Do you disagree with the party you vote for on any big issues?

What issues? I wish mine would raise taxes.

Sounds like the right is preparing for a renewed weed prohibition country wide. That's a bad idea in my mind. We need to legalize it already.

At least medical would be better than nothing. The coming prohibition in the states is likely to take medical off the table. I know some one close to me that would greatly benefit from it medically, I think. I often feel I need for myself for some of my pain in day to day work. I'd be happier to.
@crabbyhermit: The war on drugs is wearing thin with the public. Prohibition at this time would only galvanize the people and likely inspire even further action. [youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OofDALmyKk8]

I'm a Democrat but I don't like the ACA because i'm in favor of Single Payer healthcare. I'm also in favor of raising the minimum wage. I also align more closely with the Green Party on my Values but can't vote that way because Republicans and a First past the post election system. I also disagree with them on intellectual property, I don't believe in IP and think the patent system should be abolished. Pirate party. So in reality i'm a Green Pirate that votes Democratic because that's the only way to shut down the GOP.

Don't you think we pay enough in taxes?

I'm a student looking for work right now so the only way I'm helping tax wise is paying for alcohol.
StepDad2 · 36-40, M
Those who don't pay taxes should not be speaking of raising taxes. Just saying.

Once I am though I'll still say the same thing. Also I see the effects cuts are having and I have a right to an opinion.

I vote republican but I do not agree with their platform on abortion or gay marriage. But I learned a very long time ago that being against something and trying to stop it won't stop it so the left's scare tactics do not work on me.

@thatscottishguy: lol...It's my conscious that prevents me from voting democrat. I rather like my constitutional rights and I aim to keep them. I'll do anything to keep those totalitarians out of power.

Higher taxes? Why?

@GunSmoke9: See my reply to stepdad2.

@thatscottishguy: A better idea is to reduce spending.
thatscottishguy · 26-30, M
That would be helping the Tories fuck people over.
I disagree with my party's position on so-called "sanctuary cities" and illegal immigration. While it annoys me when the descendants of European immigrants get high and mighty about others choosing to immigrate here, I do accept that since the country has established sovereign borders and has immigration laws they should be followed. If they're unfair to some groups they should be changed. But they shouldn't be blatantly ignored. That's unfair to people who are going through legal channels and having to wait as a result.

It depends on if we're talking about Corbyn or actual Labour.

I disagree with all of them, which is one of the reasons I don't vote.
thatscottishguy · 26-30, M
Do you disagree with all? Or have you just given up listening to them?
FeetAreFantastic · 41-45, M
@thatscottishguy: Maybe the latter.
