A>A Personal answerDon't really care either way, people can smoke if they want but ban it from the workplace. Businesses don't need employees that are too baked to work properly or efficiently. |
Social › Confederate Flag
A>A Personal answerIt's a historical symbol. The decision is best left to each state as to what that symbol means but at the same time, the history of such a symbol should be taught. Personally, it's a symbol of rebellion to preserve slavery, not for states' rights. |

Healthcare › Medicaid
A>A Personal answerNo |
Domestic Policy › Social Media Regulation
A>A Personal answerNo. The federal government is using Big Tech to circumvent its constitutional limitations. The Twitter Files proved that the federal government partnered with social media sites and other major businesses to violate free speech. |
Science › Mandatory Vaccinations
A>A Personal answerRegardless, this should be decided at the state level |
Immigration › Border Security
A>A Personal answerYes, and allow border states to manage their own security policy |

Foreign Policy › India Arms
A>A Personal answerNo, this will start a global arms race |
Domestic Policy › Edward Snowden
A>A Personal answerNo, not after he disclosed the information he found to the country's enemies in exchange for asylum. If he was a true patriot, he would've sought means to disclose the information he gathered to domestic journalists and brought the NSA's misdeeds to light that way, along with facing the consequences that came with it.
