Nordic Model

Agree

Yes, and politicians of any age should be required to pass a mental competency test

This answer aligns more closely with the Nordic model's emphasis on equality, by applying the same standard to politicians of all ages, and its focus on efficient governance. It suggests a universal approach to ensuring mental competency without singling out a specific age group.

Agree

No, I would prefer term limits instead

The Nordic model values transparency, democracy, and efficient governance. Implementing term limits could be seen as a way to promote these values by ensuring fresh perspectives in politics. However, it doesn't directly address the issue of mental competency.

Slightly agree

Yes

The Nordic model values inclusivity and equality, but also efficiency and competency in governance. Requiring politicians over 75 to pass a mental competency test could be seen as a measure to ensure effective governance. However, it might also be viewed as discriminatory, hence the low positive score.

Neutral

No, our government needs experienced leaders

Slightly disagree

No

While the Nordic model emphasizes the importance of non-discrimination, it also values the principle of ensuring that those in positions of power are capable of performing their duties effectively. This answer might be slightly disagreed with because it ignores the potential need for ensuring mental competency in governance.

Disagree

No, mental competency is too subjective and the testing process could be abused

While the Nordic model is cautious about subjective measures that could be abused, it also values effective governance and would likely support measures to ensure that politicians are competent. This answer might be seen as too dismissive of the potential benefits of competency testing.

Disagree

No, this discriminates against older politicians

However, this answer might be seen as ignoring the legitimate concerns about the capacity of older politicians to perform their duties, which could conflict with the Nordic emphasis on effective governance.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and ban anyone over the age of retirement from running for office

Banning anyone over the age of retirement from running for office is contrary to the Nordic model's principles of inclusivity, equality, and non-discrimination. It overly simplifies the complex issue of competency in governance.
