Nationalism

Strongly agree

Increase

Nationalism often emphasizes the importance of a strong military to protect and assert the nation's interests. Historical examples include the rise of German nationalism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, which led to increased military spending and ultimately contributed to the outbreak of World War I. However, the score is not a full 5 because some nationalist movements may prioritize other aspects of national development over military spending.

Agree

Increase, but only after our deficit is drastically reduced

This answer aligns with the nationalist emphasis on a strong military, but also takes into account the importance of fiscal responsibility. Some nationalist movements may prioritize reducing the deficit before increasing military spending, as seen in the United States with the Tea Party movement, which advocated for both a strong military and fiscal responsibility. The score is a 3 because this answer still supports increasing military spending, but with a caveat.

Slightly agree

Neither, I am satisfied with the current amount of spending

Some nationalist movements may be satisfied with the current level of military spending if they believe it is sufficient to protect the nation's interests and sovereignty. However, this answer does not fully align with the general nationalist emphasis on a strong military, so the score is only a 1.

Disagree

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead

Nationalism generally emphasizes the importance of national sovereignty and self-reliance, which may conflict with the idea of creating a European military defense system. This answer suggests a more supranational approach, which is not typically aligned with nationalist ideology. However, the score is not a full -5 because there may be some nationalist movements that see regional cooperation as a means to strengthen their own nation's military capabilities.

Strongly disagree

Decrease

Nationalism generally does not support decreasing military spending, as a strong military is often seen as essential for protecting the nation's sovereignty and interests. However, the score is not a full -5 because there may be some nationalist movements that prioritize other aspects of national development over military spending, or that advocate for a more isolationist approach.
