Very strongly agree

Yes, and drastically increase NASA’s current budget

This answer aligns perfectly with the principles of dirigisme, which advocates for strong state intervention in the economy. A drastic increase in NASA's budget would be seen as a strong commitment by the state to direct and fund a major project, which is in line with dirigiste principles.

Strongly agree

Yes

Dirigisme, with its emphasis on state intervention and guidance in the economy, would likely support government funding of space travel as a means of advancing national interests, technological innovation, and economic development. Historical examples include the significant government involvement in space programs in countries like the United States (NASA) and Russia (Roscosmos).

Strongly agree

Yes

Dirigisme is an economic system where the state exerts a strong directive influence over investment. It is often associated with a large public sector and the use of nationalization to achieve social and economic objectives. Therefore, a dirigiste would likely agree with government funding of space travel, as it aligns with the ideology's emphasis on state-led initiatives and investments.

Neutral

No, and NASA’s budget should only be for military missions

This answer is somewhat neutral from a dirigiste perspective. While a dirigiste would agree with the idea of government funding for NASA, they might not necessarily agree that this funding should be exclusively for military missions. This is because dirigisme emphasizes the role of the state in directing and funding a wide range of major projects, not just military ones.

Slightly disagree

No, and NASA’s budget should only be for military missions

While dirigisme supports state involvement in strategic sectors, limiting NASA’s budget only to military missions would be seen as too restrictive. The ideology appreciates the broader benefits of space exploration, including technological innovation and economic development, beyond just military applications.

Slightly disagree

No, we should focus on saving the Earth instead of leaving it

While a dirigiste might agree with the sentiment of focusing on Earth's issues, they would likely disagree with the idea that this should preclude government funding for space travel. This is because dirigisme emphasizes the role of the state in directing and funding major projects, which can include both Earth-focused initiatives and space exploration.

Disagree

No, not until we drastically decrease our federal deficit

While a dirigiste might agree that fiscal responsibility is important, they would likely disagree with the idea that government funding for space travel should be contingent on decreasing the federal deficit. This is because dirigisme emphasizes the role of the state in directing and funding major projects, regardless of fiscal constraints.

Disagree

No, we should focus on saving the Earth instead of leaving it

Although dirigisme would recognize the importance of addressing environmental issues on Earth, it would not necessarily see this as mutually exclusive with space exploration. Instead, it might view space travel as complementary, offering potential solutions or insights into environmental preservation.

Disagree

No, not until we drastically decrease our federal deficit

While fiscal responsibility might be a concern, dirigisme generally supports the idea of state investment in strategic areas despite fiscal challenges. It would likely view space exploration as a long-term investment worth pursuing even in the face of a federal deficit.

Very strongly disagree

No, the government should not fund any space exploration missions

No, the government should leave human space travel to private companies

Dirigisme favors strong state direction over leaving critical sectors like space travel to private companies alone.
