1. Some balance of gun rights
certainly should be permitted to bear arms during an insurrection at the Capitol, for instance.

Shouldn’t be that easy for a kid to have access to one.

2. Woman’s right to choose
the right to choose MURDER?
[/quote]
Depends on what how late the pregnancy is. Obviously, should not be the first choice of birth control.

3. Some partial social safety net heavily incentivized for people to take some personal responsibility
fair enough. does that include discharge in bankruptcy for student loans?
[/quote]
We should look at why students need get into trouble with student loans to begin with. Why is an education at state school so much, especially now some hybrid amount of in person and remote learning can be achieved.
It shouldn’t be that easy to qualify for credit cards and other unsecure debt.

4. A balanced social policy that addresses some glaring social inequity, not something ad-nausem
huh?
[/quote]
Anyone who continuously talk about reparations is fringy left. It was the past, stop apologizing for something that happened decades ago. Also, punish the cops that did bad things. Stop lumping all cops into the same category. Throw bad cops in jail.

5. Some reasonable middle fiscal policy
Too late. The billionaires won.

6. Some in between amount of regulation meant to protect the environment and some amount of regulation meant to protect US businesses.

We should consider building water pipelines, putting more research into water desalinization, alternative energy, solar farms, etc. States should provide each state what they are capable of.
For example, the water drought and Colorado water shortage is going to far impact states like Arizona, Nevada, than CA because of the way those water rights were negotiated plus CA is on the coast with access to the ocean.
Invest in water desalination tech, let CA be a net export of water.. Arizona/Utah/Nevada with there large swatches of desert land can run large solar farms and export electricity to other states….
the Ca bullet train idea is stupid and total waste of money. CA trades water for electricity with other states. Everyone wins.
The Colorado River water rights is an interesting read. It’s been running a deficit, and it’s going to need to be renegotiated. CA isn’t the biggest loser here:
