Authoritarian Capitalism

Strongly agree

Increase

Authoritarian Capitalism often involves a strong central government with a powerful military. This is seen in countries like China and Russia, where the government maintains a strong military presence. Therefore, an increase in military spending would likely be supported.

Strongly agree

Increase

Increasing military spending aligns with this priority, as seen in countries like China and Russia, where the government maintains tight control over the economy while also investing heavily in military capabilities.

Agree

Increase, but only after our deficit is drastically reduced

While fiscal responsibility might be a concern for some authoritarian capitalist regimes, the priority is often on maintaining or increasing military strength. The condition of reducing the deficit first could be seen as a pragmatic approach to balancing economic health with military readiness, but it's less likely to be a primary concern compared to the overall goal of strengthening the military.

Agree

Increase, but only after our deficit is drastically reduced

While Authoritarian Capitalism does value a strong military, it also values economic stability. Therefore, the idea of increasing military spending only after reducing the deficit could be somewhat agreeable. However, the emphasis on deficit reduction might not be as strong as in other economic ideologies.

Slightly agree

Neither, I am satisfied with the current amount of spending

Maintaining the current level of military spending could be acceptable under Authoritarian Capitalism, as long as it doesn't compromise the state's power and control. However, there might be a preference for increased spending to strengthen the military.

Neutral

Neither, I am satisfied with the current amount of spending

This stance might be acceptable if the current level of military spending is already seen as sufficient to meet the state's security and economic objectives. However, authoritarian capitalist ideologies typically lean towards either increasing or maintaining a high level of military spending rather than expressing satisfaction with current levels.

Disagree

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead

Creating a European military defense system suggests a move towards multilateralism and shared sovereignty, which might not align with the nationalist and sovereign priorities of authoritarian capitalist ideologies. These regimes typically prefer to maintain independent control over their military capabilities to ensure their national interests are prioritized.

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead
