On Budget & Economy: Get rid of the Federal Reserve and the IRS

Get rid of the Federal Reserve. These people are destroying our economy and total collapse is not far off. We need to take this out of the hands of a private corporation who has no incentive to do right by the American people. I will work to end the Federal Reserve.
End the IRS. Taxation without representation was why we had the war with the British King. We have elected representatives but they don't represent us. They should not be rewarded for not doing their jobs. Cut off the flow of funds and they will stop running for office. There are other ways of fairly taxing that are less intrusive. I will work to repeal or reduce the federal income tax.

On Crime: Eliminate the police state we now live in

SWAT teams should not be used routinely. Innocent people are being killed by police because they got the wrong house and burst into a home in the middle of the night with a SWAT Team. Grandma thought it was burglars and tried to scare them off with her old nonworking pistol and she was killed. The stories are horrible. I will work to reduce and eliminate the police state we now live in. Source: 2014 Senate campaign website www.SharonHansenForUSSenate.org Nov 20, 2013

On Homeland Security: Get rid of FISA, the NSA, the NDAA, and the TSA

Stop all the spying on innocent American citizens. This pretty much goes along with cutting the waste. This paranoia of our government is costing the taxpayer billions and billions of dollars. It's unaffordable, it's a waste of money, and it's not productive. The NDAA and NSA need to go. I will work to repeal all the spying programs on US citizens.
Secret Court needs to go. These people are allowed to change any policy they want. They are costing us money and they are not elected. It's just another set of unjust people that we are paying to rip off the taxpayer. I will work to defund the "secret" court.
The TSA needs to go. We are being forced to submit to dangerous x-rays, and a personal pat down where some agents go overboard. How do we know these aren't pedophiles patting down our children? This is totally unnecessary. The airlines can do their own security. I will work to get rid of the expensive, intrusive, and ineffective TSA.

On War & Peace: Wars benefit the wealthy

Every war the US has been involved with has been largely due the big banks that need their coffers replenished regularly. Our most promising and brave young men and women have been killed needlessly in wars since the beginning of the US. I have no desire to get rich off the lost lives of our military men and women. There are countries who never go to war. They are for the most part happy and prosperous. I will not vote to send our young men and women into combat for the benefit of the wealthy.

On War & Peace: No foreign aid to Iran to prevent developing nukes

On foreign aid headed to Iran from the United States: I am 100% totally against sending bribe money to Iran to keep them from developing a nuclear weapon. I would consider lifting sanctions which would stand to benefit the people of Iran rather than lining the pockets of their leaders. Financial aid rarely goes to the people of any country. It is kept by the officials of that country to extend their personal wealth and power. Our leaders are not leaders. They are crooks that seem to have no clue as to how to handle foreign relations. Opening trade with Iran would be more beneficial to the Iranians and the American people than sending more money to a country that despises us, no matter the intentions. We owe it to the future of our children and grandchildren to keep American money in America except in very rare circumstances. I don't trust that it will be temporary and will be reversed. Our government has shown us in the past that they rarely if ever, reverse anything. Source: 2014 Senate campaign website www.SharonHansenForUSSenate.org Nov 20, 2013
