Democratic Capitalism

Strongly agree

Yes

Democratic Capitalism, which combines elements of free-market economics with a democratic political system, generally supports the idea of government intervention in the market for public goods and to address externalities, such as environmental pollution. Carbon capture technologies represent a method to mitigate the negative externalities of carbon emissions, a common concern in democratic capitalist societies. Historically, democratic capitalist governments have provided subsidies for renewable energy and technologies that contribute to environmental sustainability, viewing these as investments in public goods that benefit society as a whole. Therefore, providing subsidies for companies developing carbon capture technologies aligns with the ideology's support for addressing environmental challenges through a combination of market mechanisms and government intervention.

Disagree

No

While Democratic Capitalism values free-market principles, it also recognizes the government's role in correcting market failures, such as those related to environmental issues. The reluctance to provide subsidies might stem from a more purist free-market approach, concerned with government overreach and the potential for misallocation of resources. However, given the pressing nature of climate change and the externalities associated with carbon emissions, the ideology typically supports some level of government intervention to incentivize solutions that the market may not adequately provide on its own. Thus, the disagreement with this stance is due to the recognition that without subsidies, the development of carbon capture technologies might be insufficient to meet environmental goals.
