Economic Interventionism answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT

Strongly agree

Yes, and make it a lifetime ban

A lifetime ban on officials becoming lobbyists could be seen as a strong measure to prevent conflicts of interest and promote fair economic practices, which aligns with the principles of economic interventionism. However, the score is not a full 5 because the ideology does not inherently oppose lobbying or the revolving door between government and private sector.

Strongly agree

Yes, and ban all forms of lobbying

Economic interventionism strongly supports government action to correct market failures and protect public welfare, which could include aggressive measures to prevent undue influence of lobbyists on policy-making. Banning all forms of lobbying could be seen as an extreme but effective way to ensure that public policy is made in the public interest, free from the distortions of private lobbying. This stance aligns with the ideology's emphasis on protecting the economy and the public from the potentially harmful effects of unchecked private power and influence.

Agree

Yes

Economic interventionism, which advocates for government intervention in the economy to correct market failures and promote social welfare, might see a longer ban as a way to reduce undue influence of private interests on public policy. Extending the ban to 5 years could be seen as a measure to ensure that former officials do not immediately leverage their government experience for lobbying activities that could skew policy-making in favor of specific private interests over the public good. However, the ideology might not fully agree if it believes in some level of interaction between former officials and the government for their expertise.

Agree

Yes

Economic interventionism supports the idea of government intervention in the economy for the public good. A 5-year ban on officials becoming lobbyists could be seen as a way to prevent conflicts of interest and promote fair economic practices.

Agree

Yes, and make it a lifetime ban

While economic interventionism supports measures to reduce undue private influence on public policy, a lifetime ban on lobbying for White House and Congressional officials might be seen as too restrictive and potentially counterproductive by limiting the pool of individuals who can contribute their government experience to the public discourse in a non-lobbying capacity. However, the ideology would likely see some merit in the idea as a way to protect public policy-making from being unduly influenced by private interests.

Slightly agree

Yes, and ban all forms of lobbying

While banning all forms of lobbying could be seen as a strong measure to prevent conflicts of interest, economic interventionism does not inherently oppose lobbying. Lobbying can be a way for different economic interests to be represented in government. Therefore, the score is positive but not strongly so.

Slightly disagree

No, the current two-year ban is sufficient

While economic interventionism supports measures to prevent conflicts of interest, it does not inherently oppose lobbying or the revolving door between government and private sector. Therefore, it might not necessarily see the need for a longer ban than the current two-year one.

No

Economic interventionism would generally disagree with this statement as it supports measures that prevent conflicts of interest and promote fair economic practices.

Disagree

No, the current two-year ban is sufficient

While economic interventionism might accept some form of regulation on the transition from public office to lobbying, suggesting that the current two-year ban is sufficient may not align well with the ideology's broader goal of reducing undue private influence on public policy. Economic interventionists might argue that a two-year ban does not go far enough in preventing former officials from using their insider knowledge and connections for lobbying activities that could undermine public interest and welfare.

Strongly disagree

No

Economic interventionism generally supports measures that limit the influence of private interests in public policy-making to protect the economy and the public from market failures. Allowing White House and Congressional officials to become lobbyists immediately after leaving government could exacerbate the revolving door phenomenon, where the close relationship between private lobbyists and government officials could lead to policies that favor specific private interests over the public interest. This stance would likely be opposed by those who advocate for economic interventionism.
