  • The Great Energion Political Rountable – Question 4

    Question 4I’m your moderator, Henry Neufeld, owner of Energion Publications. It’s worthwhile noting that I’m not a neutral party; I just play one on the internet for this roundtable!
    I was thinking of moving away from the economy, but considering that others seem to have different priorities than I do I’m going to stick with it for the moment. I struggled with a way to create this question so that a ~1,000 word answer would be reasonable.
    What are the most critical elements of an economic plan for the United States, and how should they be balanced? For example, consider deficit reduction, managing the size of government, creating jobs, maintaining social services, maintaining military strength, supporting current overseas military operations, reducing spending, and increasing taxes. Which candidate has a plan closest to what you prefer?
    If anyone has time, consider mentioning your candidates for Senate and the House. How do they stack up on this issue?
    My expectation is that you will trim this question according to your priorities, as I realize I’ve left enough options to generate a book, but any more limited question might put the entire topic into territory that one or another of you regard as irrelevant. So trim what you prefer.
    I want to encourage people to send me questions. I will see them if they are posted as comments on this post, or e-mailed to pubs@energion.com using subject “Roundtable.”
    I have also added a general landing page for the roundtable: The Great Energion Political Roundtable. This post will contain links to all the question and answer posts so you can track back through what people have said.
    Let me also remind everyone that anyone can participate. Just add a link to your post in a comment to the question or answer posts for the appropriate question.

  • The Great Energion Political Roundtable

    RoundtableNow that we have things moving with the roundtable, we need a central location where people can find links to everything involved. So this is that post.
    1. What is the roundtable?
    It’s a blog discussing between four Energion authors and one of our blog reviewers regarding politics, leading up to the U. S. presidential election, November 6, 2012. Each week, I will post a question here on Energion.net. The participants will write their responses and publish them between Monday and Wednesday. They can then interact as they wish.
    Everyone is welcome to participate through comments, tweets, or your own blog posts. If you post answers to the questions on your blog, please track back, or provide a link in the comments. I will keep up with linking the main participants, but I won’t be able to keep up with everyone who may post on the roundtable.
    2. Who are the participants?

    The participants are balanced between left and right politically and all participants are Christians. It includes Democrats, Republicans, and Independents. It should provide us with a variety of responses to read, examine, and discuss.
    Here are links to the questions and answers. This section will be expanded as the roundtable continues.
