Answer from Mark W. Stroberg:

Instead of asking "How can Californians get their 'fair share' of federal resources?" we should be asking, "How can we minimize the amount of California's resources that are required to be shipped to Washington, DC." Getting a bigger piece of an ever-shrinking pie is not a wise course of action. There is wisdom in allowing the economic pie to grow without restrictions, and allowing people to make their own decisions about how to spend their piece of it. If elected I will work to minimize the transfer of wealth from states to the federal government, so that it is not required to get a "fair share" of the transfer, minus the 30% handling fee.

Answer from Mark W. Stroberg:

If elected I will work to eliminate all intervention in the affairs of other nations by the U.S. government. This means U.S. military power would be used only in the event of a direct attack on U.S. soil by a foreign power, to repel the invaders at our borders. I will work to bring all American troops home from foreign lands. In addition to military non-intervention, I will work to eliminate all government to government foreign aid, so that there will never again be hostility toward America for siding with one nation over another.

Answer from Mark W. Stroberg:

By eliminating all federal government activities not authorized by the U.S. Constitution, we can save over one trillion dollars per year in federal government expenses. This would allow eliminating the federal income tax and repealing the 16th Amendment which authorizes it. Every department in the federal government will be a target for either elimination or reduction of their budget.
