What is your personal opinion of Mike Naso?

Mr. Naso is inherantly good intentioned but was a bit too naive for the job. He did the right thing by resigning.

Which issues would you be most likely to vote against your party on?

I will oppose any unnecessary tax raises. Also, I will protect the right to bear arms. And here's a shocker...I am putting MasterJedi for second preference. Faced with a moderate conservative and a hardcore socialist I prefer the former. Partisanship is hurting us.

What is your opinion of the present Southeast crisis?

If elected to the Senate, what will your actions be on the number of issues raised?

1. I urge StatesRights and Jake to obey the Constitution and stop this nonsennse immediately.

2. I will not vote over partisan lines since they take demo out of democracy. As I have said earlier, I am putting MasterJedi for my second choice.

To all candidates: what do you think about social security and taxes?

Me: Social security should have an opt out option. If people do not want to pay social secuirty taxes they have that right. As for taxes, they should be lower for small businesses and low-ncome individuals. I support the gradual abolition of corporate handouts. It is not just that ordinary people stretch themselves to the brink while multi-billionaires lavish themselves in free money. More should be spent on renewing this district that has been embattled by years of decay.

Environmental Issues

The envirnment should be a top priority for all levels of government. It is possible and absolutely necessary that the government, businesses and the people work together. I will work for tax benefits for homeowners who, for example, use solar panels and purchase hybrid cars. Carpooling should be encouraged however that is a local issue. We should also develop renewable energy resources and give tax benefits to corporations who do so. I oppose any new oil drilling on protected lands like ANWR. Our district, which has seen decades of economic decay, will need new energy solutions to renew the economy.

Abortion
Abortion is a woman's right and I oppose any restrictions in the first two trimesters. If a woman decides to abort in the third trimester the the fetus must be considered as a prenatal birth.

Farm Subsidies

Is it not true that, as Atlasia continues its urbanization that politicians are ignoring rural issues? We need to support our farmers by thinking outside the box, for example by exploring new markets abroad. However we do have to recognize how farmers in third-world countries are suffering because they simply cannot compete with heavily subsidized producers like in Atlasia. It should be an important part of our foreign policy too.


This brings us to our next question: What do you think about Atlasia's foreign policy?

I would like to ask Mr. Hobbes his reason for carpetbagging.
