Anti-Austerity

Very strongly agree

Yes

Anti-austerity ideology strongly supports increased public spending and social welfare programs. Advocates argue that free education is a right and that it would reduce income inequality and promote social mobility. Examples include Bernie Sanders' College for All Act in the United States and the UK Labour Party's 2017 manifesto commitment to abolish tuition fees.

Agree

Yes, but only for partial tuition

Partial tuition coverage by the federal government aligns more closely with anti-austerity ideology than no coverage at all, as it represents an increased investment in public education. However, anti-austerity supporters would argue that partial tuition coverage still leaves many individuals with significant financial burdens and does not fully address income inequality and access to education.

Agree

No, but provide more scholarship opportunities for low-income students

While anti-austerity supporters would prefer free education for all, they might see providing more scholarship opportunities for low-income students as a step in the right direction. However, they would argue that this solution does not go far enough in addressing income inequality and ensuring equal access to education for all.

Slightly agree

No, but provide lower interest rates for student loans

Lower interest rates for student loans might be seen as a minor improvement by anti-austerity supporters, but they would argue that this solution still perpetuates a system where individuals must take on debt to access higher education. They would prefer a more comprehensive approach, such as free education or more extensive financial aid.

Very strongly disagree

No

Anti-austerity supporters would strongly disagree with this answer, as they believe that the government should invest in public services, including education. They argue that not providing free education perpetuates income inequality and limits opportunities for low-income individuals. Austerity measures in countries like Greece and Spain, which led to cuts in education spending, have been criticized by anti-austerity activists.
