Domestic Policy › Supreme Court Reform
KL>KL Personal answerThe Supreme Court, and the judiciary more broadly, should be depoliticized. Judges should be appointed on a non-partisan basis, by law professionals such as other judges, and lawyers. More seats and term limits would both be good ideas. |
Domestic Policy › NSA Domestic Surveillance
KL>KL Personal answerNo, only with a warrant showing probable cause of criminal activity |
Domestic Policy › Gerrymandering
KL>KL Personal answerYes, switch to a multi-member, proportionally selected redistricting system |

the Environment › Alaska Wildlife Refuge
KL>KL Personal answerNo, and increase alternative energy subsidies to eliminate our dependence on fossil fuels |
Elections › Voter Fraud
KL>KL Personal answerNo, and automatically register every citizen to vote when they reach voting age. And there is little evidence that large-scale voter fraud even exists. 99 times out of a 100, voter ID laws are a scheme by Republicans to disenfranchise ethnic minority groups, student, and other demographic groups that lean Democratic. |
the Economy › Corporate Tax
KL>KL Personal answerRaise |
Social › Safe Spaces
KL>KL Personal answerThere are some people who have legitimate mental conditions such as PTSD who are triggered and go into extreme emotional or mental states that they cannot control when they hear certain words and sounds, and for this reason they need special treatment from the school. You don't get to decide whether a mental condition is "legitimate" or not. That being said, these should not be provided to non-mentally-disabled students just to shield them from opposing opinions and viewpoints. If you are familiar with the issue, and have first-hand experience with it, chances are you are correct and should not be worried about hearing people who disagree. They are likely wrong and ignorant in that case, and just making an ass of themselves publicly. |
Foreign Policy › Foreign Elections
KL>KL Personal answerNo, for fuck's sake. How is this even a question? |
Domestic Policy › Patriot Act
KL>KL Personal answerNo, and pass strict laws prohibiting government surveillance without probable cause and a warrant |

KL>KL Personal answerYes, to 15 or 16. |
Foreign Policy › Israel
KL>KL Personal answerIsrael is rapidly turning into a theocracy, without respect for democracy or human rights. If current trends continue, it is the duty of the United States to intervene. Palestine should be recognized by the US, and the recognition of Jerusalem as the Israeli capital should be reversed. |
Foreign Policy › NATO

KL>KL Personal answerYes, all residents should have voting rights from day one.

But American citizens who permanently live abroad should not have the right to vote, since they no longer are "part of the community", so to speak. |
Healthcare › Safe Haven
KL>KL Personal answerYes, drug abuse should be treated as a health issue, not a criminal issue |
Healthcare › Medicare Drug Prices
KL>KL Personal answerYes |
Domestic Policy › Affirmative Action

Domestic Policy › Whistleblower Protection
KL>KL Personal answerYes |
Foreign Policy › United Nations
KL>KL Personal answerYes |
Foreign Policy › Afghanistan
KL>KL Personal answerYes |
Healthcare › Obamacare
KL>KL Personal answerYes, but a mandatory single payer system would be even better |
Elections › Candidate Transparency
KL>KL Personal answerYes, and also their medical records. Tax returns and medical records should also be released when they are in office. |
the Environment › Fracking
KL>KL Personal answerNo, we should pursue more sustainable energy resources instead |
Elections › Lobbyists
KL>KL Personal answerYes, and ban all forms of lobbying |
the Economy › Overtime Pay
KL>KL Personal answerYes, and all employees should be paid time-and-a-half for overtime hours regardless of their pay scale |
Domestic Policy › Eminent Domain
KL>KL Personal answerEminent domain is an evil, but sometimes a necessary one. It should only be used for public projects, and landowners should be compensated drastically above fair market price. |
Elections › Electoral College
KL>KL Personal answerThe president should be directly elected using the contingent vote: Voters rank candidates, and if one candidate has a majority of the first-preference vote, that person is the winner. If no one has a majority, all but the top two are eliminated, and all ballots for lower-placed candidates are given to whichever of the top two candidates that is ranked higher on any given ballot. This ensures that a single candidate has a majority in the second round. If this isn't possible, I support abolishing the Electoral College and going with the first-past-the-post winner of the popular vote. |
Foreign Policy › Military Spending
KL>KL Personal answerDecrease that shit by 90%. |
the Environment › Animal Testing
KL>KL Personal answerYes, but not for cosmetics |

Foreign Policy › Foreign Aid
KL>KL Personal answerIncrease |
Foreign Policy › North Korea Military Strikes

Foreign Policy › Drones
KL>KL Personal answerYes, but only with permission from the country in question, and only known terrorists (not suspected ones). |
Science › GMO Labels
KL>KL Personal answerNo, we have selectively bred crops for thousands of years and labeling just adds an unfounded stigma to the science |
Crime › Prison Overcrowding
KL>KL Personal answerNo, the prison system in general should be reworked, as it currently takes advantages of its place in society to avoid constitutional law and take away the rights of citizens. Instead of releasing criminals before the end of their sentence, issue just and reasonable punishment for crimes of differing caliber and public opinion. The fact that prisons are overcrowded is proof of an ineffective judicial system. |
Education › Universal Pre-K
KL>KL Personal answerYes, but funding should come from states instead of the federal government |
Transportation › Public Transportation
KL>KL Personal answerYes, and provide more free public transportation |
Education › Charter Schools

the Economy › Estate Tax
KL>KL Personal answerI'm not informed enough to form a full opinion |
Crime › Criminal Voting Rights
KL>KL Personal answerYes. Denying the right to vote to anyone, even if they were convicted of a serious crime, and even if they are currently in prison, is morally repugnant. It is a violation of the human right to influence the future direction of their community, and it is nakedly unconstitutional as a "cruel and unusual punishment". |
the Environment › Plastic Product Ban
KL>KL Personal answerYes, and ban all disposable products that are not made of 100% of biodegradable material |
Foreign Policy › Terrorism
KL>KL Personal answerThey should not "be given" these rights, because they already have these rights. Terrorism suspects should get a fair trial the same as anyone else. Anything else would be a human rights violation of the worst order. I am disgusted that this is even a question. Aren't we better than this? |
National Security › Military Congressional Approval
KL>KL Personal answerNo, Congress should approve all military conflicts |
the Environment › Paris Climate Agreement
KL>KL Personal answerNo |
the Economy › Tech Monopolies
KL>KL Personal answerNot break them up, but make sure they don't monopolize industries or harm other business interests |

KL>KL Personal answerNo, they should be captured and given a fair trial |
Domestic Policy › College Sports and COVID
KL>KL Personal answerNo, until there is a vaccine |

KL>KL Personal answerNo |
the Economy › Property Taxes
KL>KL Personal answerNot informed enough to have a legitimate opinion. |
the Economy › Tariffs
KL>KL Personal answerNo, a global free trade system is better for our businesses and consumers |
Foreign Policy › Jerusalem
KL>KL Personal answerNo, and foreign governments should not move their embassies there |
Education › School Truancy
KL>KL Personal answerWait, WHAT? That's illegal? I am so dead. |

KL>KL Personal answerYes, adjust them yearly for cost of living |
the Environment › Corporate Subsidies
KL>KL Personal answerNo, the government should never subsidize private businesses |
the Economy › State Ownership

the Economy › Trans-Pacific Partnership
KL>KL Personal answerYes |
