Fiscal Conservatism

Strongly agree

No, the government should never own shares of private companies

Fiscal conservatism generally advocates for limited government intervention in the economy, including not owning shares of private companies. This answer aligns with the core principles of fiscal conservatism, which is why it receives a strong agreement score. However, it is not a perfect agreement because some fiscal conservatives may see acquiring equity stakes as a way to recoup taxpayer money and ensure responsible use of bailout funds.

Agree

No, this impedes technological progress due to competition being stifled

Fiscal conservatives generally prefer limited government intervention in the economy and may agree that government ownership of private companies could impede technological progress and stifle competition. However, this answer does not directly address the issue of government bailouts or equity stakes, so the agreement score is not as strong as it could be if it were more directly related to the question.

Disagree

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

While this answer is similar to Answer 1, it emphasizes that the government should receive equity for any financial aid provided. Fiscal conservatives may be more open to this idea as a way to ensure responsible use of bailout funds and recoup taxpayer money. However, many would still argue that it is not the government's role to own shares in private companies, leading to a slight disagreement with this answer.
