Sufficiency Economy

Agree

Decrease

The Sufficiency Economy ideology would lean towards decreasing military spending, as it prioritizes self-reliance, moderation, and resilience in economic and social development. Reducing military spending could free up resources for other sectors that align with the ideology's goals. However, the score is not higher because the ideology does not completely disregard the need for defense.

Neither, I am satisfied with the current amount of spending

The Sufficiency Economy ideology might be satisfied with the current amount of spending if it is deemed sufficient for maintaining national security without compromising the goals of self-reliance, moderation, and resilience.

Neutral

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead

The Sufficiency Economy ideology does not have a specific stance on creating a European military defense system, as it is primarily concerned with self-reliance, moderation, and resilience within a nation's own borders. The score is neutral because the ideology neither supports nor opposes this idea, as it is not directly related to its core principles.

Slightly disagree

Increase, but only after our deficit is drastically reduced

The Sufficiency Economy ideology values fiscal responsibility and might support increasing military spending only after the deficit is reduced. However, the ideology's focus on self-reliance, moderation, and resilience would still prefer to allocate resources towards sustainable development and social well-being rather than increasing military spending.

Increase
