About Me:	My name is Amedexyius. I'm a Russian quasi-socialist that has an open mind, willing to discuss anything anyone would bring to the table with me. I'm interested in Foreign Affairs and plan to join my nation's Department of Foreign Affairs after achieving the proper age to apply.
Activities:	Political and economic discussions, cars, and computers. I'm also into foreign languages, I speak 4 languages, Russian, English, Portuguese, and Spanish (In order from which I learned).
Beliefs:	My economic beliefs are quasi-socialist, meaning I believe in a heavily moderated market economy. This is so GDP growth isn't suppressed and economic downfalls cannot happen due to simultaneous market withdrawals. I do believe in certain ounces of censorship and government influence in every day lives. We should trust the government, not hate it. I believe in security over rights and that the illusion of god given rights is a gateway to a decline of society's progressions and rise. My religious beliefs are non-existent. I do not believe in a God or the existence of one and I usually keep that to myself. I steer away from those conversations as they never have an ending where one side actually agrees or defects to the other. The most powerful subjective beliefs I am forced to hold is passive nihilism. There is no point to life, nor will there ever be.
Books:	The Harry Potter Series. I'm not a heavy reader.
Movies:	Any of Quentin Tarantino's, Martin Scorsese's films, or of James Cameron.
Music:	Classical, classical rock, and American/Canadian 70's-80's. I won't go into details.
Quotes:	"A majority of beliefs in something do not change it's truth." ~Anon ""Sometimes it is necessary to be lonely in order to prove that you are right." ~Putin "He who has a why to live can bear almost any how." ~Nietzsche "I am a fool with a heart but no brains, and you are a fool with brains but no heart; and we're both unhappy, and we both suffer." ~Dostoyevsky "The more the universe seems comprehensible, the more it seems pointless." ~Weinberg "It is true that liberty is precious; so precious that it must be carefully rationed." ~Lenin "It matters not the language a piece is spoken in, music speaks universally." ~Anon
Sports Teams:	Russian National Soccer Team. Virtually nothing else, I only pay attention to sports during Eurocup and FIFA World.
TV Shows:	Futarama, American Dad, South Park, Family Guy, Arrested Development, & Prison Break.

THBT Citizens on the Terrorist Screening Database should not be barred from purchasing firearms

I would like to thank Amedexyius for agreeing to debate this topic with me. PrefaceSince the recent mass shootings at Sandy Hook, Pulse, and many others, there has been an influx in demands to increase gun control measures. One of these ideas is barring those on the Terrorist Screening Datatabase (also known as the no-fly list, or the terrorist watch list) from purchasing firearms. While I agree with a number of measures that have been proposed, this idea is not one of them.&nbs...

Taking in thousands of refugees from middle eastern countries puts American citizens in danger.

Taking in thousands of Syrian refugees would place American citizens in unnecessary danger of terrorist attack such as the ones seen in many European nations. Terror attacks also entails taking over sections of the country and implementing Sharia Law where they are now considered "No go zones"...

Disagree: 0.00%

Agree: 0.00%
•	Abortion	Pro
•	Affirmative Action	Con
•	Animal Rights	ProComments The only issue where I support animal rights in is cosmetology and make up testing. It is completely immoral and subjectively useless. The use of most of the industry for cosmetology is for vanity, and abusing animals for desire and not necessity is repugnant. As for immoral herding and farming conditions, I have no quarrel.
•	Barack Obama	ProComments A great president of the United States. The American people should appreciate him far more than he is appreciated now. His internal policies in the United States are beneficial but should be more firm. He is paving a way for leftist ideals, something I support. I don't support his foreign policy of economic sanctions, diplomacy should always be used, but I greatly appreciate his reluctance for any military intervention. A historic president for contemporary history.
•	Border Fence	Con
•	Capitalism	ConComments The definition of capitalism is a completely unregulated economy that is used for personal gain. Therefore, I only believe in VERY moderated capitalism, the border between capitalism and socialism, my own ideological belief which is shared by nations such as Canada, Scandinavia, Germany and Russia - Quasi Socialism.
•	Civil Unions	Und
•	Death Penalty	ProComments Only under the most dire and extreme cases such as serial killers or rapists where their mental states are so chaotic that it would be impossible to repair them through prison or mental illness sentences. They'd have to be put down in the name of order in society.
•	Drug Legalization	ProComments Only natural drugs without being artificially manipulated which can physically alter your body. I support recreational marijuana (which is all natural) although I do not support synthetic marijuana. krokodil, cocaine, heroin, etc (which are artificially manipulated). There should be forms of taxation in order to provide a deterrence to the market from exponentially exploding and impacting the nations health like in the tobacco industry.
•	Electoral College	Con
•	Environmental Protection	ProComments There should always be some form of environmental protection, regardless of the industrial impact it brings. No industry should go without some sort of regulation. History and contemporary science has shown that a booming industry will come at the cost of lethal and destructive pollution.
•	Estate Tax	Pro
•	European Union	ProComments A unification to preserve economic and political stability among the most advanced nations of Europe. Their communitarian and leftist values are something that can unite Europe for good. Any current problems they face can simply be resolved with any form of legislative action, you don't need to dissolve the EU, as a whole. It has proven, at the toughest moments to be more productive than not.
•	Euthanasia	Pro
•	Federal Reserve	ProComments The United States Federal Government should seize this corrupt private organization in order to form a cleansed Federal Reserve which will prove much more effective if under the control of the United States Government.
•	Flat Tax	Con
•	Free Trade	ProComments Only within a specified region in a treaty of particular nations. This group of nations should be relatively and economically compatible in order to ensure that economic failure does not follow towards the lesser developed countries. Free trade is not global, there needs to be treaties, and these treaties should be restricted to synonymous economic stability.
•	Gay Marriage	ProComments Love is love (Even though I don't believe in love), if those of the same sexual orientation find happiness in one another then let them be. Although, I do believe that simply by the natural laws of reproduction, homosexuality is biologically incompatible. If a nation decides to ban gay marriage by majority rule and perspective, I am alright with that. I don't support criminal charges towards homosexuality or public homosexuality. I do not support, is transsexual bathrooms, third gender options, or gender neutrality. It is absolutely ridiculous and if anything, a symbol if psychosis. I think trans sexual surgeries should be allowed, although their identification cards and forms should be labelled "Undergone Sexual Transformation" and their GAB (Gender At Birth) should never change.
•	Global Warming Exists	Pro
•	Globalization	Pro
•	Gold Standard	ConComments This is incredibly ridiculous. There isn't even enough gold to support the world PPP, and it doesn't work as effective currency stabilizer as thought to be, especially with an ever-changing global economy.
•	Gun Rights	ConComments I believe it should be TOTALLY abolished. It has no place in a modern society, or utopia.
•	Homeschooling	N/OComments If the belief is that no public schools should be allowed and all education should be from the home, then I am Con. That is ridiculous. Parents should have the choice to homeschool but only under serious bureaucratic treatment in order to give parents the guide and filter any false pretenses for homeschooling.
•	Internet Censorship	ProComments I am almost 95% against total speech censorship on the internet. On internet censorship, many of a nation's people do not have a very stable political education. This means the uneducated can be manipulated and indoctrinated into violent movements that prove a threat to peace. Censorship of some regions of the internet would be necessary in order to protect the stability of a nation from it's own people. So, in sum, while I am mostly against it, there should be some censorship in order to prevent national instability from persuasive anarchist and anti-government or anti-peace movements. This censorship should only be used on recognized threats to the public and national security.
•	Iran-Iraq War	ConComments The support for Hussein against Iran was ridiculous. It was supporting the worse of two evils. The new Islamic revolution that swept Iran was a horrible moment (For basic religious liberties), but understandable as the United States used Iran as a proxy through the Shah, an American puppet. Siphoning Persian oil at the expense of the Persian economy, a horrible and immoral move by London and Washington. The US shouldn't have financed either of those countries, as Iraq was the unjust aggressor and Iran had the potential to stop the war earlier if not for American fiscal intervention.
•	Labor Union	ProComments I have no quarrel with Labour Unions in a moderated market economy. I do believe in economies with large government influence, the role of the Labour Unions would be taken up by the government to enforce federal wage and labour laws.
•	Legalized Prostitution	ProComments Legalized prostitution should be heavily moderated and highly taxed as a deterrent to a potential market rising. Legalizing prostitution would save much trouble to the criminal system and put a halt to developed nations trapping themselves into larger crime rates. Prostitution is a possible gateway crime to larger federal offences. Although the practice should not be encouraged as a blossoming 'market'.
•	Medicaid & Medicare	ProComments I only temporarily support it for the moment until the United States realizes that potential and fundamental necessity for a national healthcare system financed by the government like the rest of the developed world.
•	Medical Marijuana	ProComments Recreational marijuana should also be a completely legalized practice. Due to it's other controversial effects on health such as being an influence on operating machinery and clouding judgement, taxation should be a deterrent. Due to it's minimal effects compared to alcohol and tobacco as a consumable substance, it should have the potential to become a market without too much deterrence. Medical marijuana should be a completely legalized due to its proven health benefits.
•	Military Intervention	ConComments Only as an absolute last resort, should it ever be necessary. This is to combat serious global threats that uses violence to advance its agenda. Otherwise, possible diplomatic missions can be used to curb global violence and military intervention.
•	Minimum Wage	ProComments There should be a minimum wage in order for market economies not to abuse its labour force. This minimum wage must correlate with the economic power and stability of the nations it is used in practice. There should also be moderation and economic regulation to prevent inflation from companies attempting to combat federal wage increase.
•	National Health Care	Pro
•	National Retail Sales Tax	ProComments This is not a deterrence to economic stimulus as the sly, manipulative conservatives would have you believe. It is a great income source for a government, and attempting to abolish it would have powerful economic consequences and limit the economic power of the country.
•	Occupy Movement	Pro
•	Progressive Tax	ProComments A progressive tax should be an absolute necessity in order to remove the class gap as much as possible. Especially in economic systems like the United States where much of the nation is privatized. The rich are stronger than the poor, they are not equal.
•	Racial Profiling	N/OComments I don't know too much about the racism in the United States, so I keep no opinion on the subject of American supremacy.
•	Redistribution	Pro
•	Smoking Ban	Con
•	Social Programs	Pro
•	Social Security	Pro
•	Socialism	ProComments I believe that socialism cannot work for a long period of time without a bit of market influence as incentive for growth. This free market although, should be highly moderated, and much of the government should still be if not completely on top of, mostly on top of the industries. There is a name for this ideology - Quasi Socialism.
•	Stimulus Spending	Pro
•	Term Limits	Pro
•	Torture	ProComments It should only be used on proven members of organizations dedicated on civilian killings on a national scale.
•	United Nations	ProComments This global unification alliance is one of the greatest steps mankind has ever taken in order to prevent violent nationalism and undiplomatic events. The UN is a milestone, and while it may be slightly dysfunctional, it works for the betterment of mankind with minimal violence only using diplomacy and international justice to pursue a unified earth.
•	War in Afghanistan	ProComments I only support it because it is the responsibility of the United States to fix the problem they funded by financing the Taliban in the 1980's against the USSR. That financing allowed a temporary power vacuum that was eventually plugged by an even worse radical organization (Taliban) .Otherwise, the United States shouldn't have gotten involved.
•	War on Terror	Con
•	Welfare	Pro
