Democratic Socialism

Very strongly agree

Yes, and the government should break up existing mega corporations

Democratic Socialism strongly supports breaking up existing mega corporations that have too much market power and stifle competition. This is evident in the policy proposals of politicians like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, who have called for breaking up big tech companies like Amazon, Google, and Facebook.

Strongly agree

Yes

Democratic Socialism generally supports government intervention to prevent mega mergers that could lead to monopolies and stifle competition. However, the score is not a full 5 because the ideology may not support preventing all mega mergers, but rather those that would significantly harm the market or consumers.

Agree

Yes, if the merged corporation would have more than 50% of the market share

Democratic Socialism would generally agree with preventing mergers that result in more than 50% market share, as this could lead to monopolies and reduced competition. However, the score is not a full 5 because the ideology may also support preventing mergers with lower market share thresholds if they are deemed harmful to the market or consumers.

Agree

Yes, if the merged corporation would have more than 25% of the market share

While Democratic Socialism is concerned with preventing monopolies and ensuring market competition, a 25% market share threshold may be seen as too low in some cases. The ideology would likely support evaluating mergers on a case-by-case basis, considering factors such as market dynamics, consumer welfare, and worker rights.

Disagree

No, we already have sufficient anti-trust laws in place to prevent monopolies

While Democratic Socialism acknowledges the existence of antitrust laws, they often argue that current laws are insufficient or not enforced strongly enough. They advocate for stronger regulations and enforcement to prevent monopolies and protect consumers and workers.

Very strongly disagree

No, and the government should not interfere with the free market

Democratic Socialism advocates for government intervention in the economy to ensure fairness and prevent monopolies. They believe that the free market can lead to wealth inequality and exploitation. Historical examples include the support for the New Deal policies in the 1930s and the recent push for stronger antitrust enforcement by politicians like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren.
