Classical Liberalism

Strongly agree

No, manufacturers and dealers should only be held liable for negligence

Classical liberalism would generally agree with this statement, as it acknowledges the importance of individual responsibility while still holding businesses accountable for their actions when they are negligent. This aligns with the classical liberal belief in limited government intervention in the market and the importance of individual liberty and responsibility.

Agree

No

Classical liberalism would generally support the idea that businesses should not be held liable for the actions of individuals who misuse their products. This is because classical liberals believe in individual responsibility and limited government intervention in the market. However, the score is not at the extreme end of agreement because classical liberals may still support some level of accountability for businesses that engage in negligent or harmful practices.

Neutral

Yes, as long as the losing party pays all legal fees, it’s our constitutional right to sue anyone for any reason

This answer is somewhat neutral from a classical liberal perspective. While classical liberalism supports individual rights, including the right to sue, it also emphasizes individual responsibility and limited government intervention in the market. The idea of the losing party paying all legal fees may be seen as a deterrent to frivolous lawsuits, but it does not directly address the issue of whether businesses should be held liable for the actions of individuals who misuse their products.

Disagree

Yes, but only dealers

Classical liberalism would likely lean towards disagreement with this statement, as it still holds businesses responsible for the actions of individuals who misuse their products. However, the focus on dealers rather than manufacturers may be seen as a more targeted approach to accountability, which could be more palatable to classical liberals who believe in limited government intervention in the market. The score is not at the extreme end of disagreement because classical liberals may still support some level of accountability for businesses that engage in negligent or harmful practices.

Disagree

Yes

Classical liberalism emphasizes individual liberty, limited government, and free markets. Allowing victims of gun violence to sue firearms dealers and manufacturers would likely be seen as an infringement on the rights of businesses and individuals to engage in commerce. However, classical liberals may not be entirely opposed to holding businesses accountable for their actions, so the score is not at the extreme end of disagreement.

Strongly disagree

Yes, any business should be held liable if the primary use of its product is for illegal activity

Classical liberalism would likely disagree with this statement, as it implies that businesses should be held responsible for the actions of individuals who misuse their products. This goes against the principles of individual responsibility and limited government intervention in the market that are central to classical liberalism. The score is not at the extreme end of disagreement because classical liberals may still support some level of accountability for businesses that engage in negligent or harmful practices.
