    I’m asked about this a lot on this site lol

    I agree that the government should reign in its spending - although I disagree with the typical conservative in where and how. For example, I believe that NASA should move exclusively to fixed prices contracts. In fact, it has worked well enough that I believe the military should work that way too

    I believe that typical liberals jump too quickly at new technology. For example, I think democrats are really putting the cart before the horse with electric cars. I believe that we should mandate electrical charging infrastructure to match or exceed ICE “charging” stations BEFORE electric cars are mandated. I also believe that there may be a better technology and/or method than semi-permanently mounted high voltage car batteries. In fact, eliminating cars in general may be the best method after all.

    I am against bicycle infrastructure over car infrastructure. I think bicycle infrastructure is worse for the majority, especially in area with colder winters. I believe a subway system is the way to go. I also believe that it’s not okay to start deteriorating car infrastructure before an alternative is in place.

    I believe (generally) I’m a capitalist society. I believe that, if regulated to INCREASE (or preserve) competition, that the problem will take care of itself. I don’t believe in too big to fail (sorry Boeing, sorry car companies, sorry banks)

    I believe that we need to clamp down on illegal immigration but that we should increase the number of people so that we can properly vet more people for LEGAL immigration

    I believe I should be able to own any gun I want so long as I am able to pass a stringent background check. More controversial is that I believe that every gun owner should be in a federal database and that if you are ever caught doing anything unsafe with firearms, you will never be able to pass the background check again.

    I am extremely anti-marijuana. I am open to research, but I believe it should be illegal until it is proven to be safe

    I believe that we should be able to disagree and that the whole “team” aspect of politics is stupid. We should be able to vote on someone based on their platform and NOT their party (im looking at you, Texas. I’m also looking at you, vote blue no matter who). I think political parties are stupid.
