It's all the spending quite frankly that keeps me away.
I don't want my government spending all that money. I want it to live within its means like I do and pay off its debts like I did.
The Democrat platform doesn't stand for this. It wants to do more more more. "Everything can be solved if we just had another government program."
More regulations, more hoops, more government.
I've seen what more government looks like. As a medical software developer, I had to wade through around 5000 pages of legalese to ensure our medical providers met the requirements of Meaningful Use EHR as well as the Affordable Care Act. Thousands of labor hours and hundreds of thousands of dollars later and we FINALLY became compliant. I'd like less of that quite frankly... But at the same time, I don't want LGBT rights to be run over by the other political monstrosity.
Again.. for someone in the center who is truly independent of both parties hard lines, there's no party solution to us that doesn't offend some major part of us.
