    Environmental protection = USA too cost prohibitive. Let's move manufacturing jobs overseas to China, India, Africa, and Japan

    Government regulation = throwing the proverbial monkey wrench into a free economy. Let's make jobs wages to cost prohibitive. Let's oursource our white collar jobs to China, India, Africa, and..elsewhere.

    Universal Healthcare = You will be taxed so hard that eventually we will all be forced to suck on the governmental titty. And my health is fine, unless it's life threatening, I don't need a stinkin doctor.

    Civil rights = Political correctness at the expense of US security.
