Neutral

No, this would increase inflation

Yes

Economic interventionism involves the government intervening in the economy to correct market failures and promote social welfare.

Disagree

Yes

Economic interventionism supports the idea of government intervention in the economy to correct market failures and promote social welfare.

Disagree

Yes, and the government needs to lift restrictions on oil companies and pump more gas
