  I generally support reducing government spending by addressing inefficiency, which I estimate accounts for up to half of the federal budget. I believe that reducing federal spending by eliminating inefficient waste can be achieved without sacrificing services.

  This approach is problematic and can actually worsen inflation. Historical examples, such as the hyperinflation that followed Nixon's price controls in the 1970s, prove this disastrous point. Instead, we should enforce capitalist laws against monopolistic and predatory practices that harm our free economy by suppressing competition. We must also reengineer our tax code and eliminate unfair carve-outs for lobbied special interests. The tax code needs to be simple so that it can be understood by all.

  I don't think the federal government should get involved in real estate, as “all real estate is local.” In general, government intervention in private markets should be minimized.

  Personally, I'd like to see as few abortions as possible, but I recognize there must be reasonable exceptions such as rape, incest, and the health of the mother. I also understand that the United States Supreme Court has ruled that a woman's right to abortion is determined by state law. While I have some personal questions, I understand that the state of New Hampshire has given women the right to abortion up to 23 weeks, and I'll follow the law.

  We obviously need a means of removing dangerous, undocumented immigrants, but not in an illegal, unconstitutional manner. Recent high-visibility incidents have portrayed ICE throughout the world as a Gestapo-type force that shoots citizens in the face and back, yet they're protected with government immunity. Their mission would be better served by rolling into another, more mature federal law enforcement agency.

  Many states allow very broad voting before election day, and the federal government has no constitutional authority to prohibit these state rights. Personally, I believe America should encourage greater voter participation. Most Americans work, and many feel even busier because they are also raising children. If we can only provide a limited 8-hour daytime voting window, we should offer alternatives, such as mail-in or drop-off voting. The more Americans who vote, the stronger our republic.

  Absolutely. We need to get the professional corruption out of our government and the average citizen back in. Under our present system, once a politician gets it, it's too easy to use the government purse to stay in power. I am in favor of the same term limits for Senators and Representatives as for the President, two terms.

  In the interest of returning our government to where our founders intended, with the people, we must absolutely get the corrupting money out of politics. I would even go further and say that a politician should not be allowed to take money from outside his/her constituency. Dark money, black money, gray money, foreign money – it should all be removed. It's time our government represented the people again, not the money.

  It is important to recognize that Social Security is funded by individual contributions, not as an entitlement program. It is only right that if you are an American citizen who has paid in, you should be able to draw out. We need to support and sustain social security.

  To prevent insolvency, Social Security should be reengineered by allowing up to 50% of the funds to be held in a separate account with quarterly statements, which can be invested in less-risky diversified index funds. This would be good for both the stock and bond markets. Regarding the increased risk, if these markets completely collapse, the government would probably collapse too, tanking Social Security with it.

  Although I'm reluctant, I support this measure. If we don't start doing something, Social Security will become insolvent sooner rather than later.

  However, there are significant challenges regarding the affordability of medical care in the United States. Our system is broken. While countries like Israel provide universal, cost-effective medical care for an average of $4,000 per citizen per year (insuring every citizen, $4,000/citizen!), our government itself spends $6,000 per citizen but only insures a fraction of them. Private insurance adds another $6,000 per citizen. And we still don’t insure all citizens. So while Israel is giving excellent care while insuring every citizen at $4,000/citizen, we are spending 3 times that, $12,000/citizen, and not even insuring all citizens. This indicates a need to pursue a more efficient healthcare solution. I am in favor of exploring a basic, inexpensive medical plan for all, nothing fancy, no lung transplants, but just basic preventive or emergency care. If you want more, you buy a supplemental plan on your own. Any such plan must incorporate extensive competition to ensure efficiency.

  But it is obvious that our present medical insurance situation is failing the majority of our citizens. To put it bluntly, the entire system is broken – hurting both the government and private insurance companies. The government's Obamacare, for example, allows a 15% profit on underwriting, whereas a normal underwriting fee would be 4%. Likewise, private insurance allows insurers to practice medicine – their job is to process claims, not create an inefficient, bureaucratic system to deny claims, and run the administrative costs up by 30% in the process.

  We need to take a very broad and balanced look at all federal lands, but it should be noted that we presently have oil but need water (out west). We should concentrate on this pressing need. It affects agricultural produce throughout America.

  But I do think we should not impede their deployment, and I do believe we should build out the infrastructure (charging) for the inevitable. Further, America had a leading position in this new technology, but for political reasons, our current leadership feels compelled to kill this lead.

  Methane gas is 80 times more of a contributing factor to global warming than carbon dioxide, so I feel it's statistically pointless to deal with CO2 emissions. Global warming is indeed a problem. As one example, our New England lobsters are migrating north out of our fishing jurisdiction.

  We need to build ships to remain competitive in the world economy. Presently, we only build from three to five oceangoing commercial vessels annually. This places us far behind global leaders like China, Japan, and South Korea, which collectively build over a thousand large commercial ships per year. South Korea wants to start building ships at the Philadelphia Shipyard. This would provide well-paying jobs and technology know-how.

  Iran did not present a clear and present danger to America. Further, Iran's younger, more liberal generation was gradually challenging the older, extremist regime. U.S. intervention halted this progress and strengthened the extremists with vast new monetary resources. The president's ill-conceived and poorly executed Iran War ruined the world economy and likewise ruined our standing in the world. This is the second time in my life that Iran has owned and humiliated a weak and incompetent president. I support the constitution and its placing of war authorization in the hands of the people's congress and not with the emotional whims of one man.
