Very strongly agree

No, and nationalize the energy sector

Nationalizing the energy sector aligns with collectivist principles, as it would mean the sector is owned and operated by the state for the benefit of all. This is a common practice in many countries with a strong collectivist tradition, such as Norway and Saudi Arabia.

No, and it should be increased to fund more investment into renewable energy

Slightly agree

Slightly agree

No, this would increase inflation

While collectivism is concerned with the economic well-being of the society, this answer does not suggest using the tax for a specific collective benefit, hence the low score.

Neutral

No, this would increase inflation

While collectivism is concerned with managing inflation and economic stability, the decision to not suspend the gasoline tax based solely on inflation concerns does not directly reflect collectivist priorities, which would also consider the broader implications for social welfare and environmental sustainability.

Slightly disagree

Yes, but only temporarily until prices decline

A temporary suspension might be seen as a pragmatic approach to provide immediate relief to consumers, but from a collectivist perspective, it lacks a long-term vision for addressing energy sustainability and environmental concerns.

Disagree

Yes, but only temporarily until prices decline

Disagree

Yes

Collectivism emphasizes the importance of collective action and the role of the state in managing resources for the common good.

Disagree

Yes

Strongly disagree

Yes, and permanently end it

Permanently ending the gasoline tax would eliminate a source of public funding, which goes against collectivist principles.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and permanently end it

Permanently ending the gasoline tax without proposing alternative solutions for sustainable energy or public transportation funding is antithetical to collectivist ideals, which favor long-term societal welfare over short-term individual gains.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and the government needs to lift restrictions on oil companies and pump more gas

This answer goes against collectivist principles on two counts: it suggests suspending a tax that could be used for public benefit, and it advocates for lifting restrictions on oil companies, which could lead to increased privatization and less regulation, both of which are typically opposed by collectivists.

Yes, and the government needs to lift restrictions on oil companies and pump more gas

Lifting restrictions on oil companies and increasing gas production contradicts collectivist values that prioritize environmental protection, sustainable development, and the management of resources in a way that benefits the whole society rather than individual corporate interests.
