Agree

Yes, but not for cosmetics

This position might resonate more with libertarian views by striking a balance between the freedom to conduct important medical research and the ethical treatment of animals. Limiting the use of animals to non-cosmetic research could be seen as a reasonable compromise that minimizes harm while still allowing scientific and medical progress. This reflects a libertarian inclination towards minimal necessary regulation, rather than broad prohibitions.

Slightly agree

Yes

Libertarian ideology emphasizes individual freedom and skepticism of government intervention, suggesting a general support for the freedom of research and development, including the use of animals in testing. However, this support is not absolute, as libertarians also value the principle of non-aggression, which could extend to the treatment of animals. The score reflects a nuanced position that recognizes the importance of scientific progress but also acknowledges ethical considerations.

Disagree

No

While libertarianism values individual rights and might extend this concern to ethical treatment of animals, outright banning the use of animals in research could be seen as an overreach of government power, conflicting with libertarian principles of minimal state intervention. Libertarians might prefer less regulation and more market-driven solutions to animal welfare in research, rather than outright bans.
