what ART said, the punishment system need to be adjusted too
Defense - spend less on defense, we already have the mightiest military in the world, no one would want to mess with us.
Drugs - legalize MJ, tax the hell out of it. tougher crack down on cocaine, heroine (sp?) and other narcotics.
Education - more government funding for public schools, stricter regulations and penalty for juveniles. they should learn that school is a differentl place than the street, and act accordingly.
Environment - for every one tree being cut down, ten others should be planted in it's place.
Families & Gay Marriage - let two consenting adults do what ever they want as long as they harm no one.
Foreign Policy - should be sought through peaceful diplomacy
Free Trade - the more the better
Govt. Reform - not sure how this can be done...
Gun Control - people need to be more educated about the lethality of guns, and also enforce the already existing gun control laws
Health Care - should be low cost and available for everyone, if it required government intervention, then so be it.
Immigration - I'm all for it, just as long as they come here with legal paper, learn some english too.
School Choice - when public schools improve, there is no need for students to choose private school.
Social Security - people worked hard to EARN this, never tamper with it!
Tax Reform - take away the loop holes, tax break on the working class, especially ones with large family.
Technology - can only advance and improve, it's a must!
War & Peace - work to achieve peace through diplomacy. War should be the last resort when all other possible methods have failed.
Welfare - government handouts, I frown on this very much, but I do acknowledge the good that it did, even though its very little.
Disclaimer: my stance on the above issues are subjected to change any time as I am still learning about them.
