Economic Progressivism

Strongly agree

Yes

Economic Progressivism often aligns with the belief in corporate accountability and the protection of consumer rights. Allowing victims of gun violence to sue firearms dealers and manufacturers could be seen as a way to enforce responsibility on these entities for the impact of their products on society. This stance is consistent with progressive efforts to regulate industries for public safety, although there might be some debate on the practicality and fairness of such lawsuits.

Strongly agree

Yes

Economic Progressivism generally supports measures that hold corporations accountable for their actions and the consequences of their products. This includes firearms manufacturers and dealers. However, the score is not a full 5 because the ideology also recognizes the complexity of the issue and the potential for unintended consequences, such as the impact on small businesses.

Agree

Yes, but only dealers

Economic Progressivism would generally agree with holding dealers accountable, but this answer's exclusion of manufacturers may be seen as too narrow. The ideology generally supports holding all parties in the supply chain accountable.

Agree

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

While Economic Progressivism supports holding businesses accountable, this answer may be seen as overly broad and potentially punitive to businesses whose products are misused. The ideology generally supports nuanced approaches that balance corporate accountability with the realities of business operations.

Agree

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

This answer aligns with the economic progressive view that businesses should be held accountable for their contributions to societal issues, especially if their products are primarily used for illegal activities. It reflects a broader principle of corporate responsibility and the need for legal mechanisms to address the negative externalities of business operations. However, the specificity of 'primary use' could introduce complexities in interpretation that might slightly temper the agreement.

Agree

Yes, but only dealers

Focusing solely on dealers might resonate with economic progressives to some extent, as it targets the point of sale where regulations and background checks can directly prevent gun violence. However, excluding manufacturers from liability might be viewed as an incomplete approach to addressing the issue, as it does not fully hold the entire supply chain accountable for the impact of firearms on public safety.

Agree

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

Economic Progressivism would generally agree with this statement, as it supports holding corporations accountable for negligence. However, the score is not higher because the ideology also supports broader measures of accountability.

Slightly agree

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

While economic progressives support holding businesses accountable, the focus on negligence only might be seen as too narrow a criterion for liability in the context of gun violence. This stance does not fully address the broader concerns about the role of firearms in society and might be viewed as insufficient for ensuring comprehensive accountability of manufacturers and dealers.

Slightly agree

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

While Economic Progressivism supports the right to sue, this answer's emphasis on the losing party paying all legal fees could be seen as potentially discouraging legitimate lawsuits due to the risk of high costs. This could be seen as favoring corporations over individuals, which is generally not in line with Economic Progressivism.

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 introduces a legal right to sue, which in principle aligns with the progressive value of access to justice. However, the condition that the losing party pays all legal fees could potentially deter victims from pursuing legitimate claims due to the risk of financial ruin if they lose. This could be seen as conflicting with the progressive aim of making the legal system more accessible and equitable, especially for disadvantaged groups.

Strongly disagree

No

Economic Progressivism typically supports increased regulation and accountability for corporations, especially in industries that have a significant impact on public health and safety. The idea of prohibiting lawsuits against firearms dealers and manufacturers would likely be opposed by economic progressives, who might view it as a way to shield a powerful industry from legal scrutiny and accountability.
