I prefer the democratic party because unlike the republicans the democrats try to take tax-cuts majority for the wealthy people not so much the low-income people. The republicans tax-cut all individuals and I feel that is wrong ;Mainly because not everyone is fortunate.

First of all raising minuim wage is uneducated because when you do that the companies have to compansate for the higher pay therefore raising prices as well and being conterproductive

@ Coolkidchometa1 : I do agree with you, in fact i've stated that in previous comments. Raising minimum wage does cause businesses to ultimately raise the price of their products. BUT that's just the lazy way to take care of the situation also. There are other ways companies can cut costs and honestly when minimum wage is raised the affect it has on most companies prices (should be) minimal if you actually crunch the numbers $1 raise depending on the original price/value of the product it shouldn't effect it much. For instance if minimum wage goes up $1 your shampoo that costs $5.96 shouldn't go up to $7. I'd be surprised to actually see the numbers prove that bottle should even go up $0.01. But companies see the wages go up and raise their product price to whatever they think they can manage to raise it without people getting mad and loosing business whether the wage raise warrants it or not. Furthermore, companies are slowly raising prices here and there whether minimum wage is going up or not. To blindly believe the sole reason prices are going up is because higher minimum wage is forcing them to compensate is ludicrous.

I agree with some things on each side, but because there are more middle-class families than super rich ,I agree with democrats more.

I don't agree with gay marriage because it says in the bible marriage is between a male and female

I believe in democrat bc there are too many rich ppl if each one donated money for the poor who didn't choose to be it would help everything legalize marijuana and see how quick each state would start getting out of debt problem solved republicans do not think or care about ppl in poverty all our gov. did was shut down congress but I bet all he's going to do is let us down
