John_Doe80004's JournalMy questions to some of the 2016 cnadidates
posted to rand pauls facebook page:
i'm not too confident i will get any response as they are tough questions that most presidential hopefuls don't want to put hard answers to.
i will post the same to clinton's, jebbers, sanders, and trump's pages as well.

"here is a few questions for you.
i do not see a contact link or a way to create a new topic on your page so i will type the question here.
where do you stand on entitlements as a whole? just between medicare and medicaid the health care industry is propped up by 65% probably on the economy as a whole when you account for all the entitlement spending from Workers Comp to UI, SSDI, SSI, and all the anti poverty programs the entire economy is probably propped up by 80% and this figure is just an educated guess, what will you do to replace that lost economic activity and keep that huge loss from severely crashing our economy?
i am disabled suffering from numerous mental and physical health issues requiring regular doctors visits, medications and therapies to remain stable. i can and work part time and do work part time in the nursing home where my girlfriend is a registered nurse who i also worry about if entitlements were suddenly severely abruptly cut or eliminated. my mom is an Occupational Therapist.
all of us in the healthcare field and all directly and/or indirectly dependent on entitlement spending in one way or another. how do you intend to keep people in the healthcare field employed when entitlements get severely cut or eliminated?
how do you intend to address people in my circumstances, suffering from severe mental illness( schizoaffective disorder) , and multiple physical (diabetes, complex sleep apnea) disabilities?
how do you intend to handle high unemployment part time low wage no benefits jobs?
how about obscene CEO pay?
on taxes how will you address corporations such as GE who not only pay zero in taxes but get a rebate check from the government all while shipping some 57,000 jobs overseas?
how about the H1B visa people like what almost happened at Disney before bad publicity made them change their mind?
how do you intend to keep people like my girlfriend (52), and mom (61) employed post entitlement cuts and/or elimination?
how will you address mass immigrant migration and reform / get immigration under control?
how will you handle the over militarization of our local police?
how will you address the failing infrastructure, bridges, roads, rails?
how about education, how will you go about investing in our youth?
how about lost jobs due to increasing automation and robotization which is slated to hit even the long haul trucking and rail fields in the coming years?
how about these poor one sided free trade deals that allow other countries and private corporations sue sovereign governments in an international tribunal run by corporate lawyers?
how about these exercises by the us military on us soil such as jade helm 15? and many government agencies buying up millions of hollow point ammunition which according to many is to be used on us citizens during the coming martial law?
these are just a few of the many questions myself and many people i talk to have.
How does the USA compare to France?
i saw a video somewhere on the internet about the Great Brain Drain and mass exodus of business and wealthy from France, how does the USA compare to France as far as keeping the wealthy and business from leaving en masse like has happened in France?
How do we compare to Greece?
how About Puerto Rico?
is this the united states future?
are we headed down the same path?
seems there is a great collapse going on starting with these smaller countries and to a limited extent the bigger ones.
How do we maintain a balance between government spending (infrastructure, entitlements, education, military, etc?) and private sector spending while maintaining a healthy sustainable economy?
