What are your top four or five "truths" that determine your political beliefs?

Question

i will list mine at the end, would like to compare, if you want to name your political leanings ok

Answer 1

My one "truth" is that if the person who runs our country would be true to her or himself, be true to the American people, and, hopefully, be true to God.

Answer 2

It's nice to see you said "truths".

Answer 3

Cool question! I've never tried to distill my political beliefs into 5 truths, but her's a crack at it:

1) I believe that all people should be treated with dignity, no matter what their lot in life.

2) Individual liberty is what this country was built on.

3) Institutional privelidge helps keeps some peope wealthy and others poor.

4) Free Market captitalism requires regulation to ensure real competition otherwise it fails.

5) American lives are not worth more than lives in other countries.

I'll let you guess my political leanings, lol.

Answer 4

1 - all politicians are crooks

  2 -money controls all politicians

  3 -corporations run America and will soon run the world

  4 - The rich have been in class warfare for years and the poor are too trusting to believe that it is happening.to them.

  5 -The U.S. is becoming a third world country in terms of standard of living, health care, education,worker pay scale,health of it's citizens, and a life span that for the first time has shortened for it's citizens.

  What is my political leanings?  I'm an independent and I find both political parties unworthy of my vote.

Answer 5

1.) the USA is NOT above all other countries/more important than all other countries in the world.

2.) All humans are interconnected; I have a vested interest in how well your life is going and vice versa.

3.) Capitalism is not the be-all and end all of everything. Capitalism is like salt; too much of it in our diets and we are going to die (not to mention that the food will taste lousy!) Money is not the answer to everything. Money also does NOT buy class!

4.) Health care is a human right and not just for those with health insurance or only for rich people. that does not mean that people should be FORCED to deliver health care, or that they shouldn't profit for doing so; only that obscene profits are not necessary.

5.) it is not possible to completely protect ourselves from terrorists.

6.) (sorry, couldn't resist...) those wacko liberals that some people around here love to hate--it's not that they don't trust "regular" people to do the right thing--it's that they don't trust those with a great deal of money and power to always do the right thing. History has shown time and time again that those with a great deal of money and power often are indeed unscrupulous and abuse it. (power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely.)

Answer 6

Truth and politics are not related

Answer 7

That lowering taxes increases government revenue.

That abortion is murder

That the right to bare arms means the right to bare arms.

That the government is the worst organization to do almost anything and that almost all things should be provided by private industry, or charity.

That the government should encourage people to take responsibility for their own actions and encourage people to stand on their own two feet, instead of paying them to get them out of stupid jams, or paying them to be happy.
