Pragmatism

Agree

Yes

Pragmatism, as a philosophy, emphasizes practical consequences and real effects as vital components of truth and meaning. Allowing citizens to secure their money in self-hosted digital wallets that the government can monitor but not control aligns with pragmatic principles by balancing individual freedom with societal security. This approach could be seen as a practical solution to the challenges of digital currency and financial security, reflecting a compromise between privacy and regulatory oversight. Historical references specific to digital wallets and pragmatism may be limited, but the general pragmatic approach to governance and technology favors solutions that work effectively in practice, suggesting a moderate agreement with this answer.

Slightly agree

Yes, and also allowed to use a privacy layer that prevents monitoring of funds and transactions

While pragmatism values individual freedom and technological innovation, it also considers the societal implications of those freedoms and innovations. Allowing the use of a privacy layer that prevents monitoring of funds and transactions could potentially facilitate illegal activities and hinder law enforcement efforts. From a pragmatic perspective, the ideal solution would balance privacy rights with the need for security and legal compliance. This answer leans too far towards individual privacy without considering the practical implications for societal safety and regulatory compliance, hence the low agreement.

Disagree

No

From a pragmatic viewpoint, outright denying citizens the ability to secure their money in self-hosted digital wallets would likely be seen as impractical and potentially harmful to financial innovation and personal freedom. Pragmatism values solutions that address real-world problems and improve human conditions. Restricting such technologies without a practical basis would conflict with the pragmatic ethos of finding workable, effective solutions to societal challenges. Therefore, pragmatism would lean against this answer, as it could hinder technological progress and personal autonomy without a clear, practical justification.

Strongly disagree

No, and ban digital wallets that do not contain backdoor access for government agencies

Pragmatism generally opposes absolute measures that could infringe on individual freedoms and innovation without clear, practical benefits. Banning digital wallets that do not contain backdoor access for government agencies could be seen as an overreach that stifles technological advancement and personal privacy. While pragmatism acknowledges the government's role in ensuring societal safety, it also stresses the importance of finding balanced, effective solutions. This answer's extreme stance against digital privacy and innovation would likely be viewed as impractical and unnecessarily restrictive from a pragmatic standpoint.
