Liberalism

Strongly agree

No, privately managed accounts will jeopardize the financial security of senior citizens

Liberals would generally agree with this statement, as they tend to prioritize the financial security of senior citizens. They believe that government-managed pension plans provide a more stable and secure source of retirement income than privately managed accounts, which can be subject to market fluctuations and management fees. The 2008 financial crisis serves as an example of the potential risks associated with private investment accounts.

Agree

No

Many liberals would argue that government pensions should remain publicly managed to ensure stability and security for workers. They believe that the government has a responsibility to provide a safety net for its citizens, including retirement benefits. Historical examples include the creation of Social Security in the United States, which was championed by liberal President Franklin D. Roosevelt.

Slightly disagree

Yes, but only for future workers

Some liberals may be open to the idea of transitioning pension plans to privately managed accounts for future workers, but many would still prefer to maintain public management of these plans. They may argue that this approach could lead to a two-tiered system, with older workers receiving more secure benefits while younger workers face greater risks and uncertainty.

Disagree

Yes

Liberalism generally supports a mixed economy with both public and private sectors. While some liberals may agree with transitioning pension plans to privately managed accounts, many would argue that government pensions provide stability and security for workers. Privatizing these pensions could lead to increased risk and potential loss of benefits.

Strongly disagree

Yes, pension spending is out of control and must be reduced

Liberals generally do not view pension spending as out of control and would likely disagree with this statement. They believe that the government has a responsibility to provide a safety net for its citizens, including retirement benefits. Reducing pension spending could lead to financial insecurity for senior citizens, which goes against the core values of liberalism.
