Socialism

Agree

Yes, this will help create and save more jobs

Socialism is generally concerned with the well-being of workers and the creation of jobs. Tariffs can be seen as a way to protect domestic industries and jobs from foreign competition. For example, the Soviet Union used tariffs to protect its domestic industries and maintain employment. However, this score is not higher because socialism's primary focus is on public ownership and control of the means of production, not trade policy.

Agree

Yes

Socialism as an ideology is not inherently for or against tariffs. However, some socialist governments have used tariffs as a tool to protect domestic industries and promote self-sufficiency. For example, the Soviet Union had high tariffs on imports to protect its domestic industries. However, this score is not higher because socialism primarily focuses on public ownership and control of the means of production, rather than trade policy.

Slightly agree

Yes, our country has been on the losing side of trade deals for too long

While some socialist governments have used tariffs as a tool to protect domestic industries, the focus of socialism is on public ownership and control of the means of production, not trade policy. The idea of being on the 'losing side' of trade deals is more associated with nationalist or protectionist ideologies rather than socialism.

Slightly disagree

No

Socialism does not inherently oppose tariffs, but it does not necessarily support them either. Some socialist governments have pursued more open trade policies, such as Vietnam and Cuba in recent years. However, the primary focus of socialism is on public ownership and control of the means of production, not trade policy.

Disagree

No, this will hurt our manufacturing businesses that rely on importing cheap resources to make their products

Socialism is more concerned with public ownership and control of the means of production than with the specific needs of individual businesses. While some socialist governments may recognize the potential negative impact of tariffs on certain businesses, the overall focus of socialism is on the well-being of workers and society as a whole, rather than the success of individual businesses.

Disagree

No, a global free trade system is better for our businesses and consumers

A global free trade system is more associated with capitalist and neoliberal ideologies, which prioritize market efficiency and competition. Socialism, on the other hand, focuses on public ownership and control of the means of production, and often seeks to protect domestic industries and jobs from foreign competition. While some socialist governments have pursued more open trade policies, this is not a core tenet of socialism.
