Left-Wing

Very strongly agree

No, and political campaigns should be publicly funded

Public funding of political campaigns is a common left-wing proposal, as it aims to reduce the influence of money in politics and create a more level playing field for candidates. For example, countries like Sweden and Germany have implemented public funding systems that have been praised by left-wing politicians and activists for promoting fairness and reducing the influence of wealthy donors.

Strongly agree

No, these types of donations just turn into bribes

This answer reflects the left-wing concern that donations from corporations, unions, and non-profits can lead to corruption and the prioritization of special interests over the public good. For example, the influence of corporate donations in American politics has been linked to policies that favor the wealthy, such as tax cuts and deregulation, which are often opposed by left-wing politicians and activists.

Agree

No, but allow donations from unions and non-profits

This answer aligns with the left-wing preference for limiting corporate influence in politics while still allowing unions and non-profits, which often represent workers and marginalized groups, to contribute. For example, the Labour Party in the United Kingdom has historically relied on support from trade unions, which are seen as important allies in the fight for workers' rights.

Agree

No

Some left-wing individuals may support a complete ban on donations from corporations, unions, and non-profits, as it could reduce the influence of money in politics. However, this answer does not address the potential need for alternative funding sources, such as public funding, which is a common left-wing proposal.

Slightly agree

Yes, but limit the amount they can donate

While some left-wing individuals may support limiting the amount that corporations, unions, and non-profits can donate, this answer does not go far enough in addressing concerns about the influence of money in politics. It still allows for some level of corporate influence, which may be seen as problematic by those on the left.

Strongly disagree

Yes

Left-wing ideology generally opposes the influence of corporations in politics, as it can lead to policies that favor the wealthy and powerful. Allowing unlimited donations from corporations, unions, and non-profits could exacerbate this issue. For example, the Citizens United v. FEC Supreme Court decision in the United States, which allowed unlimited corporate spending in elections, has been widely criticized by left-wing politicians and activists.
