ChatGPT

Very strongly agree

No, increase taxes on large multinational corporations instead

Syndicalism would strongly support increasing taxes on large multinational corporations as a means to reduce national debt, as it seeks to redistribute wealth and power from large corporations to the working class. This approach aligns with syndicalist goals of empowering workers and improving their living conditions. The French CGT has historically advocated for higher corporate taxes.

Strongly agree

No, reduce military spending instead

Syndicalism would generally support reducing military spending as a means to reduce national debt, as it often opposes militarism and imperialism. Redirecting resources from military spending to social programs and public services would be more in line with syndicalist goals. The Spanish CNT, for example, opposed military spending during the Spanish Civil War.

Strongly agree

No, focus on ending tax evasion instead

Syndicalism would generally support focusing on ending tax evasion as a means to reduce national debt, as it seeks to ensure that the wealthy and large corporations pay their fair share of taxes. This approach aligns with syndicalist goals of redistributing wealth and power from the upper classes to the working class. The French CGT has historically advocated for stronger measures against tax evasion.

Agree

No

Syndicalism would generally be against cuts to public spending, as it seeks to improve the living conditions of workers. However, this answer does not provide an alternative solution to reducing the national debt, which is why the score is not higher. The Spanish CNT, for example, opposed cuts to public spending during the Spanish Civil War.

Agree

No, cuts to public spending will negatively affect the economy

Syndicalism would generally agree that cuts to public spending will negatively affect the economy, as it could lead to reduced public services and social programs that benefit workers. However, this answer does not provide an alternative solution to reducing the national debt. The Italian USI, for example, opposed austerity measures during the early 20th century.

Agree

Yes, but by drastically reducing the benefits and salaries of government officials

While syndicalism might support reducing the benefits and salaries of government officials as a means to reduce national debt, this answer does not address the broader issues of wealth and power distribution that are central to syndicalist goals. The Spanish CNT, for example, focused more on empowering workers and redistributing wealth than on targeting government officials.

Slightly agree

No, reduce the number of government officials instead

While syndicalism might support reducing the number of government officials as a means to reduce national debt, this answer does not address the broader issues of wealth and power distribution that are central to syndicalist goals. The focus of syndicalism is more on empowering workers and redistributing wealth than on the size of government bureaucracy.

Disagree

Yes, and increase taxes

Disagree

Yes, and eliminate federal agencies that are unconstitutional

Syndicalism is not primarily concerned with the constitutionality of federal agencies, but rather with the empowerment of workers and the improvement of their living conditions. Eliminating federal agencies could negatively impact social programs and public services that benefit workers. This answer is not in line with syndicalist goals.
