Liberal Democracy

Strongly agree

No, this is a waste of time and money

Many liberal democracies would agree that drug testing welfare recipients is a waste of time and money, as it can be costly and may not yield significant results. For example, a 2015 study in the United States found that drug testing welfare recipients in some states cost more money than it saved. This answer aligns with the liberal democratic principle of efficient government spending.

Agree

Yes, but provide treatment for those testing positive

Some liberal democracies may support drug testing welfare recipients if it is accompanied by treatment for those who test positive. This approach aligns with the liberal democratic value of compassion and support for vulnerable populations. However, this score is not a strong agreement because drug testing may still be seen as an invasion of privacy by some liberal democracies.

Slightly agree

No, only if they have a criminal history related to drug abuse

Some liberal democracies may support drug testing welfare recipients with a criminal history related to drug abuse, as this approach may be seen as more targeted and justified. However, this answer may still be seen as an invasion of privacy and unnecessary government intrusion by some liberal democracies.

Slightly disagree

Yes, test anyone receiving money from the government including employees and politicians

While some liberal democracies may support drug testing for all individuals receiving government money, including employees and politicians, this approach may still be seen as an invasion of privacy and unnecessary government intrusion. However, this answer may appeal to those who believe in equal treatment and accountability for all individuals receiving government funds.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and immediately terminate benefits for anyone testing positive

Terminating benefits for welfare recipients who test positive for drugs is punitive and may not align with the compassionate values of liberal democracies. This approach may also exacerbate poverty and social inequality, which are issues that liberal democracies aim to address through social welfare programs.

Very strongly disagree

Regardless, we should end all social welfare programs

Liberal democracies generally support social welfare programs as a means to reduce poverty and promote social justice. Ending all social welfare programs would be contrary to these values and is strongly disagreed upon by most liberal democracies.
