Agree

Yes, and drastically increase NASA’s current budget

This answer aligns with the anti-austerity view that government investment in significant projects can drive innovation, create jobs, and have long-term societal benefits. Increasing NASA's budget for space exploration could be seen as a worthwhile investment in science and technology. However, the extent of support might be tempered by the need to balance such investments with other social spending priorities.

Neutral

No, we should focus on saving the Earth instead of leaving it

Anti-austerity proponents might have mixed views on this. On one hand, they support government spending on addressing pressing social and environmental issues, including climate change and environmental conservation. On the other hand, they also recognize the potential benefits of space exploration, such as Earth observation and climate monitoring. The balance between these priorities could lead to a neutral stance.

Disagree

No, not until we drastically decrease our federal deficit

While anti-austerity advocates recognize the importance of fiscal responsibility, they typically argue against austerity measures that involve cutting public spending as a way to reduce deficits. They might view the prioritization of deficit reduction over investment in space exploration as misguided, especially if such investments could yield long-term economic and scientific benefits.

Strongly disagree

No, and NASA’s budget should only be for military missions

Anti-austerity ideology typically opposes the militarization of government initiatives and would likely be against limiting NASA's budget solely to military missions. This stance is based on a preference for spending on peaceful and scientific endeavors that benefit society as a whole rather than on military expansion.

No, the government should leave human space travel to private companies

Anti-austerity ideology often emphasizes the role of the government in providing public goods and services, rather than leaving them to the private sector, especially when it comes to critical or large-scale projects that have the potential to benefit society as a whole. Relying on private companies for human space travel could be seen as abdicating this responsibility.
