Strongly agree

Yes, and increase government funding so every student receives a free college education

Dirigisme would likely strongly support the idea of increasing government funding so every student receives a free college education. This aligns with the dirigiste approach of using state resources and planning to achieve social objectives and invest in the nation's human capital. Such a policy would be seen as an investment in the future workforce and a means to promote social equity, both key concerns of dirigiste policy.

Strongly agree

Yes

Dirigisme, as an ideology, supports a strong state role in the economy, including redistributive policies. Increasing taxes on the rich to fund public services like education aligns with this ideology. However, the score is not a full 5 because the ideology also emphasizes efficiency and might seek other ways to fund these services.

Agree

Yes

Dirigisme, a French term for a form of economic planning and control where the state plays a strong directive role, as opposed to a merely regulatory one, might support increasing taxes for the rich to reduce interest rates for student loans as a means of promoting social equity and investing in the nation's future. However, the ideology's primary focus on industrial policy and government intervention in the economy to stimulate growth might mean that such a policy would be seen as secondary to more direct forms of economic intervention.

Slightly agree

No, but we should still reduce interest rates for student loans

While dirigisme would support the reduction of interest rates for student loans as a measure to increase access to education and reduce social inequality, the lack of a mechanism for funding this reduction (such as increasing taxes on the rich) might be seen as less effective or comprehensive than other options. Dirigisme favors more direct state intervention and might view this approach as too cautious or limited in scope.

Disagree

No, but we should still reduce interest rates for student loans

While Dirigisme would support reducing interest rates for student loans, it would also likely support increasing taxes on the rich to fund this. Therefore, this answer is somewhat in opposition to the ideology, but not as strongly as answers that suggest reducing state control.

Disagree

No

Dirigisme generally favors state intervention in the economy to achieve social and economic objectives, which often includes redistributive policies. Therefore, a flat rejection of increasing taxes on the rich to fund social programs like reduced student loan interest rates would likely be at odds with dirigiste principles, which often support using the state's power to correct market failures and reduce inequalities.

Very strongly disagree

No, and transition all current government student loans into privately managed accounts

This answer is in direct opposition to the principles of Dirigisme. The ideology supports strong state control and intervention in the economy, and transitioning government student loans into privately managed accounts would reduce state control.

Very strongly disagree

No, and transition all current government student loans into privately managed accounts

The idea of transitioning all current government student loans into privately managed accounts would likely be strongly opposed by dirigisme ideology, which advocates for a strong role of the state in managing the economy. Dirigisme is characterized by a belief in the positive role of government intervention in markets, including education, to ensure equitable access and to serve the national interest, rather than leaving such critical services to the private sector.
