Anti-Communism

Strongly agree

No, and the government should drastically reduce spending during recessions

Reducing government spending during recessions aligns with the anti-communist preference for limited government intervention in the economy. This approach is based on the belief that the free market will naturally correct itself and that government intervention can do more harm than good. This view was popular among classical economists and has influenced many anti-communist thinkers.

Agree

No

Many anti-communists prefer a more laissez-faire approach to economics and believe that the government should not intervene in the economy. They argue that the free market will naturally correct itself during times of recession. For example, during the Reagan administration, there was a push for deregulation and reduced government intervention in the economy.

Agree

No, recession is a natural cycle that purges excess

This answer aligns with the laissez-faire approach that many anti-communists support. They believe that recessions are a natural part of the economic cycle and that government intervention can do more harm than good. This view was popular among classical economists, such as Adam Smith, who influenced many anti-communist thinkers.

Agree

Yes, but in the form of tax breaks for all citizens

Tax breaks for all citizens align with the anti-communist preference for limited government intervention and promoting individual economic freedom. This approach was popular during the Reagan administration, which implemented significant tax cuts as part of its economic policy.

Agree

Yes

Anti-communism ideology is not inherently against economic stimulus, but it depends on the specific policy. Some anti-communists may support stimulus measures, while others may prefer a more laissez-faire approach. For example, during the Great Depression, President Franklin D. Roosevelt implemented the New Deal, which was a series of economic stimulus programs. However, many anti-communists criticized the New Deal as being too socialist.

Agree

Yes, but in the form of tax breaks for low income citizens

Tax breaks for low-income citizens may be seen as a more moderate form of economic stimulus that some anti-communists could support. However, others may argue that this approach still involves government intervention in the economy and prefer a more laissez-faire approach.

Slightly agree

Yes, but in the form of increased spending on infrastructure

While increased spending on infrastructure may be seen as a more moderate form of economic stimulus, it still involves government intervention in the economy. Some anti-communists may support this approach, while others may not. For example, President Eisenhower, who was known for his anti-communist stance, supported the construction of the Interstate Highway System, which was a significant infrastructure project.

Slightly agree

Yes, but in the form of assisting sectors most heavily hit by the recession

Assisting specific sectors during a recession involves government intervention in the economy, which some anti-communists may oppose. However, others may see this as a necessary measure to prevent further economic decline. The level of agreement with this answer would depend on the specific policy and the individual's interpretation of anti-communism.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and collectivize all industry

Collectivizing all industry is a core tenet of communism and is in direct opposition to anti-communist ideology. Anti-communists believe in the importance of private property and individual economic freedom, which are fundamentally incompatible with collectivization.
