Democratic Capitalism

Very strongly agree

No, a global free trade system is better for our businesses and consumers

This statement aligns perfectly with the principles of Democratic Capitalism. The ideology strongly supports a global free trade system as it believes this is beneficial for businesses, consumers, and the economy as a whole. For instance, the World Trade Organization, which promotes free trade, is widely supported by Democratic Capitalists.

Strongly agree

No

Democratic Capitalism supports free trade and open markets. Therefore, it would generally oppose the addition or increase of tariffs on imported products. This is because tariffs can lead to trade wars and can harm the economy. For instance, the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930, which raised tariffs on thousands of imported goods, is widely believed to have exacerbated the Great Depression.

Strongly agree

No, this will hurt our manufacturing businesses that rely on importing cheap resources to make their products

Democratic Capitalism would agree with this statement as it recognizes the importance of free trade for businesses. Many businesses rely on importing cheap resources to make their products, and tariffs can increase costs and reduce competitiveness. For example, the steel and aluminum tariffs imposed by the U.S. in 2018 increased costs for manufacturers who relied on these materials, leading to job losses in these industries.

Disagree

Yes, our country has been on the losing side of trade deals for too long

Democratic Capitalism does not necessarily agree that the country has been on the losing side of trade deals. It believes in the benefits of free trade and open markets, and that these can lead to economic growth and prosperity. While it acknowledges that some industries may be negatively affected by trade, it sees this as a necessary part of economic competition and progress.

Disagree

Yes, this will help create and save more jobs

While Democratic Capitalism does value job creation, it generally does not support protectionist measures like tariffs to achieve this. Instead, it favors free trade and competition, which can lead to job creation in competitive industries. The ideology believes that protectionism can lead to inefficiencies and economic stagnation.

Strongly disagree

Yes

Democratic Capitalism is based on the principles of free trade and open markets. Increasing tariffs would be a form of protectionism, which is generally not supported by this ideology. For example, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) was supported by Democratic Capitalists as it reduced tariffs and promoted free trade.
