I think this thread will die because I don't think ANY Right Winger will stand up and answer this.
The one thing that Fox News teaches the Right is that we need to compete with other Countries to be successful. So let's have that debate now. Or maybe you only repeat what you are told to by your Cult media source and can't........If you are good at debating politics then answer these questions. Debate IS about answering questions.....
Question;
1) What should the lowest age limit be for employment? Depends on the occupation, although I think it should be low for certain ones such as newspaper delivery, because that's one example of a good job for kids.
2) What should the minimum wage be and/or should there be one? $20
3) Doctors (or anything that presents risk to life in America)can't just become doctors without proof of education on the subject because people can die if the doctor is a fake. Proof of education on the topic is needed. What educational limits should be placed on owning an AR-15 and/or a 100 round drum mag? People don't have a constitutional right to a specific profession. Gun ownership is not an occupation, it's a fucking right. Should citizens have to pass a certain level of education before they can write words in public view?
4) If in theory ALL AMERICANS wanted something, yet the Congress didn't pass it..........who more resembles a Dictatorship in this theory? The Americans or Congress? Neither one. At worst, one is correct and the other incorrect. The Congress is at least better educated, albeit more corrupt
5) The Bible teaches Free Will Religion. It teaches that using law to enforce Christianity is casting stones. Yet laws against gays punish them for not being Christian. But this topic in the Bible was about people who think that their sins are ok, but someone elses aren't. And people have created a "sin level meter" which makes certain sins worse than others. The only sin rating system I know of is the 10 commandments. And then we have the Constitution that promotes "Freedom of Religion." And the Bible states, "Do not judge or be judged"........... So here is the question........Should gays be allowed to get married? I think if you think they don't have the freedom to you are a non-American and a judgemental Christian. But I also think that if you are a Christian, you shouldn't be forced to marry a gay couple. But guess what, laws even prevent them from getting married at a court house. Louis C.K.~ "If they aren't touching dongs in my front yard...I really don't care." First, passing laws is not casting stones - it's establishing order and justice. Second, if Mary Magdalene had broken some law, and Roman authorities had come to arrest her, Christ would not have enterfered with Caesar's laws. Instead, he told her to sin no more, which is typically what your dreaded Christian Right is doing. Civil marriage is dead anyway, so I see no point in defending it outside of the Church.
6) What air pollution PPM standard would you put on a Corporation? The lower, the better in most cases
7) Oil Fracking. Should this be allowed? No, are you indicating that it should be?
8) Does "Obamacare" challenge the Intersate Commerce Clause if the majority of Ameircans want it? Only if it's unconstitutional. If not, then go nuts giving the people what they want.
9) Should we be FREE to sell unpasteurized milk and if so, what should be the punishment if it kills a child? My current candidate stands behind this even when my local hospitals show that less educated people use this method and sometimes kill their children. Is the "sometimes" ok when profit is at stake? Free to sell, and negligent homicide if it kills a minor. I personally think buying and consuming unpasteurized milk is moronic.
10) Should boys play with baby dolls? No, I would encourage them to play with trains, trucks, legos, etc. Having seen your earlier response, I don't look to Barbies as a means to teach good child-rearing skills. Good child-rearing also includes teaching useful skills, such as driving and building stuff. Again, kids who don't play with toy cars and legos aren't necessarily going to suck at those tasks.
