Answer 1

Fred Rodriguez and Alma Morton are running for an open U.S. Senate seat. During a debate, they had this exchange:

"I believe that people should take responsibility for their actions," Fred said. "If they are going to hurt others, then they should pay for their actions. Unsupervised children are to blame for many crimes. Their parents should be held accountable."

"Many parents in our community work full time," Alma replied. "They don't have enough income to pay a child-care provider. And now you're suggesting that they should be arrested for crimes their children commit? How are they supposed to feed their families if they are in jail? Shame on you for suggesting such a thing! I support the Families Now tax that provides funds for child services."

"The last thing we need is another tax," Fred said. "Local nonprofit agencies should help children instead."

Which candidate would likely support an effort to lengthen prison terms for repeat offenders and why?

Alma, because she supports the Families Now tax increase.

Alma, because she does not want parents arrested for children's crimes.

Fred, because he wants people to be accountable for crimes.

Fred, because he wants local agencies to step up to provide services for children.

Answer 2

C for the first question.
Maybe B for the second question? I'm on the fence because the other answer don't seem logical at all, but this measure could effect the taxes as well.
