Very strongly agree

No, this is a waste of time and money

They would argue that the focus should be on addressing the root causes of poverty and inequality, rather than policing the behavior of welfare recipients.

Agree

No, only if they have a criminal history related to drug abuse

Neutral

Yes, test anyone receiving money from the government including employees and politicians

While this answer may appeal to some social democrats as a way to ensure fairness and accountability, it is not directly related to the core principles of social democracy. Some may see it as a distraction from the more important issues of addressing poverty and inequality.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and immediately terminate benefits for anyone testing positive

Social democrats would likely view the immediate termination of benefits for those testing positive for drugs as punitive and counterproductive.

Regardless, we should end all social welfare programs
