My political ideology
I align with a moderate liberal perspective, blending individual responsibility with strong community values. I believe in the intrinsic equality of all people, created by God, and that our diversity is America’s greatest strength. The principles of compassion and humanity are central to my views on governance and society.
Economy and Government Responsibility
I support a balanced approach to economics that combines a free-market system with a fair tax structure. While I favor less regulation, I believe that the wealthiest should contribute more to support essential social services. I advocate for lower overall income taxes to allow working individuals to retain more of their hard-earned income, while supporting the government’s role in making education and healthcare affordable for everyone. These are fundamental rights, critical to individual and societal success.
Social Issues and Equal Opportunity
In terms of social policies, I believe in "live and let live." I support the right to marry whom you choose but do not think the government should actively promote these choices, particularly in educational settings. I hold that equal opportunity should be based on merit without quotas based on race or gender. Additionally, I am not in favor of policies allowing transgender individuals to compete in women’s sports. I believe gender is biologically binary, as intended by nature.
While I believe in a woman’s right to choose, I am not supportive of later-term abortions except when the woman’s life is at risk or in cases of rape. For early-term cases, I support access to abortion services. Additionally, I advocate for assistance programs for pregnant women and mothers earning minimum wage to support their health and well-being.
National Interests and Foreign Policy
I firmly believe in an "America First" approach, prioritizing national interests without engaging in conflicts abroad. The U.S. should refrain from participating in new Cold Wars or in conflicts like those between Ukraine and Russia, or Israel and Palestine. I do not support military alliances, such as NATO, or the pursuit of nuclear arms races at the cost of global peace and financial stability. Instead, these resources should be redirected toward welfare programs and infrastructural development, creating a stronger, more sustainable future at home.
Infrastructure and Economic Growth
America’s infrastructure, in many respects, lags behind that of other well-developed nations, particularly in Europe. Infrastructure is fundamental to a booming economy, and investing in it would fuel growth, improve quality of life, and ensure our global competitiveness. This is an area where the government’s role is crucial, and we need to direct resources to modernize our roads, transit systems, and utilities.
Immigration
I view immigration as a core component of America’s foundation and support legal immigration that prioritizes skilled talent and humanitarian needs. I advocate for stronger borders and a fair, just immigration system that welcomes deserving individuals while avoiding green card lotteries. This approach ensures that our nation benefits from diverse talent and contributes to our ongoing success.
Policing and Criminal Justice
I support stricter policing, backed by a just and impartial legal system. This approach ensures that communities are safe while upholding the principles of justice and fairness.
Strengthening Institutions
I am a proponent of strong, enduring institutions. The government should operate seamlessly, regardless of the party in power. While I believe a president should have control over monetary and foreign policy, other institutions should remain consistent and resilient, contributing to stability and continuity.
