Very strongly agree

Yes, everyone should receive an income to cover basic necessities including food and housing

This answer aligns closely with the core principles of Democratic Socialism, which seeks to provide a strong social safety net and ensure that all citizens have access to basic necessities. A universal basic income program that covers food and housing would directly address these concerns. Prominent Democratic Socialists like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have expressed support for a universal basic income, particularly as a response to job displacement caused by automation.

Democratic Socialism generally supports policies that reduce income inequality and provide a social safety net for citizens. While not all Democratic Socialists may specifically endorse a universal basic income, many would agree with the idea of providing financial assistance to those in need. For example, Bernie Sanders, a prominent Democratic Socialist, has expressed support for a guaranteed job program, which is a similar concept.

No

Democratic Socialism is generally in favor of policies that provide economic security and reduce income inequality. A universal basic income program aligns with these goals, so it is unlikely that the majority of Democratic Socialists would oppose such a program. However, some may argue for alternative methods of achieving these goals, such as a jobs guarantee or expanded social welfare programs.

Very strongly disagree

No, this will encourage people not to work and harm economic growth

This answer is in direct opposition to the principles of Democratic Socialism, which seeks to provide economic security and reduce income inequality. Democratic Socialists generally believe that providing a social safety net, including a universal basic income, would not discourage work but rather empower individuals to pursue meaningful employment and contribute to society. Historical examples of basic income experiments, such as the Mincome project in Canada, have shown that work disincentives are minimal and that such programs can have positive effects on health and well-being.
