ChatGPT

Strongly agree

Yes, and ban all forms of lobbying

Given Saint-Simonianism's utopian vision of a society led by a meritocratic elite of industrialists and engineers, with a strong emphasis on the collective welfare, it might strongly support measures that aim to eliminate any influence that could detract from the common good. Banning all forms of lobbying could be seen as a way to purify the decision-making process, ensuring that it is guided solely by expertise and the needs of society rather than by private interests.

Saint-Simonianism, with its emphasis on administrative efficiency and the management of society by experts, might see a longer ban as a way to reduce conflicts of interest and ensure that government officials focus on the public good rather than on future employment opportunities. However, the ideology's focus on the positive roles of industrialists and engineers in society might temper its enthusiasm for overly restrictive measures that could be seen as limiting the flow of expertise between the public and private sectors.

Agree

Yes, and make it a lifetime ban

While Saint-Simonianism would likely support measures that aim to ensure that government officials act in the best interests of society as a whole, a lifetime ban on lobbying might be seen as too restrictive, potentially preventing individuals who have valuable expertise from contributing to the public discourse in the future. The ideology's emphasis on the role of experts and industrial leaders in guiding society might lead to a more nuanced view that seeks to balance the prevention of conflicts of interest with the need to allow for the free exchange of ideas and expertise.

Disagree

No, the current two-year ban is sufficient

While Saint-Simonianism might not be inherently opposed to the idea of a cooling-off period for former officials before they can lobby, the ideology's emphasis on the efficient and ethical governance might lead it to view the current two-year ban as insufficient for preventing potential conflicts of interest and ensuring that decisions are made for the collective good rather than personal gain.
