>>My issue with the topics you mentioned is that too many times, these policies wind up negatively impacting lower-middle and middle-income working families....and/or they backfire on the very people they are intended to benefit ( and sometimes "by design", in the case of Planned Parenthood).
What topics? You mean education for poor communities? As well as for your community? Feels like a leveler to me, though as I mentioned earlier it might be smart to spend extra $ on girls in poor communities.
>>Surely you're aware that he's a HUGE critic of ACA and a vocal proponent of "repeal and replace"...
He says the ACA needs to be replaced before it is repealed. With what? Here's what he proposed: ""The only responsibility of the government would be providing $2,000 per year for every American citizen -- around $630 billion annually, about 20 percent of what we currently spend on health care -- to provide everyone with a health savings account." What do you think of that idea?
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
