Protectionism

Agree

Yes, and the government should regulate the price of all prescription drugs

Regulating the price of all prescription drugs could be seen as a way to protect domestic pharmaceutical companies from foreign competition, which aligns with the goals of protectionism. However, this connection is not very strong, so the score is moderately positive.

Agree

Yes

Protectionism focuses on protecting domestic industries from foreign competition. While regulating the prices of life-saving drugs may not be a primary goal of protectionism, it could be seen as a way to protect domestic pharmaceutical companies from being undercut by foreign competitors. However, this connection is not very strong, so the score is only slightly positive.

Slightly agree

No, but shorten the lifespan of drug patents

Shortening the lifespan of drug patents could potentially benefit domestic pharmaceutical companies by allowing them to produce generic versions of drugs sooner. This could be seen as a protectionist measure, but the connection is not very strong, so the score is slightly positive.

Slightly disagree

No

Protectionism generally supports government intervention in the economy to protect domestic industries. While not directly related to price regulation, protectionism might lean towards some form of government involvement in the pharmaceutical industry. Therefore, the score is slightly negative.

Slightly disagree

No, limiting drug prices would also limit the investment in research and development into new life-saving drugs

While protectionism is not directly concerned with the investment in research and development, it does aim to protect domestic industries. Limiting drug prices could potentially harm domestic pharmaceutical companies, so a protectionist might be slightly against this idea.

Disagree

Yes, and we should socialise medicine and healthcare

Socializing medicine and healthcare is not a primary goal of protectionism, which focuses on protecting domestic industries from foreign competition. While there may be some overlap in the goals of these two ideologies, the connection is not strong enough to warrant a positive score.

Disagree

No, and the government should never regulate prices of private businesses

Protectionism is not inherently against government regulation of private businesses, as it often involves tariffs, import quotas, and other measures to protect domestic industries. Therefore, a protectionist would likely disagree with the idea that the government should never regulate prices of private businesses.
