[QUOTE="Lotta Booze, post: 564143, member: 4471"] From my experience it seems that this is the exception rather than the rule. Specifically with climate change at least. I think many on the right refuse to agree on the science and that's where a lot of the problem lies. Many take the view that "[U]If[/U] the earth is getting warmer then it's not due to human activity", which is not a rational position to hold. That is the large hurdle that needs to be overcome in order to discuss policy on how to treat it. But the 2 sides can't seem to agree on the problem. That's step 1. Then you can discuss policy. I am curious to hear what your policy recommendations would be though. As for healthcare and reducing poverty I'd really like to hear some good plans from the right because I haven't heard any. Trump ran on repealing and replacing Obamacare and has failed to do so. He recently started talking about it again but is punting until after the election. And reducing poverty? Definitely haven't heard any policy whatsoever from the right other than maybe some vague "rising tides lift all boats" rhetoric. I'm open to listening to policy to address problems but I don't hear anything serious thus far. Mostly just "LESS REGULATION!" applied to everything. [/QUOTE]
