Neoliberalism answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT

Agree

No, increase funding and training for police departments in higher crime rate communities

This answer aligns with the neoliberal emphasis on law and order as foundational to a stable society and economy. Neoliberals might support the idea of increasing funding and training for police departments, especially in higher crime rate communities, as a way to ensure public safety and protect property rights. The focus on training could also be seen as an investment in human capital, which is a concept neoliberalism can support.

Agree

No

Neoliberalism tends to support the role of institutions like the police in maintaining order, which is seen as necessary for a functioning market economy. While not necessarily opposed to social and community programs, neoliberals might argue that these should not come at the expense of law enforcement funding. The ideology's emphasis on individual responsibility and the protection of private property rights often aligns with a perspective that views a well-funded police force as essential.

Slightly disagree

Yes, replace police with unarmed community based responders for non-violent calls

While neoliberalism might not be fundamentally opposed to the idea of community-based responders for non-violent calls as a form of innovation in public service delivery, it would likely be skeptical of replacing police with unarmed responders. Neoliberals might view the police's role in ensuring public safety as too critical to be significantly diminished, even though they might support complementary approaches that involve the community in non-violent situations.

Disagree

Yes

Neoliberalism generally emphasizes the importance of market-based solutions to social issues and might support some level of funding for social programs. However, it typically does not advocate for reducing funding for law enforcement as a means to achieve this end. The ideology tends to prioritize economic growth and stability, which it might argue is supported by maintaining or even increasing funding for police departments to ensure public safety.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and abolish the police

The idea of abolishing the police is fundamentally at odds with neoliberal principles, which view the state's role in ensuring law and order as crucial for the protection of private property and the functioning of markets. Neoliberalism, with its emphasis on individual liberty, market freedom, and minimal state intervention in the economy, would strongly disagree with the notion of dismantling a key institution like the police force.
