What political party am I?
I recently became interested in American politics since I am growing up, and looking to maybe transfer into political science. Since I am knew at this I do not know what I am, can you categorize me so that I know what political party I am? Economics: I do not believe in trickle down theory, I oppose it. 2% should not be in charge of 98%. The money then stays at the top and barely trickles. So the wealth should be spread. And bonuses for high wages should at most equal to half of the persons salary, no more $25 million bonuses. Government: I believe in lots of rules and regulations, with very clear guideline. The taxes on the wealthy should be heavy, and for god sake, so should the major corporations. Education: We should be giving schools more money, not cutting the teaching force! Previous generations have screwed the up and coming, there is no reason they should have less opportunity then anyone else. Religion: I am a devout Catholic, but lets be real here... complete separation of church and state! There should be no politician out there that believes in creationism, for lack of a better term, thats absolutely ludicrous. Environment: America should go green, and really make a better initiative to. Costa Rica is 100% fuel independent, there is no reason we cannot get a high number of independence. We need to back away from these mass murdering dictatorships who have oil. If Saudi Arabia had an uprising, we would be there killing them off in a matter of seconds. We need to up our domestic drilling, especially where we have oil like in Alaska. Abortion: Please ladies abort away, clumps of cells are not human, i scratch them off my skin every day. Teen pregnancy is on the rise because girls are keeping these bastard children. This only leads to poverty and more and more working class workers rather then people looking to achieve something. And with the school situation who would even want to bring a child into a low income area. More economics: Let me embellish on spreading the wealth. Lets raise minimum wage to $10 an hour, and build our working class up so that we don't outsource. Outsourcing should be taxed like crazy, because as of right now companies are not taxed on products in different countries, lets tax them no matter where they make their money. How about this, for every 1 outsourced factory, they need to build 4 American ones. We give away jobs to immigrants meanwhile our unemployment is through the roof, although we are rebounding. Please let me know what this falls into, I would greatly appreciate it! =]

You are a full blown communist because over regulation and extreme taxation is no different from nationalization. You would do quite well as the dictator of Cuba. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

Stanley said: How are you a devout Catholic but advocate women having abortions? Aren't those contradicting? _____________________________________________ The liberal agenda is filled with hypocrisy. 1)Save killers, kill babies. 2)Tax to death the rich - except the richest democrats and give to the poor (except out of their liberal pockets), 3) save the environment and don't allow drilling for oil in our own land - then cry that we're dependent on other oil rich nations. 4) hates corporations and their outsourcing to other countries - love the unions that drove those corporations out of the U.S. 5) shall I go on and on?

You sound like an independent voter to me, Unfortunately no political party has a platform in line with Catholic moral and social teaching. The Catholic Church is pro-life in the widest sense. This is often called a "Consistent Ethic of Life." This pro-life stance stresses the highest regard for dignity of human life including that of: • All people in objecting to unjust war and nuclear arms. (closer to Democratic platform) • The unborn in objecting to to abortion, in vitro fertilization, frozen embryos, embryonic stem cell research, and cloning (closer to Republican platform) • The elderly, sick and dying in objecting to assisted suicide and euthanasia (closer to Republican platform) • Prisoners in objecting to the death penalty (closer to Democratic platform) • The poor and minorities in supporting social justice issues (closer to Democratic platform) Some Catholics are enthusiastically anti-abortion and align themselves with the Republican party. Some Catholics align themselves with the Democratic party which supports the "Catholic" issues that effect the most people. Neither party follows all Catholic teachings. For more information, see "Forming Consciences for Faithful Citizenship: A Call to Political Responsibility" http://www.usccb.org/faithfulcitizenship/FCStatement.pdf And the Catechism of the Catholic Church, sections 2259 and following: http://www.usccb.org/catechism/text/pt3sect2chpt2art5.htm#2259 With love in Christ.
