You believe in promoting social equality through progressive taxation, social safety nets, and government regulation of businesses.
Economic progressivism is a political ideology that advocates for economic reforms that promote social justice and equality. This ideology is rooted in the belief that the government should play a significant role in mitigating economic disparities and ensuring fair distribution of wealth. Economic progressives argue for policies such as progressive taxation, where the rich are taxed more heavily than the poor, and social safety nets, such as welfare programs and unemployment benefits, to protect the most vulnerable members of society.
The history of economic progressivism dates back…

Is it the government's role to regulate businesses to protect the environment, even if it means lower profits for those businesses?
@9HB9MGQ6mos6MO
Yes, the government is responsible for regulating businesses and protecting the environment.
@9H6DWBK6mos6MO
It is, the government is responsible for our actions but also the countries activities. The government must think about what is important for each citizen and how they can be useful for them. A government is supposed to be caring and they have to be giving fair treatment to everyone.
@9HBY8MV6mos6MO
The environment should be protected, but we should also make sure that the economy is at a good standpoint.
@9HBCVCK6mos6MO
Yes it is a responsibility to regulate for example when I go to Wendys I get a plastic spoon with a paper wrapper.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
Would it make you more or less competitive if you knew that your basic needs would always be covered by government safety nets?
@9JC3MPL4mos4MO
less competitive, cause what I need Id have. in the case I wanted something new I would work a little harder during that time
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
Would you accept a cap on maximum earnings if it meant everyone could enjoy a secure and prosperous life?
@9JC3MPL4mos4MO
I don’t think this is possible because everyone’s standards are different.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
How does the opportunity for a guaranteed livable income influence your choices for higher education or vocational training?
@9KFMWKQ3mos3MO
it will inspire me to take more education and training
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
If your success was measured by the well-being of your community rather than personal wealth, how would that shape your goals?
@9HXN8TZNew Democratic4mos4MO
I would be more inclined to support my community and help with more social programs.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Can a commitment to reducing the income gap between the rich and the poor improve society overall, or does it unfairly penalize success?
@9HDYNFK5mos5MO
government should stop trying to destroy small business and the middle class. Only then will there be equity. People should work hard to get what they want and not expect a hand out
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
If given the choice, would you vote for a candidate who supports raising the minimum wage, even if it could increase the price of everyday items?
@9HCV2TN6mos6MO
If it could further increase the already insanely high prices of every day items like groceries and hygiene items that should be a basic right, then no. Some of us who are unemployed and cannot find work are barely scraping by as is without the prices being raised further.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Would you consider sacrificing some of your future salary to fund programs that provide the homeless with shelter and food?
@9HDSZK76mos6MO
Yes, I would forfeit some of my future salary to fund programs.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Do you believe that a higher minimum wage could improve your community's standard of living or does it make more sense to let the market decide pay rates?
@9HD8SX36mos6MO
Yes a higher minimum wage would improve a communities standard of living, but not if it inflates the prices of things.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Is it ethical for a few people to hold the majority of wealth while others struggle to survive?
@9H6GJSN6mos6MO
No, it is not ethical rather it is unequal and unfair.
