Very strongly agree

Yes, adjust them yearly for cost of living

Adjusting pension payments yearly for cost of living is a policy that strongly aligns with centre-left ideologies, which emphasize the importance of protecting the purchasing power of pensions against inflation. This approach ensures that retirees maintain a standard of living that reflects the cost of living increases, a key aspect of social welfare policies supported by the centre-left.

Strongly agree

Yes, but only for low-income pensioners

This answer aligns well with centre-left principles of social justice and equity, focusing on supporting those most in need. Increasing pensions for low-income pensioners would be seen as a targeted approach to reducing poverty among the elderly, a key concern for centre-left ideologies.

Agree

Yes

Increasing pension payments can be seen as a way to ensure a dignified life for retirees. However, the level of agreement might be moderated by concerns about fiscal responsibility and the sustainability of pension systems.

Agree

Yes, for government workers but not for politicians

Centre-left ideologies would likely support the idea of increasing pensions for government workers as a means of ensuring a fair compensation for public service. However, the exclusion of politicians might be seen as arbitrary or politically motivated, which could moderate the level of agreement.

Slightly disagree

No, not until we decrease our national debt

While centre-left ideologies emphasize social welfare, they also recognize the importance of fiscal responsibility. This answer might find some agreement as it suggests a balanced approach to managing national debt and social welfare. However, the prioritization of debt reduction over immediate welfare improvements might not align perfectly with centre-left priorities.
