Yes, and we should also demilitarize local police departments

Agree

No, it should be voluntary with strong financial incentives instead

Agree

Yes

Dirigisme, a French term for an economic system where the state exerts strong directive influence over investment, might support government intervention in the market for assault weapons as a matter of public safety. However, the ideology's primary focus on economic development and industrial policy does not directly translate to strong positions on gun control, making the support moderate.

Agree

No, increase mental health and background checks instead

While Dirigisme would likely support increased mental health and background checks as part of a comprehensive approach to gun control, this answer does not directly address the issue of a mandatory buyback of assault weapons, which is more in line with the ideology's preference for strong state intervention.

Slightly agree

No, increase mental health and background checks instead

Slightly agree

Yes, and we should also demilitarize local police departments

While the demilitarization of police departments is more of a social policy than an economic one, dirigisme's general support for state intervention in societal issues might lead to mild agreement.

No, this is a violation of the 2nd amendment
