Authoritarian Leaning Authoritarian Leaning Libertarian Libertarian
Campaign Advertising - campaign ads themselves should be free from content regulation, but paid political advertising should be banned outright Campaign Financing - paid political advertising should be banned, and the amount of money that politicians can raise from private individuals or organizations should be capped Capital Punishment Conscription - should be limited to times of war and only used when absolutely necessary, but keep draft registration and penalties for not registering. Women should also be required to register for the draft. Electoral Qualifications - if you are old enough to vote, you should be old enough to run for any office you please, period. Naturalized immigrants should be allowed to run for the presidency. Electoral Suffrage - you should be automatically registered to vote when you reach age sixteen, and it should be easy to vote. Voter IDs should be banned, as they're little more than a high-tech poll tax. Former felons should be allowed to vote. Jury Duty - should be relatively easy to get out of, if you have a work-related conflict or have children, but for the most part, I don't see a problem with the way it works now, except that jurors should be compensated better for their time (i.e. make it equal to what you would otherwise lose in wages for not working)
Fast Food - should be highly regulated to promote health and wellness among the citizenry. Fast Food outfits should be also more tightly regulated to prevent workplace abuse and allow fast food workers to join unions without employer interference. Also, ban advertising directed at minors. Pop in high school - allow the sale of diet or cane sugar-based sodas, ban pretty much everything else. Profanity in the media School uniforms - generally opposed, though if school districts want to adopt them, that's their choice. Sex in media Violence in media
Fashion industry - ban some of the more unrealistic airbrushing of models in ads, or at least require a disclaimer that said model has been airbrushed. Don't allow anorexic or bulimic models to model. Gambling - about what it is now. Pornography (consumption) - equalize the age that you can buy and view pornography with the age of consent. Pornography (production) - about what it is now. Prostitution - legalize, tax and regulate. Prostitutes should be licensed by the state, required to report their income, and required to use condoms. Prostitutes that test positive for diseases should lose their license until it's cured or if it's incurable or whatnot, not be allowed to continue prostituting. Strip clubs
Alcohol (advertising) Alcohol sales - should be legal to buy alcohol pretty much anywhere in the United States. The concept of a 'dry' county is something that we should actively seek to do away with. Sale should be limited to those having reached the age of majority, though persons under that age should not face legal ramifications for 'underage drinking.' Alcohol use (private) Alcohol use (public) - pretty much the way it is now. Public intoxication laws shouldn't be on the books - you should be persecuted for whatever it is you're doing in public that's against the law, not the fact that you're drunk. Hard drug advertising Hard drug sales Hard drug use (private) Hard drug use (public) Tobacco (advertising) Tobacco sales Tobacco use (private) Tobacco use (public) Soft drug advertising Soft drug sales Soft drug use (private) Soft drug use (public) - if and when soft drugs are made legal, I would support banning their use in public, outside of say, specific clubs for their use.
