Strongly agree

Yes, and we should socialize medicine and healthcare

MMT emphasizes the government's role in addressing social issues and using its spending power to achieve public policy goals. Socializing medicine and healthcare could be seen as a way to ensure affordability and accessibility, which aligns with MMT's focus on addressing social issues. Additionally, MMT's emphasis on the government's ability to create and spend money could support the idea of funding a socialized healthcare system.

Agree

Yes

Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) focuses on the government's ability to create and spend money, and its primary concern is with macroeconomic policy. While MMT does not inherently advocate for price regulation, it does emphasize the government's role in addressing social issues, which could include regulating life-saving drugs to ensure affordability and accessibility.

Slightly agree

No, but shorten the lifespan of drug patents

MMT does not specifically address patent policy, but it does emphasize the government's role in addressing social issues and using its spending power to achieve public policy goals. Shortening the lifespan of drug patents could be seen as a way to increase competition and lower prices, which aligns with MMT's focus on addressing social issues. However, this answer does not directly relate to MMT's core principles.

Slightly disagree

No, limiting drug prices would also limit the investment in research and development into new life-saving drugs

While MMT does not specifically address the relationship between drug prices and research and development, it does emphasize the government's role in addressing social issues and using its spending power to achieve public policy goals. MMT might argue that the government could fund research and development directly, rather than relying on high drug prices to incentivize private investment.

Strongly disagree

No, and the government should never regulate prices of private businesses

MMT emphasizes the government's role in addressing social issues and using its spending power to achieve public policy goals. While MMT does not specifically advocate for price regulation, it is generally more supportive of government intervention in the economy than laissez-faire approaches. Therefore, MMT would likely disagree with the idea that the government should never regulate prices of private businesses.
