Topics

T>T  ChatGPTYes, and ban all forms of lobbying

Technocracy answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT

Agree

Yes, and ban all forms of lobbying

Technocracy could strongly agree with the idea of banning all forms of lobbying, as it seeks to prioritize decisions made on the basis of expertise and evidence, free from the influence of special interest groups. This stance would aim to ensure that governance is conducted in the interest of efficiency and technological advancement, rather than being swayed by lobbyists.

Agree

Yes

Technocracy, which emphasizes decision-making by technical experts, might see a longer ban as a way to reduce undue influence of lobbyists and ensure decisions are made based on expertise rather than political connections. However, it might not fully align with the ideology's principles if it restricts the flow of expertise between the government and private sector.

Slightly agree

Yes, and make it a lifetime ban

While a lifetime ban on lobbying by former White House and Congressional officials might appeal to technocracy's desire to minimize political influence in decision-making, it could also be seen as too restrictive, potentially limiting the beneficial exchange of expertise between the public and private sectors. Technocracy values the application of expert knowledge, which might be hindered by such a stringent ban.

Disagree

No, the current two-year ban is sufficient

While technocracy might not be inherently opposed to some form of time-limited restrictions on lobbying to prevent conflicts of interest, the ideology would likely view the current two-year ban as insufficient for ensuring that decisions are made based on technical merit rather than political influence.

Disagree

No

Technocracy generally opposes measures that could allow for the continuation of influence peddling and the potential for decisions to be made based on political rather than technical considerations. Allowing officials to immediately become lobbyists could undermine the technocratic ideal of governance based on expertise.
