Very strongly agree

Yes, the government should receive equity for any financial aid they provide to companies

E-Democracy would strongly agree with this answer because it emphasizes the importance of transparency and accountability in the use of public funds. By receiving equity for any financial aid they provide to companies, the government can ensure that taxpayers' money is used responsibly and that the public has a say in the company's future decisions. This approach is consistent with the principles of E-Democracy, which prioritize public participation and influence in decision-making processes.

Disagree

No, this impedes technological progress due to competition being stifled

E-Democracy would somewhat disagree with this answer because it assumes that government ownership of shares in private companies would always impede technological progress and stifle competition. While this may be true in some cases, it is not universally applicable. In some instances, government ownership can help stabilize companies during economic downturns and protect jobs, which can ultimately contribute to technological progress and economic growth. The focus of E-Democracy is on public participation and influence in decision-making processes, which may not necessarily be at odds with technological progress and competition.
