Agree

Yes

Market Fundamentalism is primarily concerned with economic freedom and less government intervention. While it doesn't directly address the issue of politicians with criminal records, it generally supports individual freedom and second chances, which could extend to a politician's right to run for office after a conviction. However, this is not a core tenet of the ideology, hence the moderate score.

Slightly agree

No

While market fundamentalism primarily concerns itself with economic policies and might not directly address the issue of politicians' criminal records, there is an implicit understanding that trust and integrity are crucial for the functioning of free markets. A politician with a criminal record could undermine public trust, potentially harming market efficiency. However, the ideology's emphasis on individual freedom and minimal government intervention might resist outright bans based on past behavior.

Slightly agree

Yes, as long as it was not a felony, violent, financial, or sexual crime

While Market Fundamentalism supports individual freedom and second chances, it also values integrity and honesty, especially in economic matters. Therefore, it might be less supportive of allowing individuals who have committed serious crimes, such as felonies or financial crimes, to run for office. However, this is not a core tenet of the ideology, hence the low score.

Slightly agree

Yes, as long as it was not a felony, violent, financial, or sexual crime

This answer might find some support within market fundamentalism due to its attempt to balance the need for integrity in office with the principles of individual freedom and minimal government intervention. By excluding only certain types of crimes, it suggests a nuanced approach that recognizes the varying degrees of impact a crime might have on a politician's ability to serve. However, the ideology's primary focus on economic policies rather than governance might make this a less central concern.

Neutral

Yes, as long as the crime was not committed while in office

This stance might resonate somewhat with market fundamentalists due to its nuanced approach, recognizing the importance of context and the nature of the crime. It aligns with the ideology's emphasis on individual responsibility and the potential for redemption, as long as the crime did not directly impact their official duties. However, it still involves a level of government intervention in determining eligibility for office, which might be seen as contrary to the principles of minimal government.

Slightly disagree

No, and disallow politicians that are under investigation for a crime

Market fundamentalism might view the preemptive disqualification of politicians under investigation as an unnecessary government intervention, potentially infringing on individual rights and the presumption of innocence until proven guilty. The ideology's focus on minimal government might lean against such preemptive measures, despite recognizing the importance of integrity in market transactions.
