Agree

No, and the government should not interfere with the free market

Individualism as an ideology emphasizes the moral worth of the individual and prefers minimal government intervention in personal and economic affairs. This answer aligns with the individualist preference for a free market system where the government's role is limited. However, the score is not a full 5 because individualism also values competition and the prevention of monopolies that could harm consumer choice and innovation.

Agree

No, we already have sufficient anti-trust laws in place to prevent monopolies

While individualism supports the idea of a free market without government interference, it also recognizes the need for some laws to prevent monopolies that can harm competition. However, the emphasis is on minimal regulation, so the agreement is not as strong as with answers that advocate for no interference at all.

Agree

No

Disagree

Yes, if the merged corporation would have more than 50% of the market share

While individualism does recognize the potential harm of monopolies, this answer implies a readiness for government intervention based on a specific market share threshold. Individualists would likely view such a policy as overly prescriptive and prefer more nuanced or market-driven solutions.
