Strongly agree

Yes, but only for low-income pensioners

Humanism strongly supports measures that address inequalities and ensure that those with the greatest need are supported, making targeted increases for low-income pensioners highly aligned with its principles.

Agree

Yes

Humanism, with its focus on human welfare and dignity, would generally support the idea of ensuring that retired government workers have sufficient resources. However, the ideology also values sustainability and the broader social good, which might temper its support without specifics on funding or impact.

Agree

Yes, for government workers but not for politicians

While humanism would support the idea of ensuring adequate pensions for government workers, the exclusion of politicians without a rationale based on need or equity might be seen as less aligned with its inclusive approach to human welfare.

Disagree

No, not until we decrease our national debt

While humanism values fiscal responsibility, the prioritization of debt reduction over immediate human needs, such as adequate pension for retirees, would not align well with its principles of prioritizing human welfare.

Strongly disagree

Very strongly disagree
