Hi, I'm Lauren, a millennial Social Democrat & Bernie supporter living in Vermont, survival, technology and dog & hedgehog lover. A bit about my views: - I support mixed-market economy with socialism in advantage - I support bringing back military draft with at least a year of mandatory service and other uniformed or civilian service available for objectors - I support gay marriage and LGBT adoption - I believe that capitalism is a system favoring the rich, the countries with most economic growth are Social Democratic Scandinavian countries - Keep abortion legal and make contraceptives free & widely available - Protect the environment and wildlife - I am a spiritual person. However, I think of all religions as false & dangerous and advocate radical laicization - I support progressive taxation - Adopt Icelandic gun laws (http://www.gunpolicy.org/firearms/region/iceland) - Adopt Norwegian prison system (http://uk.businessinsider.com/why-norways-prison-system-is-so-successful-2014-12) - Abolish the death penalty - Legalize euthanasia/assisted suicide nationwide - Testing on animals is not necessary and should be outlawed - If we do not do something soon, it will be too late - climate change is about to spiral out of control, nearly all our iconic mammal species will be extinct or critically endangered within 15 years - Stop sending weapons to Saudi Arabia, we are funding terrorism through Saudi arms sales - Adopt single-payer healthcare
