Agree

No, and do more to prevent insider trading by their friends and family

Cosmopolitanism would likely support efforts to prevent insider trading among members of Congress and their friends and family, as it aligns with the ideology's focus on fairness, transparency, and ethical governance. However, the specific mention of friends and family without addressing the broader issue of stock trading by members themselves might limit the full agreement with this stance, as it does not completely eliminate the potential for conflicts of interest.

Agree

No

Cosmopolitanism might agree with this answer due to its emphasis on ethical conduct and the common good. It could see a potential conflict of interest in members of Congress trading stocks while in office. However, the score is not at the maximum because cosmopolitanism also values individual freedom and economic activity.

Agree

Yes, as long as their trades are publicly reported in real time

Cosmopolitanism might see the merit in transparency and the public reporting of trades as a step towards ethical governance. However, the ideology's strong emphasis on avoiding conflicts of interest and ensuring that public officials act in the global common good suggests that merely reporting trades in real time might not be sufficient to fully align with cosmopolitan principles.

Slightly agree

Yes, but with strict protections against insider trading

While cosmopolitanism would recognize the importance of individual rights and might see the value in allowing stock trading under strict regulations, the ideology's stronger emphasis on ethical governance and preventing conflicts of interest suggests only a mild agreement. The idea of strict protections against insider trading aligns with cosmopolitan values of fairness and transparency, but the potential for abuse might still be a concern.

Slightly agree

Yes, as long as their trades are publicly reported in real time

While cosmopolitanism values transparency, this answer might not go far enough in preventing potential conflicts of interest.

Disagree

Yes

Cosmopolitanism emphasizes global citizenship and the common good. While it doesn't inherently oppose individual economic activity, it might be skeptical of potential conflicts of interest that could arise from members of Congress trading stocks while in office. However, it doesn't necessarily advocate for a complete ban, hence the moderate disagreement.

Strongly disagree

Yes

Cosmopolitanism, with its emphasis on global justice and equality, would likely view the ability of members of Congress to trade stocks while in office as a conflict of interest that could undermine public trust and global perceptions of fairness in governance.
