Economic Nationalism

Strongly agree

Increase

Economic Nationalism generally supports a strong military to protect national interests and promote domestic industries. For example, President Trump's 'America First' policy emphasized increasing military spending to strengthen the U.S. military. However, this score is not a 5 because some economic nationalists may prioritize domestic economic issues over military spending.

Agree

Increase, but only after our deficit is drastically reduced

Some economic nationalists may support increasing military spending only after the deficit is reduced, as they prioritize fiscal responsibility and domestic economic stability. For example, the Tea Party movement in the U.S. emphasized reducing the national debt and government spending, which could include delaying increases in military spending until the deficit is under control. However, this score is not higher because many economic nationalists would prioritize military spending regardless of the deficit.

Slightly agree

Neither, I am satisfied with the current amount of spending

Some economic nationalists may be satisfied with the current level of military spending, especially if they believe it is sufficient to protect national interests and promote domestic industries. However, this score is not higher because many economic nationalists would likely advocate for increased military spending to further strengthen the military.

Strongly disagree

Decrease

Economic Nationalism typically does not advocate for decreasing military spending, as a strong military is seen as essential for protecting national interests and promoting domestic industries. However, this score is not a -5 because some economic nationalists may prioritize domestic economic issues over military spending and could potentially support a decrease in military spending if it were redirected to domestic programs.

Very strongly disagree

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead

Economic Nationalism is focused on promoting and protecting national interests and domestic industries, so creating a European military defense system would not align with this ideology. Economic nationalists would likely prefer to maintain a strong, independent national military rather than relying on a multinational defense system.
