I am a centrist. Why am I wrong?

I don't like political parties.One God is enough, one Bible, one Constitution. If God is not bound by political ideology, why should I be? I have bveliefs on both sides, and reject the political binary. Honest question: Why can't we have free healthcare and religious liberty?

Unless by "free healthcare" you mean you can pray to God to be healed and not rely on the medical profession, then you need to have some say in the political binary. You already have religious liberty, no one is telling you that you can't practice your faith unless you try to impede on others and demand they follow yours.

We HAVE religious liberty. MANY in these religions want to take "liberty" away from the rest of U.S.

Free health care? You mean you want U.S. to be like most other industrialized countries?? WE can't afford it, most of our tax money goes to the rich ... who "trickle down on U.S". In ither countries tax money PAYS for health care .. it is NOT "free", it's an investment ALL people pay for ... some Americans don't like paying for "other people's health care"! As long as they feel that way we'll NEVER have it!

What did I say that was communistic? Just asking, not being mean...

The answer is, NO. I hate communism. I'm for democratic socialism, like Bernie, but not quite as radically. I just want it to be as it was before Reagan, (with improvements that we grow to accept as we see what we have been doing wrong.) I lived through the 40's, 50's, 60's,70's ... ALL better than now, and improving every year. Today we have reversed that. I am far from a "boy", and FARTHER from a communist!

We already have freedom from religion. No one with half a brain cares if you are an atheist. I don't think Trump goes far enough with Christian rights. 2 Chronicles 7:14 will tell you what I believe on God and government. Text found here: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2+chronicles+7:14+&version;=KJV Sir or ma'am, we need Jesus in our collective and individual lives.

No you're not wrong.

You are what you are and you should never apologise or seek approval for your views or chosen lifestyle.

Thanks, love, that means a lot to me.........................................................................................

You aren't wrong. You just have no party to actually get anything done with. So be Conservative and vote for the closer of the two to common sense. The Abolitionists during Lincoln's day were Republican, per say, but did ally with them because it was the only way to get ANY of the things they wanted and believed in.
