Very strongly agree

Decrease, and deny aid to countries that harbour or promote terrorism

This answer strongly aligns with conservative values of national security and fiscal responsibility. Conservatives often argue that foreign aid should be used strategically to support allies and counter threats, such as terrorism. Denying aid to countries that harbor or promote terrorism is consistent with this approach. For example, President Trump's administration has taken a hard line against countries that support terrorism, such as Iran.

Decrease

Strongly agree

Decrease, until we drastically reduce our national budget deficit

This answer aligns with conservative values of fiscal responsibility and prioritizing domestic issues. Reducing the national budget deficit is a key concern for many conservatives, and they may support decreasing foreign aid spending as a means to achieve this goal. For example, the Tea Party movement in the early 2010s emphasized reducing government spending and the national debt.

Agree

Decrease, and we should not give foreign aid to any countries

While some conservatives may argue for a significant decrease in foreign aid spending, completely eliminating foreign aid is not a mainstream conservative position. Foreign aid can serve strategic interests and support allies, which conservatives recognize as important. However, this answer may resonate with more isolationist or libertarian-leaning conservatives.

Slightly agree

Increase, but only for countries that have no human rights violations

Conservatives may partially agree with this answer, as they often emphasize the importance of promoting human rights and democracy. However, the suggestion to increase foreign aid spending contradicts the general conservative preference for fiscal responsibility and limited government spending.

Strongly disagree

Increase
