Do you agree:
- the government may not operate beyond what the Constitution clearly grants & empowers?
- short of actual declared war, government should spend no more than tax revenue?
- currency should be commodity-backed (gold preferably)?
- direct federal taxation of citizens should be repealed?
- human life, including right of continued existence, begins at conception; the "choice" is to create human life, not end it?
- short of adjudicated felons & mental defect, ownership of weapons in defense of self/family/state shall not be restricted?
- short of conspiracy to commit non-victimless crime, contracts are binding and upheld, if needed, by the state?
- capitalism is, on the whole, superior to all other socioeconomic systems?
- insofar as capitalism isn't perfect, government should only interfere (minimally at that) to resolve chronic systemic problems?
- voter identification is a valid administrative process (ensuring only you vote as you, and you are entitled to)?
- financial "entitlements" are unconstitutional/inappropriate and should be ended (society has better solutions to the issues addressed)?
- government exists to protect & facilitate rights, not limit/suppress them? freedom *of* religion != freedom *from* religion?
Are these questions to vet candidates?
