Perhaps we should do away with the age restrictions on marriage and use testing to determine whether the couple has the maturity to marry.

Just a shot in the dark.

One of the many things I advocate in education reform is getting rid of standardized tests. It's sets too many restrictions on what they need to learn since, to most schools, the test scores is all that matters so they only teach what is going to be on the test and how to pass it instead of focusing on teaching the whole entire subject. I cannot tell you how many times my teachers have said "lets skip that part it won't be on the test"

And in multiple tier classes (Pre-Calc/Calc and the like) one doesn't prepare you for the next, only the test

-No state involvement in marriage
-Not sure what your talking about by "Social Reforms" If you mean the welfare state then reduce it or dismantle it. Entitlements are inherently unsustainable. Safety nets are ok as long as they're temporary, limited and sustainable.
-Strong military to protect against possible threats. We don't need to invade every country ruled by a murdering dictator and stay there for a decade. Some intervention is called for from time to time though.
-Abortion is indistinguishable from murder
-Should be reasonable to immigrate to a country legally but no immigration policy makes sense if the border or immigration laws aren't enforced, meaning no amnesty for illegals.
-Taxes should be as low as possible, the rates as flat as possible, and little to no loopholes or deductions. I would say 15% is fine, no higher than 20.
-Public schools should be converted to charter schools(government finance but privately run) and vouchers if students want to go to private schools. Instead of throwing more money at public schools that end up in the hands of corrupt union officials, streamline the system so the money we already put into it is more effective. so it favors teachers and students, not pinkie pieistrators and union bosses. more money=/=better schools

I got nothin but high taxation. That's a good thing for me!

- Everybody should be allowed to engage in it.
- Should be weighted more towards the young than the old, instead of vice versa like it is today. They're meant to help you in life, not let you coast through it.
- Necessary for the security of a nation, and, in the right hands, a tool for expanding freedom.
- Legal. Most people are going to have kids. Let them choose when.
- No restrictions on people who haven't committed major crimes.
- Low taxes, but still progressive.
- Should get the largest share of the budget, along with justice (police, judges etc.), and be subject to at least once-a-decade major overhauls to keep up with new developments.
