Some issues I'm conservative, libertarian, and liberal. I'm not sure if this makes someone liberal or conservative. I see liberal as relating to progress, whereas conservatives are more interested in preserving the past. I'm very interested in preserving articles, culture.
I believe I am more left leaning, than right leaning however.
On the typical issues:
War-only for necessity
Abortion-IMO Not wanting a child is a perfectly valid reason for having an abortion
Evolution-come on....this is 2015. What kind of ludicrous person believes Jesus rode dinosaurs and further that this should be taught as a legitimate subject in school? LMAO...teach that on your own time.
Separation of church and state is a given and in the constitution
Guns-Own them and enjoy them, but keep them the fck away from me.
Gay marriage- Again this is a given. Their adults, who cares what they do to each other. I don't understand why other people are not allowed the benefits offered in a marriage contract. I think they should be offered to anyone you choose. We should all be able to make contracts with each other.
I'm kind of sick of Republicans telling full grown adult human beings what to do and how to act. No one likes to be scrutinized.
Republican v democrat-Democrats definitely win over Republicans. The Republican party has been hijacked by people who think we should go back to the 19th century. I don't have time for this.
Universal health care- The concept is wonderful and should be something we strive for as a society. Unfortunately the idea causes so much hideous anger in people that I can't imagine it ever working out in this day and age. So hopefully one day in the future we will find a solution that will allow us to have universal health care and still offer private health insurance for those who wish for it.
*I have epilepsy and the idea of not being able to have access to my medication is a scary thought. However, there are plenty of people who have been living with this reality for as long as people have been around. Many of those people have died, many of them can't function in reality, and many of them are not even eligible for medicaid, food stamps, or disability. Obviously there is a flaw in our system that needs to be remedied.
Welfare-only for necessity. I'm kind of tired of seeing people come into my store with food stamps and no job and live more luxuriously than I do. If you are too poor to afford food, why are you buying cigarettes and beer? If you're too poor to afford food, why are you purchasing potato chips and soda? (No they are not cheaper than real food.) Too many undeserving people obtain welfare simply because they crapped out a few kids. Many of them claim to be single with children when they actually live with their significant other and bring in a joint income. I think people need to stop using their kids as an excuse to get food stamps. If you can't take care of your kids, they should be taken away. That should be incentive to get a fcking job. That way, the welfare you're taking from the needy can be given to...the needy.
Drug addiction needs to be eradicated. I'm not convinced that legalizing drugs is going to do the job. Some of these people need a good kick in the ass.
