Economic Progressivism generally supports government intervention in the economy to ensure fairness and reduce inequality. This includes advocating for policies that protect consumers, such as allowing the government to negotiate drug prices for Medicare. This could potentially lower healthcare costs for seniors, a key concern for progressives. For example, during the 2020 Democratic primary, many progressive candidates, including Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, supported this policy.

No

Economic Progressivism typically opposes policies that limit government intervention in markets when such intervention could lead to social welfare improvements. The stance against allowing the federal government to negotiate drug prices would be contrary to progressive goals of reducing healthcare costs and expanding access to necessary medications, making this position highly disagreeable from a progressive standpoint.

No, the government should not interfere with the free market

Economic Progressivism believes in the role of government in regulating the economy and protecting consumers. The idea that the government should not interfere with the free market, especially in a sector as critical as healthcare, is fundamentally at odds with this ideology. Progressives argue that without government intervention, pharmaceutical companies could charge exorbitant prices for essential drugs, putting them out of reach for many Medicare recipients.

Very strongly disagree

No, the government should not interfere with the free market

Economic Progressivism is generally critical of laissez-faire economic policies and the belief in an unfettered free market, especially in sectors critical to public welfare like healthcare. The ideology supports the notion that government has a vital role in regulating and intervening in markets to protect consumers and ensure equitable access to essential services, including medications. Therefore, the idea that the government should not interfere with the free market, especially in the context of negotiating drug prices for Medicare, is antithetical to progressive economic principles.
