EPA protections - I’m not sure specifically to which protections you are referring, but I can say restricting anything to the point where it is impractical or impossible to sustain does not work until a viable alternative is available.

Abortion - there is no right. No one has a right to kill an innocent human being.

Patriot Act and the Prism Program - I agree with you on this one although Democrats didn’t exactly fight either one and extend state surveillance to healthcare and finances.

Shoot to kill someone you think is robbing your neighbor’s house - this is a new one to me, but I like the idea if you determine the person is actually robbing your neighbor’s house.

Healthcare - this is not a right. Everyone’s health is their own responsibility. Everyone gets sick and everyone dies. Some people have more health issues than others. It isn’t fair - it is just the way it is.

Unemployment - this is not a right either. Bad things happen. Plan for it as best you can - make your own unemployment fund and grow it over time.

Crime rates - crime rates are highest nationally in progressive cities and in states with the most restrictive gun regulations and laws.
