Abortion Not in Favour, but legalize it\keep it legal with restrictions Affirmative Action Generally Oppose Artwork Funding Generally Oppose Assault Weapons Ban Why do you need them Campaign Finance Reform Left Capital Punishment Left Concealed Carry Depends on the case D.C. Statehood Don't really care.. should get at least a congressional rep though
Defense Funding For the United States, Left: Your countries defense spending (or rather the system of patronage through it) is a very good way of saving congressional careers. Iraq shows that you may have most technological and expensive army in the world but if the other side is more commited...
Environment Depend on what Left and Right mean in this case; But generally I'd see myself on the "I can't believe we're so goddamn lazy, we're going to be screwed in 50 years time" side of the issue. Euthanasia Left Faith Based Initiatives More Detail; not something I'm hugely against. Despite breaking seperation of Church and State Farm Subsidies Opposed for Agri-businesses. For Small scale farmers on the other hand it's probably an undesirable but necessary insurance Flag Burning Amendment Left Gay Adoption Left Gay Marriage Left Medicare/Medicaid Need more details on the US health Care system.. but given the size of the US I suspect it is something best not left to the Federal goverment. Rather individual states Minimum Wage Depends, but generally Centre-left I suppose
School Vouchers Ideally this would not be necessary either, having a privatly run education is in many ways not really better than a public one, especially when considers the religious factor which runs through this in the United States. Such is the problem of the Left-Libertarian, but at Present I'd support though Schools should never, ever be run like businesses. EVER Racial Profiling Explain
United Nations Better than Nothing. But is in bad need of reform. For a start, the permanent members of the SC should have their veto power reduced or removed. Or at least that would be ideal, can't see any of them being very happy about it though. And then there is the financial corruption. But comparsions to the League of Nations are false. Support, and the US should most certainly should remain a member and end Unilateralism
War on Iraq Again it's a matter of ideals vs Pragmatism, Ideally the war should never have started and the US can end it right now, but that's even more of an evil then the war already. The US has made nowhere near the level of progress that should have been expected. The Surge was pitiful. But can't leave until Iraqi goverment is at least somewhat stable (and not allied with Moqtaba Al-Sadr's nuts.)
