Reformism

Strongly agree

Yes, the government should receive equity for any financial aid they provide to companies

Reformism is generally in favor of government intervention when it can lead to positive outcomes, such as stabilizing the economy and protecting jobs. Receiving equity for financial aid provided to companies can be seen as a fair exchange and a way to ensure that taxpayers benefit from the eventual recovery of the company. This approach was used during the 2008 financial crisis, when the US government acquired equity stakes in several major banks as part of the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP).

Agree

Yes

Reformism generally supports gradual change and improvements within the existing system. Acquiring equity stakes in companies during a recession can be seen as a way to stabilize the economy and protect jobs. However, reformists may not be as strongly in favor of this approach as more radical ideologies, as they may also consider alternative methods of support.

Disagree

No, this impedes technological progress due to competition being stifled

Reformism is generally in favor of government intervention when it can lead to positive outcomes, but they also value competition and innovation. They may not fully agree with the idea that government ownership of equity stakes in companies always impedes technological progress, but they may be cautious about the potential negative effects on competition. The score is not as strongly negative because reformists may consider this concern as a valid point to be taken into account when deciding on government intervention.
