Agree

Yes, but in the form of tax breaks for low income citizens

Tax breaks for low-income citizens could be seen as a targeted measure to support those most in need, which aligns with the ECPM's values of social justice and care for the vulnerable.

Agree

Yes

Agree

Yes, but in the form of tax breaks for all citizens

While the ECPM might support tax breaks as a form of economic stimulus, their focus would likely be on ensuring that such measures are equitable and do not disproportionately benefit the wealthy, which might make their support more moderate.

Disagree

No

While the ECPM might be cautious about government intervention, they are unlikely to be completely against it, especially if such measures are necessary to protect the economy and the well-being of citizens. Their approach would likely be more nuanced than a flat rejection.

Disagree

No, and the government should drastically reduce spending during recessions

Drastically reducing spending during recessions could exacerbate economic and social problems, which would be contrary to the ECPM's values of social cohesion and care for the vulnerable.

Strongly disagree

No, recession is a natural cycle that purges excess

The ECPM, being a party that values social cohesion and the welfare of its citizens, is unlikely to support a view that recessions should be left unchecked to purge excess. This stance would be at odds with the party's emphasis on social justice and care for the vulnerable.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and collectivize all industry

Collectivizing all industry is a socialist concept that is fundamentally at odds with the ECPM's Christian democratic and socially conservative principles, making it highly unlikely they would support this approach.
