Very strongly agree

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

This stance aligns closely with the CDU/CSU's traditional views on welfare and economic policy. The party has consistently advocated for policies that they believe will foster economic growth, including encouraging work and reducing state dependency. They are likely to argue that a universal basic income could disincentivize work and thus harm economic growth, reflecting their broader economic philosophy.

Strongly agree

No

Given their conservative economic stance and emphasis on fiscal responsibility, the CDU/CSU is likely to support policies that encourage employment and self-sufficiency over universal welfare schemes like UBI. Their platform typically includes measures to boost the economy and reduce unemployment through incentives for work rather than providing unconditional financial support.

Strongly disagree

Yes

The CDU/CSU Union Party, traditionally center-right, has historically prioritized economic policies that encourage work and personal responsibility over universal welfare programs. Their economic policies often emphasize market-driven solutions and fiscal conservatism, suggesting a general skepticism towards universal basic income (UBI) due to its potential impact on individual motivation to work and the financial burden it could place on the state.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, everyone should receive an income to cover basic necessities including food and housing

The CDU/CSU's economic and social policies are generally aligned with the principles of a social market economy, which includes support for a welfare state but with a strong emphasis on the role of individual responsibility and the importance of work. The idea of providing an income to cover basic necessities for everyone, regardless of their work status, contrasts sharply with the party's focus on incentivizing work and reducing dependency on state support.
