Very strongly agree

No, and the government should never regulate prices of private businesses

This answer aligns strongly with the core principles of capitalism, which emphasize minimal government intervention in the market. Capitalists believe that the market should determine prices based on supply and demand, and that government regulation can lead to inefficiencies and hinder innovation. Historical examples include the deregulation of various industries in the United States during the 1980s, which many capitalists argue led to increased competition and innovation.

Strongly agree

No

Capitalism generally supports the idea that the market should determine prices without government intervention. Proponents argue that competition and consumer choice will lead to better products and services at lower prices. They believe that government regulation can lead to inefficiencies and hinder innovation. For example, the high prices of some life-saving drugs in the United States have been attributed to a lack of competition and market forces.

Agree

No, limiting drug prices would also limit the investment in research and development into new life-saving drugs

This answer aligns with the capitalist belief that government regulation can hinder innovation and investment. Proponents argue that high prices for life-saving drugs are necessary to fund research and development, and that limiting prices would reduce incentives for companies to develop new drugs. However, some capitalists may acknowledge the need for limited regulation in extreme cases, such as life-saving drugs, to prevent price gouging.

Slightly agree

No, but shorten the lifespan of drug patents

While capitalism generally opposes government intervention in the market, some proponents may support shortening the lifespan of drug patents as a way to increase competition and lower prices. This approach would still allow companies to profit from their innovations, but would also encourage the development of generic alternatives more quickly. For example, the Hatch-Waxman Act in the United States was designed to promote the availability of lower-cost generic drugs by shortening the exclusivity period for brand-name drugs.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and we should socialize medicine and healthcare

This answer is strongly opposed to the core principles of capitalism, which emphasize minimal government intervention in the market and private ownership of businesses. Socializing medicine and healthcare would represent a significant expansion of government control over the industry, which capitalists would likely oppose. They argue that such a system would lead to inefficiencies, reduced innovation, and limited consumer choice. Historical examples include the opposition to the Affordable Care Act in the United States by many proponents of capitalism.
