What is your most strongly held political opinion?
Politicians work for us and are paid by taxes. They should be forbidden from accepting money from political action groups, parties, lobbies, etc.
Politicians should be PUBLIC SERVANTS not corporate pawns
Companies shouldnt be allowed to fund political matters.
How can we feel like an equal democracy, if we only have 2 parties consistently represented?
That we should vote for policies, not people.
Your political affiliation shouldn’t be your entire personality
Government and Church should be seperated
People should be able to afford food, water, and shelter with one full time job.
The two party system needs to end. Having only two options is the illusion of choice.
Civil rights for all. Equal Justice for all.
Humans should not have to choose between pain/death and tens/hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt.
The more power is distributed, the better-off we are

The dual party system is upheld by hate
Political Parties were and still are a terrible idea. There's a damn good reason George Washington didn't want them.
Ranked choice voting should be the standard for democracy
No poor kids should be hungry.
My dog is the best dog
Freedom is the right of all sentient beings. Transform and roll out!
Ranked choice voting is the first step towards a more perfect union.
There should be no career politicians.
That people are people and should be treated like people.
Voting day should be a national holiday. Once every 4 years dosnt seem like too much to ask for
Bring back Bottom up government as it was intended, now we have top down and the agencies that were there to protect the people with checks and balances are now captured agencies and sock puppets. Government is now just an arm of big business and the private central banks that fund them.
Discrimination is shit
Corporations should not be considered a “person” reaping the benefits of a real person. They should not be able to contribute to political campaigns as a person. Citizens United needs to be repealed. Big Business is now running this country into the ground because they hold the purse strings.
Democracy is not perfect, but still the best there is.

From the US, I don't want to just be able to vote Democrat or Republican. I want real choice where every party has equal opportunity.
Social media is terrible for society.
At this point, we need term limits.
Corporations should not have direct influence over politicians. The will of the voter should be the main driving factor for those in office.
8 year term limits. For ALL politicians. Period. No exceptions.
I want my gay married neighbors to protect their marijuana plants with whatever guns they want.
Anyone who thinks all their party’s decisions are good and all the other parties decisions are bad should not talk about politics.
The concept of thought crime must never be acceptable.
SEPERATE RELIGION FROM POLITICS!
The 2 party system is an illusion of choice, behind the scenes the top people in charge of both parties are partying together and enjoying their wealth while we're down here arguing which turd sandwich is better.
Congressmen and women & their families shouldn't be allowed to actively trade in the stock market. So they can't get rich off decisions ment to better the people.
religion should stay away from political laws of every kind,it will just muddle shit up
People are more important than profits. Capitalism isn't necessarily a bad set of game rules, but it needs some heavy regulation to keep the greedy psychopaths in check.
The Constitution created a system of checks and balance which use to work. It's been totally eliminated. This makes me angry and scared
Voting strictly on party lines impedes our progress as a society. Since parties frequently take opposite positions on major issues, individual initiatives with high public support (ie: legalization/ decriminalization of weed in the US) are less likely to be passed.
Trump and the 45 cult are going to be the destruction of the Constitution
that vacation time (PTO) should be a guaranteed right for all workers. I would make it three weeks guaranteed by law for all full time workers. Sadly neither party seems interested in this.
Gerrymandering spits in the face of democracy and everything that makes it great. Any politician who uses or endorses its use is a piece of shit who doesn’t actually care about the will of the people.
The average salary should be enough to afford the average house.
Cats are responsible for the immigration crisis in majority white countries.
Term limits on all political offices from the ground up and pay should be based off avg. income of the state or county they represent.
Term limits for Supreme Court justices. No more lifetime appointments.
Term limits on congress and justices.
That people trying to overturn elections through fraud, corruption, and mob violence are the greatest threat we face.
