18) it goes too far
19) DISAGREE

I don't know the other 3.

1. Male
2. 41
3. White
4. Pagan agnostic buddhist (raised in Catholic schools, that is)
5. Never enough, but getting by
6. c
7. Michigan
8. 1994 Explorer
9. Democratic (I'll never vote Republican again, made that mistake once)
10. Libertarian socialist
11. No
12. Yes
13. Decrease
14. Ambivalent
15. Increase
16. Do not support
17. Support
18. Agree within reason

Rest. No idea what they are.

3. a. White/Caucasian/not of Hispanic origin
4. h. none / atheist (nonreligious) (raised c. Catholic)
5. c. $70k-$99k
6. a. high school or less (currently a senior)
7. State of residence: Missouri.
8. car that I drive: Saturn SL
9. I generally vote: a. Democratic (This November I plan to vote for a Democrat for the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives but probably third-party candidates for state senate and house.)
10. a. pure liberal (Why is there no moderate choice? I'm a moderate liberal.)
11. prayer in public schools: No!
12. gays in the miltary: yes
13. defense spending: keep the same (If it weren't for September 11, I'd say lower it.)
14. spending on welfare/guarantee good standard of living: same
15. government regulation of business: increase (Bush's (FCC's) deregulation of, for example, DSL and and cable Internet access hurts consumers when there is no real competition.)
16. situation in Iraq: do not support war (currently)
17. bilingual education programs: support
18. American with Disabilities Act: agree

To be honest, I had to look up what the last three were about (I could kind of guess what the Women's Health Office Act and Urban Sprawl and Smart Growth Study Act would be about), but I could not find any information about a "Durant-Davis Mass Transit Act." Looking in the U.S. House and Senate listings, I see no Durant in Congress right now.

10. I consider myself:
    Don't know.  Rather moderate.
11. prayer in public schools:
    If they want to allot time for prayer and let you do as you wish with that time then I'm fine.  However, it should not be done out loud (i.e. over the intercom.)

    same - but have tougher restrictions to stop freeloading

    decrease - Tighten enforcement of current laws (Enron).  Don't interfere with technology and such (DMCA, DRM).

    war as last resort
