Here are your answers compared to this voter’s answers.
Social › LGBT Adoption Rights
5>5 Personal answerYes, as long as they pass the same background checks as straight couples |
Social › Abortion
5>5 Personal answerMy personal beliefs are pro-life in all cases...but I would not oppose a compromise that allowed exceptions for victims of rape and incest, or in the case where a medical professional has made the determination that the mother would not survive existing complications. |
Social › Gay Marriage
5>5 Personal answerTake the government out of marriage and instead make it a religious decision |
the Economy › Equal Pay
5>5 Personal answerNo, there are too many other variables such as education, experience, and tenure that determine a fair salary |
Domestic Policy › Gun Control
5>5 Personal answerNo |
Crime › Police Body Cameras
5>5 Personal answerYes, this will protect the safety and rights of police officers and citizens |
Social › Marital Rape
5>5 Personal answerNo, it should be classified as domestic violence |
Healthcare › Drug Price Regulation
5>5 Personal answerNo, the government should never regulate prices of anything in a free market. The only exception to this would be where unavoidable monopolies exist, as is the case with most utility companies and the power line / pipe line distribution systems they create. |
Social › Gender Identity
5>5 Personal answerNo, there are only two genders which are genetically not psychologically determined |
Social › Religious Freedom Act
5>5 Personal answerYes, any business should be able to deny service for any reason |
Immigration › Muslim Immigrant Ban
5>5 Personal answerEveryone should be stopped from coming here unless they can prove who they are and how they will benefit our society as a whole. This is not racism or xenophobia…this is how it was from 1925, when we had to stop the then current flow of European immigrants because we simply couldn’t keep taking them in at that rate, until 1965, when Senator Edward Kennedy decided that the best way to guarantee his legacy and the future of his party was to push through legislation that would allow in as many unskilled immigrants as possible and then work to win over their hearts and minds to become registered democrats. For the forty years between, we only took in the absolute “best and brightest”, doctors, engineers, scientists, as well as authors, musicians, artists, and the like…and our nation prospered as a result. Our current immigration policies have us heading in the other direction now. |
Social › Planned Parenthood Funding
5>5 Personal answerNo, and the government should not give funds to any organizations that perform abortions |
the Economy › Minimum Wage
5>5 Personal answerNo, this will only cause prices to increase in a never ending cycle |
the Environment › Climate Change
5>5 Personal answerNo |
the Economy › Paid Sick Leave
5>5 Personal answerNo, private businesses should decide the amount of competitive incentives they offer to employees instead of a government mandate |
Domestic Policy › Drug Policy
5>5 Personal answerOnly Marijuana, so as to provide relief for our over burdened courts and jails and free them up to concentrate on greater societal ills...but it should be left up to the individual states, so the people can have greater say and greater control over the process, and can ultimately vote with their feet as a course of last resort. In the end, pot should be addressed by society and the legal system in the same manner as alcohol…establish behavioral norms, set legal limits, and enforce both. |
Domestic Policy › Term Limits
5>5 Personal answerYes, but that alone will not improve Washington. We need men and women of honor and integrity to represent us by putting the good of our nation ahead of the agenda of a particular political party or special interest...lacking that, it doesn't matter how long or short a period of time they are in office. |
Foreign Policy › Mandatory Military Service
5>5 Personal answerNo, absolutely not. The military needs to remain an organization filled with only those that believe in what it stands for, and have the honor and patriotism to do what has to be done to accomplish the mission at hand…anything short of that jeopardizes the mission and puts everyone at risk, which is to say it gets people killed. Think of it in this way, whatever your occupation is, how successful would your organization be if you were forced to take on individuals that did not want to be there, and were only doing so because some idiotic judge thought that it might be a good experience for them…would you want to work next to someone like that? We’ve already been down that road, it didn’t work in Vietnam and it won’t work now. |
Domestic Policy › Muslim Surveillance
5>5 Personal answerYes, our constitution not only allows dissent, it encourages it…but dissent should not be confused with sedition, revolt, and anarchy. If a Christian Church is restricted from discussing politics from the pulpit, for fear of loosing their 3c non-profit charter, then how is it possible that a Mosque could be allowed to preach the implementation of Shari law through acts violence and terrorism. We need to take whatever steps necessary to insure the protection of our nation and our way of life from those that would see it destroyed. |
Immigration › Immigration
5>5 Personal answerNo, that was never the intent of the 14th amendment, which was originally conceived as an “end-run” around the slavery question…granting citizenship to the child of a slave meant that child couldn’t be considered personal property, and that slavery would eventually be breed-out after a single generation. Later, after the abolishment of slavery, it became the constitutional grounds by which the children of former slaves automatically became citizens. The 14th amendment resolved many legal questions of the day regarding post slavery, but was never meant to apply to immigrants (that already held citizenship elsewhere), and certainly not illegal immigrants. |
Education › Student Loans
5>5 Personal answerNo, and if there is a riff between original interest rates and current rates, then that creates a demand for refinancing, and private lending institutions should be allowed to enter the student loan market place and meet the consumer’s needs. |
Social › Death Penalty
5>5 Personal answerYes |
Healthcare › Marijuana
5>5 Personal answerYes, and if for no other reason, so as to provide relief for our over burdened courts and jails and free them up to concentrate on greater societal ills...but it should be left up to the individual states, so the people can have greater say and greater control over the process, and can ultimately vote with their feet as a course of last resort. In the end, pot should be addressed by society and the legal system in the same manner as alcohol…establish behavioral norms, set legal limits, and enforce both. |
Social › Confederate Flag
5>5 Personal answerYes, each state should have the right to display any flag they choose |
Social › Government Mandates
5>5 Personal answerNo, the government should not decide what services a private business can provide |
Domestic Policy › No-Fly List Gun Control
5>5 Personal answerNo, the "no-fly" list a tool devised and overseen by one government agency to assist them in performing their mission, in particular, improving the overall safety of air travelers, and as such, should not be hijacked and corrupted by a particular political party or special interest group just so that they can further their agenda. If it’s that great of an idea, let the Bureau of Tobacco, Alcohol, and Firearms come up with their own “no gun” list. |
Domestic Policy › NSA Domestic Surveillance
5>5 Personal answerYes, as it is an unfortunate necessity for safety in today's world, however, it needs strict oversight from both our elected officials as well as the media...problem is, it is becoming harder and harder to find individuals of honor and integrity without a particular political bent on either side of that equation. |
Domestic Policy › Gerrymandering
5>5 Personal answerYes, the current system is crooked as hell…but good luck finding those “independent & non-partisan” individuals. |
Social › Women in Combat
5>5 Personal answerWe, as a people, do not dictate the way firemen should fight fires, we defer to their expert knowledge and experience to determine what is best for their industry...why should we approach the military any differently. Let the military and the military alone decide this issue, especially given what is at stake. |
Immigration › Illegal Immigrant Detainment
5>5 Personal answerYes, but its not a question of being “allowed” to detain illegals, they are required to detain them by federal law, and for the most part they do. It’s at the federal level that things go astray. Either ICE never comes to pick up the illegals, and then eventually tells the local authority to release them (if they bother to contact the locals at all), or on the rare occasion that ICE does pick up the illegals, they then turn around and releases them themselves. All of this is counter to existing federal law, and all of it is not only condoned but encouraged by the current administration. |
Healthcare › Medicaid
5>5 Personal answerNo, and eligibility should only include the elderly and disabled |
Science › Mandatory Vaccinations
5>5 Personal answerYes, but only for deadly contagious diseases |
Immigration › Border Security
5>5 Personal answerWe need to do whatever it takes to re-secure our open borders reestablish our immigration policies. If that means increasing restrictions, increase them. If it means just enforcing the ones we have, then enforce them. If it means building a fence, build the fence. If it means building a giant moat and filling it with alligators, dig the moat. Whatever it takes, it needs to be done, not talked about, and it needs to be done before the discussion of what to do with the illegals that are already here can begin. |
Social › Gender Workplace Diversity
5>5 Personal answerNo, board members should be selected by the stock holders alone based on whatever criteria they deem important to them at the time...the government should never interfere in that process. |
the Environment › Alternative Energy
5>5 Personal answerNo, end all tax credits and subsidies to the energy industry |
Immigration › Immigration Healthcare
5>5 Personal answerNo, a wall alone will not stop illegal immigration, any incentive to come here illegally must be removed if we want to regain control of our borders and reestablish our immigration policies. Illegals should not be given access to any public funds, or programs paid for with public funds. |
Elections › Campaign Finance
5>5 Personal answerNo, no restrictions should be placed on private political donations, unless you are prepared to place the entire political election process on the backs of the tax-payer, however, all donations should be transparent and disclosed, and that means all the way back to the original source…not holding companies, foundations, etc., that provide cover for funding for foreign or illegal sources. |
Immigration › Immigrant Laborers
5>5 Personal answerNo, but then again, isn’t this a moot question in the first place ? If illegals are not being actively tracked down and deported, isn’t that in itself a de facto amnesty ? Granted, we do not have the logistical capabilities nor can we afford the cost to round up every illegal and deport them, so if they are staying off of the criminal justice system’s radar, they can stay, but that doesn’t mean we reward them. We need to remove every incentive for immigrants to come here illegally, and amnesty is the greatest incentive of all. Let them go back to their country of origin and apply for legal entry, or retain someone already there to do it for them. When their number comes up, they can apply for legal citizenship, but until then, no public assistance, no government programs, no incentives. |
Elections › Voter Fraud
5>5 Personal answerYes, without a doubt. You have to produce a photo ID to enter a federal courthouse, cash a check, buy cigarettes or alcohol, and a vast array of other reasons too long to list here, and all of this is done without trampling on anyone’s God given rights. Requiring a photo ID to vote would not create any additional burden on anyone and the only vote it would suppress would be that of the deceased and those that routinely vote multiple times under different aliases. One could only conclude that those that oppose this measure would be those that believed they benefit from voter fraud and do not whish to upset the status quo. Their motives could not be more transparent, and any argument to support their position insults the intelligence of anyone with a functioning brain. |
the Economy › Corporate Tax
5>5 Personal answerLower, we need to reduce the tax and regulatory burden on the private sector so they can maximize their profits and grow their businesses. The greater the corporate growth, the greater the hiring, the more people we have back at work, the greater the economic growth and the greater the government’s tax base…it’s “win-win” for everyone and a no-brainer. |
Domestic Policy › Patriot Act
5>5 Personal answerYes, again, another unfortunate necessity for safety in today's world. And if you doubt its need, ask yourself this: the day after 9-11, we had pictures of all 19 of the hijackers…where did those pictures come from? Were they all recent graduates from “Al-Qaida University” and those photos taken from their class’s year book? To have those photos so quickly meant they were all on someone’s radar at one time or another…different police organizations or intelligence agencies, none of whom were talking to each other, none of whom had enough of the pieces to put the puzzle together, and none of whom had the ability to step in until an actual crime was committed (which when it comes to terrorism, is too late). The patriot Act changed all of that and is the number one reason why an operation the scale of 9-11 has not taken place on our shores since. |
the Economy › Government Spending
5>5 Personal answerYes |
Foreign Policy › Israel
5>5 Personal answerYes, but respect Israel’s sovereignty and do not dictate how it should interact with its neighbors |
Immigration › Immigrant Assimilation
5>5 Personal answerYes, a lot easier than having the rest of us learn the other 6,500 languages…but this only applies to those that are applying for citizenship, it is of no consequence to those that have come here illegally. Again, any incentive to come here illegally must be removed, so do away with the multilingual signs and services, along with anything else that makes life here easier for them. |
Domestic Policy › Net Neutrality
5>5 Personal answerYes, the internet should remain a private institution devoid of excess government interference and restrictions. Let the free market decide what is and is not desired functionality. The existing laws that govern brick & mortar business (anti-trust laws, laws against price fixing, etc.) apply to internet business as well, and should be all that is necessary until proven otherwise. |
Social › First Amendment
5>5 Personal answerNo, religion is an important aspect of our country’s history |
Domestic Policy › Gun Liability
5>5 Personal answerNo, and it is a ludicrous question. Lets say someone were to climb to the top of their house and wave an aluminum broom handle back and forth in the middle of a thunder storm until they were struck and killed by lightning. Would it be OK for the surviving spouse to sue the manufacturer of either the ladder or the broom that was used in the commission of that act of extreme stupidity? And how would that be any different than suing the manufacturer of a car that was being driven by a drunk driver that caused a fatal accident? |
Social › Niqāb
5>5 Personal answerThis is a pathetic solution to a serious problem and would be no different than making all men shave their beards…it would not solve anything. We need to take drastic measures to vet anyone entering this country and equally as drastic steps to identify and eliminate those already among us that seek our destruction. Doing so based on the clothing they wear is as effective as basing it on what their favorite color is. |
Crime › Solitary Confinement for Juveniles
5>5 Personal answerNo, it is necessary for violent criminals who are a danger to themselves and other inmates |
Social › Euthanasia
5>5 Personal answerYes |
Immigration › Skilled Immigrants
5>5 Personal answerDecrease, the original intent of the program was to create relief in the work place when the demand for a particular skill is greater than the supply of individuals that possess that skill…but far too often business corrupt that intent and claim a false shortage, when in reality there are plenty of individuals that possess that particular skill, just not a lot that are willing to work for the lower wages that the immigrants will work for. Let’s get every American that wants to work back to work, then we can reassess our needs and go from there. |
Domestic Policy › Affirmative Action
5>5 Personal answerNo, colleges and universities should only accept the best and brightest students based solely on academic and athletic related criteria, without regard to race, ethnicity, or social status. Institutions and business should be free to hire the best and brightest workers in the same manner. The cream should always be allowed to rise to the top without government intervention…anything else puts our nation at a competitive disadvantage with the rest of the world, which does not and will not accept our social values. |
the Economy › Welfare
5>5 Personal answerMore, and deny benefits to immigrants |
the Economy › Labor Unions
5>5 Personal answerHurt |
the Economy › Economic Stimulus
5>5 Personal answerNo, the money came from tax payers, and it went to those in favor with the current administration…case in point, Solyndra, a single solar panel manufacturer, received 537 million (and shortly there after filed for bankruptcy), how much do you suppose the entire coal industry received ? Let businesses keep more of their money in the first place and maybe the economy won’t get to the point where it would need to be “stimulated”. |
the Economy › Welfare Drug Testing
5>5 Personal answerYes, test anyone receiving money from the government including employees and politicians |
the Economy › Capital Gains Tax
5>5 Personal answerNo, increasing the capital gains tax will limit investment in our economy |
Immigration › In-State Tuition
5>5 Personal answerNo, they should not be allowed to attend any college without proof of citizenship, again, any incentive to come here illegally must be removed if we want to regain control of our borders and reestablish our immigration policies. |
Education › Common Core
5>5 Personal answerNo, the original concept had merit, but like most good ideas, it can and has been exploited by those that place higher value on advancing their political and social agenda over the best interest of our nation as a whole…we need to spend less time indoctrinating students and more time educating them, so that we can remain competitive on the world stage. |
the Environment › Oil Drilling
5>5 Personal answerYes |
Foreign Policy › United Nations
5>5 Personal answerYes, but greatly scale back our financial support to be more inline with other supporting nations…and move the headquarters from it’s current location in New York to somewhere else, like Switzerland perhaps. |
Healthcare › Obamacare
5>5 Personal answerNo, open the markets so insurers can compete across state lines and reduce costs |
Elections › Candidate Transparency
5>5 Personal answerNo |
the Environment › Fracking
5>5 Personal answerYes |
Foreign Policy › Yemen
5>5 Personal answerNo, we should stay out of conflicts that are not an immediate threat to our security |
the Economy › Overtime Pay
5>5 Personal answerNo, and the government is currently over-regulating private businesses |
Domestic Policy › Eminent Domain
5>5 Personal answerYes, Eminent Domain has always been with us and has been the primary means by which land has been acquired in order to build the schools our children go to, the hospitals that care for us, and the very roads that we drive on. The problem comes when one private individual is asked to give way to another. In these cases, the rights of the individual and the good of the community have always been carefully weighed by the elected officials of the municipality involved, and should always remain as such. Any grievance that may arise should be resolved by the courts on a case by case basis. |
Foreign Policy › Military Spending
5>5 Personal answerIncrease, we need to bring our military strength back up to the pre-Obama levels, but there has to be a new mechanism in place to oversee the spending. A politically neutral means, if such a thing is possible. Far too often the military has tried to close bases only to have them remain open by the efforts of congressmen that don’t want to see the effected jobs go elsewhere. Right now we have the branch of the military getting ready to take delivery of an obsolete weapons system that they didn’t ask for, all because it provided jobs for the constituents of a high ranking member of the Senate Armed Services Committee. There has to be a better way. |
Science › Nuclear Energy
5>5 Personal answerYes |
Foreign Policy › Torture
5>5 Personal answerPOW’s should be interrogated for whatever intel they could provide, but not tortured …the problem lies in that “torture” is a vague and subjective term that should be removed from the narrative. Create a graduated scale with the mildest of interrogation techniques on one end and the harshest on the other. Let the world agree upon the exact point on that scale that separates acceptable behavior from unacceptable behavior, and then put this discussion to rest for ever. |
Foreign Policy › ISIS Ground Troops
5>5 Personal answerYes, but only after an extensive air campaign against all of their known positions. Get rid of the smart bombs, you could buy hundreds of conventional bombs for the cost of a single cruise missile…then reinstitute the tried and true method of carpet bombing our adversaries back into the stone age…by the time we put boots on the ground, the only acceptable injuries should be those sustained from tripping over dead bodies or getting hit in the head by debris that hadn’t finished falling back to earth. |
Foreign Policy › North Korea Military Strikes
5>5 Personal answerNo, we should let China address this issue |
Foreign Policy › Foreign Aid
5>5 Personal answerThe current spending amount, along with any increases or decreases, should be directly tied into a quid pro quo that has direct and immediate benefit to our national interest, either from the standpoint of world trade, national security, or both. And under no circumstances should money or resources be given to a nation that engages in hostilities against our nation or supports those that do (as was recently done with Iran). |
Foreign Policy › Drones
5>5 Personal answerOnly in designated war zones, and only for the purpose of gathering intelligence. Air strikes by drones should be stopped immediately and a ban should be negotiated by the nations of the world. Right now we enjoy a near monopoly of the use of these drones, but eventually, as with all weapons systems, it will be available to everyone…every time one comes down in hostile territory is an opportunity to reverse engineer the technology and make it available to our adversaries. If you follow this technology to its logical conclusion, miniaturization of both platform and weapons will eventually lead to no world leader being safe from airborne assassination by fringe elements that would have no fear of using them. |
Science › GMO Labels
5>5 Personal answerYes, consumers have a right to know what is in their food |
Domestic Policy › Social Security
5>5 Personal answerYes, but only as one of as many steps as may be required to ensure the solvency of the program, without raising taxes, borrowing more money, or printing more money. The same scrutiny should be applied to all other government spending programs, so as to reign in overspending, cut down on waste and fraud, and eventually bring down the runaway national debt. |
the Economy › Estate Tax
5>5 Personal answerNo, I am satisfied with the current rate |
Crime › Criminal Voting Rights
5>5 Personal answerYes, but only after completing their sentences and parole/probation |
Foreign Policy › Terrorism
5>5 Personal answerNo, absolutely not. We are at war, and even though our leaders have a hard time coming to grips with that fact, our adversaries do not share their lack of clarity. Those that take up the sword against this nation should be put to the sword. Captured enemy combatants should be considered Prisoners of War, subject to the Geneva Convention, not the US Constitution…the very document that they seek to destroy and replace with Shari Law. |
Foreign Policy › War on ISIS
5>5 Personal answerYes, but not for the sake of sending in the troops, that can be done with or without the articles of war (where has congressional oversight been in any conflict since WWII, but that’s another topic). A declaration of war legally opens the door to treating enemy combatants on our shores as enemy combatants subject to military law, and not as criminals subject to constitutional rights. This provides us with greater resources and faster response time in dealing with the clear and present threat confronting us now. |
Science › Space Exploration
5>5 Personal answerNo, the space program gave us great advancements in science, engineering, and medicine in the 60’s and 70’s, but right now the benefits do not justify the costs, and the government should stay out of the equation until that relationship is reversed. |
Foreign Policy › NATO
5>5 Personal answerYes, for the sake of maintaining the current balance of power, but the member nations that are spending less than 2 % are in violation of their original agreement, and steps should be taken to bring them back into compliance...which may have to include expulsion from NATO. |
Foreign Policy › Ukraine
5>5 Personal answerNo, first off, the Ukraine is not a member state of the UN, and as such we have no mandate to intervene. Secondly, there is no threat of “Russian military aggression spreading into Europe”…this is a geo-political affair, 95% is about Russia getting access to the Ukrainian ports on the Black Sea, 5% is about smacking around a former satellite state of the USSR and reminding them that Russia is still the big dog and is still relevant (and in fact, that might actually be a 99% / 1% spread). Eventually, the Ukraine will acquiesce to Russia and allow them to build their new oil pipelines to the Black Sea and will guarantee them unfettered access to their ports, and Russia in turn will pick up all their toys and go home. In the end, Russia will be able to get their oil to the market faster and at less cost, thereby increasing their profit margins and raising their badly needed oil revenues…which the Ukraine will profit from as well. …or of course, we could just start World war III, there’s always that. |
the Economy › Offshore Banking
5>5 Personal answerYes, it’s their money, they should be free to invest it anywhere they choose…the real issue here, is why isn’t that money being invested here instead ? We need to improve our economy and drastically increase growth. Lower the corporate tax rate, reduce the regulatory restrictions, let the small business be the job creation engine that they once were, and the American investor won’t have to pull their money out of our economy and go elsewhere. |
Domestic Policy › Edward Snowden
5>5 Personal answerNo, Snowden took more than just documents that exposed the surveillance programs that were against his personal beliefs and that he felt the public needed to be aware of. Records show that the majority of what he took was related to military and national defense. There definitely needs to be trial for the full story to come to light. |
the Economy › Federal Reserve
5>5 Personal answerYes |
Foreign Policy › NSA Surveillance
5>5 Personal answerYes, constant surveillance is an unfortunate reality in the world we now live in…just do a better job of vetting the NSA employees and sub-contractors so idiots like Snowden don’t feel compelled to pull back the curtain and reveal everything to the world. Like it or not, there are reasons why there has not been another terrorist attack the scale of 9-11 on our shores since then, and reasons why other countries like France, Belgium, and Germany appear powerless to stop them. |
Foreign Policy › Cuba
5>5 Personal answerYes, and it should have been done years ago. We should have had a McDonalds in Havana the day after the Russians cut off foreign aid to them. There is no argument for not doing so...if we can overlook the human rights violations of China, our largest trading partner, we can do so with Cuba. Cuba represents a new market for American products and services, which is good for our economy. Further isolationism will gain nothing (how's that working out with North Korea?). |
the Economy › Farm Subsidies
5>5 Personal answerYes, but only in the situation where they are needed to step in to due to unforeseen market situations, much as the FDIC would do with banks…but at no time should anyone be paid not to grow crops, and under no circumstances should the huge Agriculture industry giants, like Arched-Daniels, receive a penny. In short, there should be a comprehensive overhaul of the policies and procedures as to whom and when subsidies can be paid. |
Foreign Policy › Russian Airstrikes in Syria
5>5 Personal answerNo, both Russia and the United States have a long mutual history of one poking their nose into the affairs of a third world country without the other following suit with any action other than an occasional comment of condemnation spoken at a UN General Counsel meeting. Case in point, where was Russia when we took on Iraq in the first Gulf War, or when we went back, or when we went into Afghanistan ? And there are many more examples prior to that. (OK, with Afghanistan, they were sitting back laughing their butts off waiting for us to fail…like they did) The point is, there is nothing in the 3rd world that is worth a confrontation between the two greatest supper powers (for the time being at least) and starting World War III. Let them get their people killed for a change, we could use the break. |
the Economy › Property Taxes
5>5 Personal answerNo, but reducing the tax rate for seniors is not a bad idea…of course that would require raising it for non-seniors so as to offset the difference and maintain a zero balance between revenue and the cost of services. It should be “means tested”, so that the benefit goes to those that need it, not those that have a vacation home in the Hamptons and more money in the Cayman Islands then the Castro brothers. |
the Economy › Pension Reform
5>5 Personal answerYes, pension spending is out of control and must be reduced |
the Economy › Government Pensions
5>5 Personal answerNo, not until we decrease our national debt |
the Economy › Bitcoin
5>5 Personal answerNo, it provides too high of risk for criminal activity |
the Economy › Trans-Pacific Partnership
5>5 Personal answerNo |
the Economy › Online Sales Tax
5>5 Personal answerNo, the on-line market place is an excellent example of how the private sector can flourish and grow when the federal government is not involved. A 5% tax would not just increase the cost of online goods by 5 %, the increase would be exponentially higher, depending on the size of the business, as the cost to cover the administrative burden of hiring someone to collect the tax, disperse it out to potentially 50 different states, and keep the required records, could potentially double the cost of small items offered by small retailers, the “Mom & Pop” retailers, which make up the fast majority of retailers on E-bay and similar sites. |
