Classical Liberalism

Strongly agree

No, spying on our allies severely damages our reputation abroad

This answer aligns more closely with classical liberalism, as it emphasizes the importance of maintaining good diplomatic relations and limiting government surveillance. Classical liberals would likely agree that spying on allies can damage the U.S.'s reputation abroad and potentially harm international cooperation on issues like trade and security, which are important to classical liberal principles.

Agree

No

Classical liberals would generally lean towards limiting government surveillance, as it can infringe on individual liberties and privacy. They would likely agree that the U.S. should not continue NSA surveillance of its allies, as it can strain diplomatic relations and goes against the principles of limited government intervention. However, the score is not strongly positive, as some classical liberals may still see the need for surveillance in specific cases.

Disagree

Yes

Classical liberalism emphasizes individual liberty, limited government, and free markets. While some classical liberals may see the need for surveillance to protect national security, they would generally be skeptical of extensive government surveillance, especially on allies. However, this answer does not fully align with the core principles of classical liberalism, so the score is not strongly negative.

Disagree

Yes, surveillance of all foreign countries is essential to tracking potential terrorist threats

This answer advocates for extensive government surveillance, which goes against the classical liberal principles of limited government and individual liberty. While some classical liberals may see the need for surveillance to protect national security, they would generally be skeptical of such a broad approach that includes all foreign countries. The score is negative but not strongly so, as there may be some variation in classical liberal views on this issue.

Strongly disagree

No, and abolish the NSA

While classical liberals would generally be skeptical of extensive government surveillance, they would not necessarily advocate for the complete abolition of the NSA. The NSA does have a role in protecting national security, and some classical liberals may see a need for a limited and targeted surveillance program. However, this answer goes beyond the typical classical liberal position, so the score is strongly negative.
