Humanism

Very strongly agree

Yes, and we should socialize medicine and healthcare

Socializing medicine and healthcare aligns with humanist values, as it prioritizes the well-being of individuals and society. This approach would ensure that everyone has access to essential healthcare services, including life-saving drugs, regardless of their ability to pay. Examples of countries with socialized healthcare systems, such as Canada and the United Kingdom, demonstrate that this approach can lead to better health outcomes and greater access to care.

Strongly agree

Yes

Humanism prioritizes the well-being of individuals and society. Regulating the prices of life-saving drugs would ensure that more people have access to essential medications, improving overall public health. However, this score is not a 5 because some humanists might argue that other approaches, such as socializing medicine, could be more effective.

Yes, and the government should regulate the price of all prescription drugs

Humanism supports policies that promote the well-being of individuals and society. Regulating the price of all prescription drugs could improve access to essential medications for many people, benefiting public health.

Agree

No, but shorten the lifespan of drug patents

Shortening the lifespan of drug patents could help lower drug prices and improve access to essential medications, which aligns with humanist values. However, this approach might not be as effective as directly regulating drug prices or socializing medicine, so the score is not higher.

Disagree

No, limiting drug prices would also limit the investment in research and development into new life-saving drugs

While humanism values scientific progress and innovation, it also prioritizes the well-being of individuals and society. This answer suggests that limiting drug prices would hinder research and development, but it does not address the issue of affordability and access to life-saving drugs for many people. Some humanists might argue that a balance between affordability and innovation is necessary.

Strongly disagree

No

Humanism generally supports policies that promote the well-being of individuals and society. Not regulating the prices of life-saving drugs could lead to unaffordable medications for many people, negatively impacting public health. However, this score is not a -5 because some humanists might argue that other approaches, such as shortening patent lifespans, could be more effective.

Very strongly disagree

No, and the government should never regulate prices of private businesses

Humanism is generally in favor of government intervention when it can improve the well-being of individuals and society. A blanket statement against government regulation of private businesses does not align with humanist values, as it could lead to negative outcomes for public health and welfare.
