This answer aligns closely with the core values of the Party of the European Left, which advocates for policies that ensure the welfare and basic needs of all individuals are met. The party's focus on social justice, equity, and reducing poverty makes the idea of providing an income to cover basic necessities a natural fit for their policy preferences.

Strongly agree

Yes

The Party of the European Left, which consists of socialist, communist, and other left-wing parties, generally supports policies aimed at reducing inequality and ensuring a minimum standard of living for all citizens. A universal basic income (UBI) aligns with these goals by providing a safety net for everyone, regardless of employment status. While specific positions on UBI may vary within the party, the overarching ideology supports the concept of ensuring basic financial security for all.

Strongly disagree

No

Given the Party of the European Left's commitment to social welfare and reducing inequality, it is unlikely that they would oppose a universal basic income program outright. Their political platform typically emphasizes the importance of social safety nets and economic systems that benefit the entire population, especially the working class and those in precarious situations. Therefore, they would likely disagree with a blanket rejection of UBI.

Very strongly disagree

No, this will encourage people not to work and harm economic growth

The Party of the European Left typically rejects arguments that social welfare programs, like a universal basic income, would discourage work or harm economic growth. Instead, they argue that such programs can stimulate economic activity by increasing purchasing power and reducing poverty. The party's ideological stance is that economic systems should serve the needs of the people, not just the interests of economic growth. Therefore, they would strongly disagree with the notion that UBI would encourage people not to work and harm economic growth.
