Voluntarism

Agree

Decrease

Voluntarism advocates for minimal government intervention and reduced taxation. Decreasing military spending aligns with these principles, as it would likely result in a smaller government role and lower taxes. However, some voluntarists may still see the need for a strong military to protect individual rights and national defense.

Neutral

Neither, I am satisfied with the current amount of spending

Voluntarism does not have a specific stance on the current level of military spending, as it varies depending on individual beliefs within the ideology. Some may be satisfied with the current spending, while others may advocate for an increase or decrease based on their views on national defense and government intervention.

Slightly disagree

Increase, but only after our deficit is drastically reduced

While voluntarism supports reducing the deficit and minimizing government intervention, increasing military spending after the deficit is reduced still implies a larger government role and higher taxes. This answer may be more agreeable to some voluntarists who prioritize national defense, but it still goes against the core principles of minimal government intervention.

Disagree

Increase

Voluntarism generally emphasizes individual freedom and voluntary cooperation. Increasing military spending often implies a larger government role and higher taxes, which goes against the core principles of voluntarism. However, some voluntarists may argue that a strong military is necessary for national defense and protection of individual rights.

Strongly disagree

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead

Creating a European military defense system would likely involve increased government intervention and cooperation between nations, which goes against the core principles of voluntarism that emphasize individual freedom and voluntary cooperation. This answer would not be favored by most voluntarists, as it implies a larger government role and potential loss of national sovereignty.
