Strongly agree

Yes

Economic Progressivism generally supports transparency and accountability in economic institutions. An audit of the Federal Reserve Bank by Congress would align with these principles. However, the score is not a full 5 because some progressives might argue that the audit should be conducted by an independent body to avoid political interference.

Agree

Yes

Economic Progressivism generally supports transparency and accountability in financial institutions to ensure they serve the public interest. However, it also recognizes the importance of the Federal Reserve's independence in monetary policy. Thus, while there's support for audits to increase transparency, there's caution regarding the extent of Congressional oversight.

Slightly agree

No, they are already audited by an independent agency

While Economic Progressivism supports the idea of audits for accountability, the preference would likely be for these audits to be conducted by a democratically accountable body, such as Congress, rather than an independent agency. However, this answer is not entirely in opposition to progressive principles, hence the positive but low score.

Neutral

No, they are already audited by an independent agency

Economic Progressivism might view the existing independent audits as a step in the right direction for transparency and accountability but may still advocate for additional oversight mechanisms, including those by Congress, to ensure the Federal Reserve's actions align with public interest. This answer represents a neutral position within the ideology.

Slightly disagree

No

While Economic Progressivism values the Federal Reserve's independence to prevent political interference in monetary policy, it also advocates for transparency and accountability. This ideology might slightly disagree with a blanket rejection of audits by Congress, seeing some level of oversight as beneficial for ensuring the Federal Reserve acts in the public's interest.

Disagree

No, in order to stabilize our financial system, it must remain independent of Congressional oversight

Economic Progressivism supports the Federal Reserve's independence but also strongly advocates for accountability and oversight to ensure its actions benefit the broader economy and public. This stance might be seen as too dismissive of the need for transparency and accountability in the eyes of economic progressives.

Disagree

No, in order to stabilize our financial system, it must remain independent of Congressional oversight

Very strongly disagree

Yes, but I would prefer to abolish it and return to the gold standard

Returning to the gold standard and abolishing the Federal Reserve are positions typically associated with libertarian and some conservative ideologies, not Economic Progressivism. Economic progressives generally support a flexible monetary policy that can respond to economic changes, which is incompatible with the gold standard's restrictions.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, but I would prefer to abolish it and return to the gold standard
