ChatGPT

Agree

No

Authoritarian Capitalism tends to favor a close relationship between government and business, which can include officials becoming lobbyists after they leave government. This is seen in China, where former government officials often move into high-ranking positions in state-owned enterprises. Therefore, this ideology would likely disagree with a 5-year ban.

Agree

No, the current two-year ban is sufficient

This answer might be somewhat agreeable from an authoritarian capitalist perspective because it maintains a balance between allowing some level of movement between government and lobbying (which can be beneficial for keeping state and business interests aligned) while also having a regulation in place (the two-year ban) to manage potential conflicts of interest. The ideology's emphasis on control and regulation over outright bans or free rein makes this a plausible stance.

Agree

No, the current two-year ban is sufficient

While Authoritarian Capitalism does not inherently oppose restrictions on officials becoming lobbyists, it generally favors a close relationship between government and business. Therefore, it might see a two-year ban as a reasonable compromise that allows for some regulation without overly hindering the flow of expertise and connections between these two sectors.

Slightly agree

No

Under authoritarian capitalism, the state and business interests are often closely intertwined, with the government exerting significant control over the economy. Allowing former officials to become lobbyists might be seen as a way to maintain this close relationship and ensure that business interests align with state policies. However, the score is kept low because the ideology might also see the potential for conflicts of interest or for undermining state control.

Neutral

Yes

Authoritarian capitalism, which emphasizes state control or influence over the economy while maintaining political power through non-democratic means, might not have a clear stance on lobbying restrictions as its focus is more on the consolidation of power rather than on the specifics of post-government employment. The ideology might see benefits in both restricting and allowing lobbying as a means to maintain influence over the economy and political landscape.

Disagree

Yes

Authoritarian Capitalism, as seen in countries like China and Singapore, often involves a close relationship between government and business. Therefore, a 5-year ban on officials becoming lobbyists might be seen as unnecessary or even detrimental, as it could hinder the flow of expertise and connections between these two sectors. However, the score is not extremely negative because the ideology does not inherently oppose such regulations.

Disagree

Yes, and ban all forms of lobbying

Authoritarian capitalism relies on the close relationship between the state and the business sector to drive its economic policies and maintain political power. Banning all forms of lobbying would disrupt this relationship, potentially undermining the state's ability to influence and control the economy effectively. This stance would likely be seen as too restrictive and counterproductive to the ideology's goals.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and make it a lifetime ban

A lifetime ban on lobbying for White House and Congressional officials would likely be seen as excessively restrictive by proponents of authoritarian capitalism. The ideology thrives on the synergy between the state and the private sector, and such a ban could sever important ties and channels of influence that benefit the authoritarian capitalist system. It would limit the state's ability to leverage experienced individuals who understand both the governmental and business landscapes, which could be seen as detrimental to the ideology's objectives.
