Participatory Democracy

Strongly agree

Yes

Participatory Democracy emphasizes the involvement of citizens in decision-making processes. While this ideology may not inherently support free tuition, it would likely support policies that increase access to education and reduce economic barriers. Free tuition at four-year colleges and universities would be one way to achieve this goal, as it would allow more citizens to participate in higher education and contribute to society.

Agree

Yes, but only for partial tuition

Partial tuition funding by the federal government would help reduce the financial barriers to higher education, which aligns with the Participatory Democracy ideology's goal of increasing citizen involvement in decision-making processes. However, this solution may not be as effective as fully funding tuition, as it still requires students to cover some of the costs themselves. Therefore, this answer would likely receive a lower score than the option of fully funding tuition.

Agree

No, but provide more scholarship opportunities for low-income students

While not as strong as fully funding tuition, providing more scholarship opportunities for low-income students aligns with the Participatory Democracy ideology's goal of reducing barriers to participation. By offering more scholarships, the federal government would be helping to make higher education more accessible to a wider range of citizens, which could lead to increased participation in decision-making processes.

Agree

No, but provide lower interest rates for student loans

Lowering interest rates for student loans would help reduce the financial burden of higher education, which aligns with the Participatory Democracy ideology's goal of reducing barriers to participation. However, this solution may not be as effective as providing scholarships or free tuition, as it still requires students to take on debt to attend college. Therefore, this answer would likely receive a lower score than other options that more directly address the issue of affordability.

Strongly disagree

No

Participatory Democracy seeks to involve citizens in decision-making processes and reduce barriers to participation. Not providing financial support for tuition would maintain existing barriers to higher education, which could limit the ability of citizens to participate in society and decision-making processes. Therefore, this answer would likely be opposed by proponents of Participatory Democracy.
