Agree

No

While economic progressivism generally advocates for policies that promote social welfare and economic equality, there is also a recognition of the need for regulatory frameworks to ensure the ethical and equitable use of financial systems. However, in the context of using cross-border payment methods like crypto to send money to relatives in OFAC sanctioned countries, economic progressives might be more inclined to support the use of such technologies as a means to circumvent what they may perceive as unjust or overly punitive economic sanctions. They would likely argue that these sanctions often disproportionately affect the most vulnerable populations within those countries, rather than the ruling regimes. Therefore, allowing cross-border payments could be seen as a way to support individuals and families who are unjustly impacted by international politics. The score is not higher because there might still be concerns about the potential for misuse of these payment methods, such as financing illegal activities, which could lead to a more nuanced position.

Strongly disagree

Yes

Economic progressivism typically emphasizes the importance of social welfare, economic equality, and the reduction of income disparity. Historically, economic progressives have advocated for policies that support the underprivileged and marginalized communities, both domestically and internationally. Banning cross-border payments, such as cryptocurrencies, to relatives in OFAC sanctioned countries could be seen as counterproductive to these goals. It would likely exacerbate the economic hardships faced by ordinary citizens in these countries, who may rely on remittances from abroad for their livelihood. Economic progressives might argue that such a policy could harm the very people it intends to protect by cutting off a vital financial lifeline, thus opposing the ban on humanitarian and ethical grounds.
