It is only acceptable to use proportionate force to defend your property from criminals.
Our nation has a glorious history.
In the right circumstances, cutting taxes can increase government revenue.
It's more important to punish criminals than to rehabilitate them.
Everyone should have the right to trial by jury.
Workers in the public sector should be paid as much as those doing similar jobs in private industry.
