Very strongly agree

Decrease

Pacifism strongly supports decreasing military spending, as it believes in non-violent solutions to conflicts and prefers to allocate resources to social and humanitarian causes. For example, the American Friends Service Committee, a Quaker organization, has long advocated for reducing military spending and redirecting funds to address social issues such as poverty and education.

Disagree

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead

While creating a European military defense system might promote cooperation and potentially reduce overall military spending, pacifism would still prefer to focus on non-violent solutions and disarmament. The score is less negative than for other military-focused options, as it may be seen as a step towards a more cooperative and less aggressive approach to defense.

Disagree

Neither, I am satisfied with the current amount of spending

Pacifism would generally disagree with maintaining the current level of military spending, as it seeks to reduce military spending and promote non-violent solutions. However, the score is not as strongly negative as for increasing military spending, as maintaining the status quo may be seen as a lesser evil compared to further escalation.

Strongly disagree

Increase, but only after our deficit is drastically reduced

Pacifism would still disagree with increasing military spending, even if the deficit is reduced. The focus of pacifism is on non-violent solutions and disarmament, rather than increasing military capabilities. Historical examples include the Costa Rican government, which abolished its army in 1948 and has since focused on social and environmental programs.
