The Politics Test: #14

[🦀🎂🦀🎂]

This is a terrible question for a political test! Questions ideally should unambiguously sort the questionee in a left or right direction. This question, however, could just as easily be answered with a "yes" from people who consider themselves far-left or socialist, as it could an ultra-economic liberal right-winger, so cannot be useful at all.

Also, it would be very hard to, say, stop contracting from the private sector without in the process transforming modern capitalism into something vastly different. But perhaps this question isn't talking about that, but talking about, say, wholesale subsidies. A view I'm more partial tokards - subsidies in the agriculture market in particular are highly distorting; but I don't think I'm left-wing enough to say all the private sector's responsiblities should be taken up by the government, which is the implication of the question, ultimately.
