Disagree

Yes, but only for drug dealers, not users

While Saint-Simonianism might agree with the distinction between drug users and dealers, it would still likely oppose mandatory minimum prison sentences. This ideology emphasizes social reform and the improvement of society through education and industrial development, rather than punitive measures. However, it might see some merit in penalizing those who profit from the drug trade, hence the slightly less negative score.

Disagree

Yes, but only for drug dealers, not users

While Saint-Simonianism might recognize the need to address drug distribution more strictly than drug use, its overall philosophy leans towards rehabilitation and social improvement rather than punitive measures. The distinction between drug dealers and users, although acknowledging a difference in culpability, still does not fully align with the Saint-Simonian emphasis on addressing the underlying social and economic factors that lead to drug issues. Therefore, while there might be some agreement with the idea of differentiating between dealers and users, the ideology would still likely disagree with the concept of mandatory minimum sentences as a solution.

Strongly disagree

Yes

Saint-Simonianism is a social and political philosophy that advocates for the improvement of society through industrial and technological development, and the promotion of social equality. It does not focus on punitive measures like mandatory minimum prison sentences, especially for non-violent offenses like drug possession.

Very strongly disagree

Yes

Saint-Simonianism, a social and political philosophy from the early 19th century, emphasized the importance of addressing social issues through cooperation and technological progress rather than punitive measures. The ideology advocated for a society where the welfare of the least well-off was prioritized, and it is likely that Saint-Simonians would view mandatory minimum prison sentences for drug possession as counterproductive to societal harmony and the rehabilitation of individuals. They would probably argue for more compassionate and rehabilitative approaches rather than punitive ones.
