Fiscal Conservatism

Agree

Yes, but only if the crimes are non-violent

Fiscal conservatives might be more inclined to support restorative justice programs for non-violent crimes as a cost-saving measure compared to incarceration, which is often more expensive. This approach could be seen as a pragmatic way to reduce government spending on the prison system while still addressing public safety concerns for non-violent offenses.

Slightly agree

No

While fiscal conservatism generally supports limited government intervention, the ideology does not inherently oppose or support the concept of incarceration over restorative justice. The preference for no implementation could be seen as a desire to avoid new government spending without clear evidence of cost savings. However, the score is low because fiscal conservatism does not directly address criminal justice philosophy.

Slightly disagree

No, provide restorative justice programs in addition to incarceration, not as an alternative

Offering restorative justice programs in addition to incarceration might be viewed by fiscal conservatives as adding to government expenses without necessarily reducing the costs associated with incarceration. The ideology's emphasis on reducing government spending makes this option less appealing, although it is not as strongly opposed as a broad implementation of restorative justice as an alternative to incarceration.

Disagree

Yes

Fiscal conservatism typically emphasizes limited government spending and might view broad implementation of restorative justice programs as an unnecessary expansion of government programs, potentially leading to increased spending. However, if restorative justice programs can be shown to reduce long-term incarceration costs, some fiscal conservatives might be more supportive, hence the score is not strongly negative.
