You are clearly republican with some variations. I suspect you will always vote republican.
My problem with your view is that it is inherently accepting of the failure of our system. For example, the Market based health care system we have today is pretty much a failure. we need to change it. No questions about it. I personally think the best method is an extension of medicare to everyone which means a single payer system.
The problem I have with your "abortion" stance is that it is a religious stance. Not a life and death issue.
universal wage? Interesting, I would have to see what it entails to have an opinion on that, but social security, medicare, food stamps has been good for this country. It has prevented massive poverty in this country and to eliminate those programs harms the economy and the US.
I am sorry, but regulations are necessary. Corporations are inherently corrupt.
Vouchers system is part of what is degrading our education system. The more it comes under private control, the more they will shortcut the students and degrade education in this country. It is and will continue our country's race to the bottom.
I do support bailouts in special cases, but there should be a much larger cost to the stockholders and executives of those businesses. After all, the stockholders re the one that voted in an incompetent board and should pay for the results of their management.
Corporations should pay taxes on their earnings. Non american corporations should not be allowed to perform government contracts. Taxes need to include all earnings regardless of where the earnings lie. There isn't any problem with a tax credit for taxes paid in the country of earnings, but taxes should include all earnings of US corporations.
Gay marriage is a right. I keep in mind that our constitution is pretty clear. The right to pursue happiness. We don't have to agree with it, but it is a right constitutionally.
Gun control I support because we have proven records that show that it works. Perfect example is Australia.
Subsidies can be a good thing. Sometimes when we are ready to move in our society and there is an initial heavy investment cost. (example might be building "electric pumps" to make electric cars more viable). etc But once that initial investment is completed and the industry has moved forward subsidies should be stopped. Perfect example is the oil subsidies.
