Candidates need to address real issues

Wouldn't it be refreshing and forthcoming for the candidates running for the U.S. Senate to address the real issues, ie: 'grow the economy with good paying jobs.”
How about being specific and let us know what you would do. Would or could either candidate live on $7.25 an hour?
Other issues such as women's health deserve honest replies. If one actually believes and states what their position is on the issue the answers should be obvious.
The world is in discord and another era of evil has presented itself. Our country would be wise to concentrate and do what we can accomplish by working together.
