Party support: Libertarian

John Schick is a Libertarian politician who has run for office in Indiana several times. He is a self-described "fiscal conservative and social liberal." (My response: Yeah, I had thought that Libertarians are basically/generally social liberals and fiscal conservatives. I'd say I am a fiscal conservative with some fiscal liberal ideas sprinkled on top and a social conservative with some social liberal ideas sprinkled on top, if that makes any sense).

Support for lower taxes and less government spending: Schick is a fiscal conservative who believes that the government should be smaller and less intrusive in people's lives. He has supported tax cuts for businesses and individuals, and he has opposed government spending on programs such as social welfare and healthcare. (My response: Lower taxes and less government spending would be great, although I've heard the US has one of the lowest tax rates among developed countries (not sure if that's true). As for government intervention in cases like welfare and healthcare, I think the government should still somewhat be there for us -- not too much and not too little).

Support for individual liberty: Schick is a social liberal who believes in individual liberty and limited government. He has supported same-sex marriage and abortion rights, and he has opposed government restrictions on gun ownership. (My response: I don't support most social liberal ideas because I think some of it has gone too far, but I do support universal background check and buyback (if it helps deal with and stop shootings/criminals).

Support for free trade: Schick is a supporter of free trade and believes that it is beneficial to the economy. He has opposed tariffs and other trade barriers. (My response: I'm not the best expert in trade and tariffs but his views on free trade seem to make sense so far).

Support for environmental protection: Schick is a supporter of environmental protection and believes that the government should take action to address climate change. He has supported policies such as carbon pricing and renewable energy. (My response: 100%).

Support for criminal justice reform: Schick is a supporter of criminal justice reform and believes that the system is too punitive. He has supported policies such as reducing the use of incarceration and legalizing marijuana. (My response: If it works, then okay. There will always be some criminals that can be rehabilitated and some criminals that cannot. As for legalizing marijuana, I hear it would be good for the economy, but the thought of it being recreational just doesn't make sense).
