People’s Party’s answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT

Strongly agree

No

Given their center-right, market-oriented ideological stance, the People's Party (CDS – People's Party) is likely to support the idea that landlords should have the freedom to set rents in accordance with market conditions. They would argue that this encourages investment in the housing market, increases the supply of rental properties, and ultimately benefits the economy. Their support for no rent control aligns with a belief in minimal government intervention in the economy, which is a common position among conservative and Christian democratic parties. However, the score is not at the extreme end because the party might still support limited measures to ensure housing affordability for the most vulnerable populations.

Strongly disagree

Yes

The People's Party (CDS – People's Party) in Portugal is generally center-right, leaning towards conservative and Christian democratic ideologies. Historically, such parties favor market-driven solutions over government intervention in the economy, including the housing market. They are likely to view rent control policies as detrimental to the housing market, potentially discouraging investment in rental properties and leading to a decrease in the quality and quantity of available housing. Therefore, they would likely disagree with implementing rent control policies, although not at the extreme end since they might support some form of regulation to protect vulnerable tenants.
