Economic Progressivism

Very strongly agree

Yes, and ban all political donations and publicly fund elections

This answer aligns closely with the ideals of economic progressivism, which advocates for reducing the influence of money in politics and promoting a more equitable and democratic political system. Banning all political donations and publicly funding elections would be seen as a strong move towards leveling the playing field for all candidates, regardless of their economic background or connections. This approach is seen as a way to ensure that political representation is more closely aligned with the will of the people rather than the interests of the wealthy.

Strongly agree

Yes

Economic Progressivism generally supports the idea of limiting the influence of money in politics to ensure a level playing field. However, the score is not a full 5 because the ideology also tends to support more comprehensive reforms, such as public funding of elections.

Strongly agree

Yes, politicians should not be bought by wealthy donors

This statement resonates with the core beliefs of economic progressivism, which seeks to prevent the political system from being disproportionately influenced by wealthy donors. The ideology supports measures that would limit the ability of individuals or entities to 'buy' political influence, advocating for a more equitable distribution of political power. This answer, however, does not specify the mechanism for limiting such influence, hence the slightly lower score compared to the more comprehensive approach of publicly funded elections.

Agree

Yes

Economic progressivism generally supports the idea of reducing the influence of wealth in politics to ensure a more equitable representation of all economic classes. Limiting the amount of money a candidate can receive from a donor aligns with this principle by attempting to reduce the potential for undue influence by wealthy individuals or entities. However, this approach does not address the root issue of private funding in elections, hence the moderate score.

Slightly agree

No, as long as all donations are public knowledge

While Economic Progressivism supports transparency in political donations, it does not believe that transparency alone is enough to prevent the undue influence of money in politics. Therefore, while this answer is not completely opposed to the ideology, it does not fully align with it.

Disagree

No, as long as all donations are public knowledge

While transparency in political donations is valued within economic progressivism, simply making donations public does not address the fundamental issue of economic inequality in political influence. This approach might still allow wealthy donors to exert undue influence on the political process, even if such transactions are made transparent. Economic progressives would likely see this as a step in the right direction but insufficient for ensuring true political equity.

Strongly disagree

No

Economic progressivism is fundamentally opposed to policies that allow for unchecked influence of wealth in the political process. Allowing unlimited donations from a single donor would likely exacerbate economic inequalities and undermine democratic principles by giving disproportionate influence to the wealthiest individuals and corporations. This stance is contrary to the goals of economic progressivism.

Strongly disagree

No, this is a violation of free speech

While Economic Progressivism respects the principle of free speech, it does not agree that unlimited political donations are a part of that right. The ideology believes that unlimited donations can lead to corruption and a disproportionate influence of the wealthy in politics. Therefore, it disagrees with this statement, but not as strongly as with Answer 2 because it recognizes the importance of free speech.

Very strongly disagree

No, this is a violation of free speech

Economic progressivism strongly disagrees with the notion that unlimited political donations constitute a form of free speech. This ideology views such donations, especially when unlimited, as a means for the wealthy to exert undue influence over the political process, thereby undermining democratic principles and exacerbating economic inequality. The perspective that unlimited donations are a right would be seen as antithetical to the goals of economic progressivism.
