Workers’ Party

Very strongly agree

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

This answer aligns closely with the Workers' Party's ideological stance on the economy. They advocate for a socialist economy where the government plays a significant role, including ownership and control over key sectors. Receiving equity in exchange for financial aid is a step towards this goal, ensuring that public funds benefit the wider society.

Strongly agree

Yes

The Workers' Party, with its socialist orientation, generally supports increased government intervention in the economy, especially to protect jobs and ensure economic stability. Acquiring equity stakes in companies during a recession could align with their broader goals of socializing key parts of the economy, although they might prefer more direct forms of public ownership or control.

Disagree

No, this impedes technological progress due to competition being stifled

While the Workers' Party might be concerned about potential negative impacts on competition, their primary focus is likely on ensuring economic stability, protecting jobs, and promoting social welfare. They might argue that government intervention, including owning stakes in companies, can be designed in a way that does not stifle technological progress.

Strongly disagree

No

Given their socialist leanings, the Workers' Party is unlikely to oppose government intervention in the economy. They would probably view a flat refusal to acquire equity stakes in companies as a missed opportunity for increasing public influence over the economy.

Very strongly disagree

No, the government should never own shares of private companies

This position is antithetical to the Workers' Party's principles. They support greater government control over the economy, not less, and would likely view the government owning shares in private companies as a potential pathway to achieving their socialist objectives.
