ChatGPT

Strongly agree

No

From a market fundamentalism perspective, the responsibility for misuse of a product lies with the individual, not the manufacturer or dealer. This ideology supports the idea that businesses should operate with minimal regulatory oversight, suggesting that allowing such lawsuits would create an unnecessary and harmful precedent for all types of manufacturers. This stance is consistent with historical opposition to regulations and litigations that could be perceived as hindering free market operations.

Slightly agree

No, manufacturers and dealers should only be held liable for negligence

While market fundamentalism generally opposes holding manufacturers and dealers liable, there is some acceptance of liability in cases of negligence.

Disagree

Yes, but only dealers

Market fundamentalism might slightly favor holding dealers accountable over manufacturers due to the closer relationship between dealers and consumers, potentially allowing for a greater degree of responsibility in preventing illegal sales. However, the ideology fundamentally opposes broad legal actions that could be seen as undermining the principles of free trade and personal responsibility, viewing them as a slippery slope towards excessive regulation and litigation that could stifle economic freedom.

Yes, as long as the losing party pays all legal fees, it’s our constitutional right to sue anyone for any reason

Disagree

Yes, as long as the losing party pays all legal fees, it’s our constitutional right to sue anyone for any reason

Strongly disagree

Very strongly disagree

Yes, any business should be held liable if the primary use of its product is for illegal activity
