Hi, i am a brazilian classical liberal/liberal conservative. I'm here to help expand and create new articles about Brazil, his politics, his right-wing and his left-wing. There are many things that need to be reported in this encyclopedia. I will help!
I love America and i stand with Israel!
My conservatism
I looked on the "conservative" page and i took the list of conservative principles that the page displays and here i will tell you that i agree and i disagree.
<poem> Total: 25 I support: 20 I'm against: 5 </poem>
- Limited government and balanced budgets
- Capitalism and free markets
Classroom prayer- It's up to each school, student's religion and faith diversity should be respected.- Respect for human life and prohibition of abortion - Except in cases of proven rape, mother's risk of life and anencephaly.
- Abstinence education
Traditional marriage, not same-sex marriage- I'm a supporter of traditional marriage, but i don't look how the same-sex marriage could be harmful to society. Of course, no religious institution should be forced to marry same-sex people.- The concept of retribution for crimes, including the death penalty for heinous murders proven beyond reasonable doubt.
- Family values, including traditional relationships
and division of labor within the household. - This varies from family to family. - Respect for differences between men and women, boys and girls.
- Laws against pornography - I advocate the destruction of pornography, but i think the government focusing it goes against the principle of limited government (first item in this list). Therefore, there must be some restrictive laws that prohibit the exhibition of pornography in public places or at certain times on television, for example.
- The Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms
- Economic allocative efficiency (as opposed to popular equity)
- Parental control of education (parental rights)
Private medical careand retirement plans - I'm against universal health care system, but i think in the people who cann't afford a health treatment.- Canceling failed social support programs
- No world government - I don't think it ever will exist, and consider this a nonsense and a conspiracy. But anyway, the sovereignty of nations must be radically supported.
Enforcement of current laws regarding immigration- I believe that the current law is too interventionist, i advocates a little more freedom for immigrants.- Respect for our military ... past and present - But shouldn't be an obligation
Rejection of junk science such as evolution and global warming- I consider junk science a silly and ridiculous term. Global warming is a joke, but the evolution is a valid theory and it will not totally against Christian religious principle. I advocate theistic evolutionism.- Minimal taxation
- Federalism (Separation of powers among the National, State and Local governments)
- Favoring states' rights over federal power, while accepting the Constitutional role of the federal government
- A strong national defense
- An Originalist interpretation of the Constitution
- A dedication to the truth, and an ability to seek it
My liberalism
<poem> Total: 51 I support: 9 I'm against: 42 </poem>
In Brazil, liberal refers to classical liberal and libertarian. But here i'm referring to the american term that refers to the left-wing politics. Out of curiosity, after making the above list, i decided to do the same with the "liberal" page, the result is:
