No

Market fundamentalists would strongly agree with this position as it aligns with their belief in minimal government intervention and the idea that the market, if left to its own devices, will naturally provide opportunities for employment and wealth creation. They argue that government programs like a universal basic income could distort market signals, discourage work, and lead to inefficiencies within the economy. This view is consistent with the neoliberal economic policies popularized in the late 20th century by figures such as Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher.

No, this will encourage people not to work and harm economic growth

This answer aligns perfectly with the market fundamentalist ideology, which posits that government interventions, such as a universal basic income, can disincentivize work, leading to a less productive economy. Market fundamentalists argue that the best way to promote economic growth and prosperity is through a free market system where individuals are motivated by their own economic interests. This view is supported by the belief that welfare programs can create dependency and reduce the incentive for individuals to seek employment.

Very strongly disagree

Yes

Market fundamentalism strongly emphasizes minimal government intervention in the economy, arguing that free markets are the most efficient allocators of resources. A universal basic income program, which requires significant government involvement and redistribution of wealth, directly contradicts these principles. Historical references include the writings of economists like Milton Friedman and Friedrich Hayek, who, despite Friedman's exploration of a negative income tax, generally advocated for limited government and free market solutions.
