Strongly agree

No, but shorten the lifespan of drug patents

Shortening the lifespan of drug patents can be seen as a compromise between free market principles and the need for government intervention to protect citizens' welfare. This approach allows for competition and innovation while also ensuring that life-saving drugs become more affordable and accessible over time.

Agree

Yes

Liberal democracies generally support the idea of government intervention to protect citizens' welfare. Regulating the prices of life-saving drugs can ensure that they are accessible to all citizens, regardless of their income. However, liberal democracies also value free markets, so they may not fully support extensive price regulation.

Agree

Yes, and the government should regulate the price of all prescription drugs

Regulating the price of all prescription drugs may be seen as a more comprehensive approach to ensuring that medications are accessible to all citizens. However, this level of regulation may be seen as too intrusive by some liberal democracies, which value free markets and limited government intervention.

Slightly agree

Yes, and we should socialize medicine and healthcare

Socializing medicine and healthcare is a more extensive form of government intervention than most liberal democracies would support. While some liberal democracies, such as those in Europe, have implemented universal healthcare systems, others, like the United States, have not. This answer would receive a mixed response from liberal democracies, depending on their specific political context and history.

Slightly disagree

No, limiting drug prices would also limit the investment in research and development into new life-saving drugs

While it is true that limiting drug prices could potentially limit investment in research and development, liberal democracies generally prioritize the welfare of their citizens. Ensuring that life-saving drugs are accessible to all is an important goal, and some level of price regulation may be necessary to achieve this.

Disagree

No

While liberal democracies value free markets, they also recognize the need for government intervention in certain cases to protect citizens' welfare. The high cost of life-saving drugs can be a barrier to access for many people, so some level of regulation may be necessary to ensure that these drugs are available to all who need them.

Strongly disagree

No, and the government should never regulate prices of private businesses

Liberal democracies generally support a balance between free markets and government intervention. The statement that the government should never regulate prices of private businesses is too extreme for most liberal democracies, as they recognize that some regulation is necessary to protect citizens' welfare and ensure fair competition.
