Trade
Trade is something necessary for any nation to survive. Free Trade is of great help to both the importer and the exporter. The people, who have sadly gained so much popularity in these past years, that claim that "home-produced," is an achievable goal is mind-blowing. Why would I spend $49 (per day, note this is federal minimum wage, not the one the majority of states have) at the very least just one worker when I could pay 1/5 of that for the same thing of slightly lower quality of the same quantity?

Monetary Policy
I am a staunch Montarist, while more extreme people say we should completely end the FED, I am more moderate, I believe that while the FED should be heavily restricted, it is still required. In my view, all the FED should do is maintain inflation to steady numbers.

Welfare
Welfare is an unnecessary evil. Public Housing is a joke that makes cities look like Bosnia in the 90s, it didn't achieve what it was even meant to do, and it even contradicted itself by separating poor and rich people apart. Healthcare is a service therefore you should have to pay for it. Self Reliance is important and far from impossible.

Intervention
The Government should never intervene in the economy. The invisible hand of the market is a real thing! If you don't like your work, you leave. The economy will regulate itself. The argument of "well if the government doesn't intervene then we're going to get the Rockefeller Monopolies back!" That's bullshit. It is absolutely impossible to create a monopoly without government intervention.

Privitization
Privatization is of great benefit to society. Privatization makes places safer, cleaner, and overall just more attractive to tourists, which puts up a nation's wealth. Really everything (other than military bases, political offices, and that sort of thing) should be privatized. The argument against privatization is that what's going to stop Jeff Bezos from propping up big skyscrapers in Central Park? Well if you look at things like museums, those areas are 95% of the time privatized. Privatization has all the benefits with little to no down-parts.

Taxes
Lower Taxes. On everyone. People who say that Trickle Down Economics doesn't work haven't seen the unemployment stats. It did. Notice that when Reagan got into office in 1981 it was 8.5%, when he left in 1989 it was 5.4%. Right after Reagan got out and they stopped using Reaganomics it went back up to 8%.

Drugs
If you really want people to stop using drugs then all you have to do is legalize them. During the Prohibition Era in the United States, people drank harder alcohol, drank more (a lot more), and, worst of all, unintentionally promoted big crime syndicates to sell those things, making them big. It's the same thing. We wouldn't have the big problem with cartels and crime if we legalize it. Mexico would not have so many problems with violence if they legalize it. You do realize that the legalization of drugs would put cartels out of business right? Also, I'd like to note I don't use drugs. I don't sell drugs (ironic name), I don't smoke, I don't do that because it's probably not good for me, but it's the choice of the person who's doing it.

Borders
Open Borders would be highly beneficial to the United States. It would bring over so much labor, so much talent and so much opportunity to the United States. "Oh but Dope Man, that would heavily increase crime and make the United States a crime pool." Yeah? Well maybe if we legalized drugs we wouldn't have such a big crime problem, would we?

Abortion
Killing babies? Why is this a common thing? My policy is that if you aren't hurting someone other than yourself it's fine, problem with abortion is that it is, by all means, killing babies. It shouldn't be treated as anything more, shouldn't be treated as anything less.

Freedom of Speech
Freedom of Speech is something that should be completely unrestricted. Completely. You can say absolutely anything and everything you want. You want to say racial slurs, horribly offensive jokes, homophobic jokes, transphobic jokes, whatever. Do it. It's your right.

Same-Sex Marrige and Trans
To be honest I couldn't give a fuck if a dude want's to marry another dude. I couldn't give a crap if a woman put a dick on herself and became a man. It should be legal, let them do it, it's not hurting anyone other than themselves.

Secularism
I personally believe in God and Jesus (albeit I don't adhere to any of the religions, I think they're all bullshit) but God shouldn't be in the government. Priests work as Priests not as Congressmen, God probably doesn't give 2 shits about a theocrat. Yes, government and church should be divided.

Guns
If everyone had guns, people wouldn't have to worry so much about shit like shootings. Guns are the only thing that's going to save you in a robbery or a shooting.
