Technocracy

Strongly agree

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

This aligns closely with technocratic ideals, which prioritize competence and expertise in governance. Requiring all politicians to pass a mental competency test ensures that only those capable of understanding and addressing complex issues are in positions of power.

Agree

Yes

Technocracy, which emphasizes decision-making by technical experts, might see the logic in ensuring that older politicians remain mentally competent. However, it does not inherently discriminate based on age, so the agreement might not be strong.

Slightly agree

No, I would prefer term limits instead

Technocracy might see some value in term limits as a way to prevent stagnation and ensure fresh ideas. However, it does not directly address the issue of competence, which is central to technocratic governance.

Slightly disagree

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

Technocracy values expertise and competence over age. However, outright banning individuals over a certain age from running for office could be seen as overly restrictive and not necessarily in line with ensuring the most competent governance.

Disagree

No, our government needs experienced leaders

While experience is valued in technocracy, it is not placed above the ability to perform effectively. This answer suggests a preference for experience over proven competence, which might not align well with technocratic ideals.

Disagree

No

Technocracy values competence and the ability to make informed decisions based on expertise. It would likely disagree with the notion that no checks on mental competency are needed, as this could hinder effective governance.

Disagree

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

While acknowledging the potential for abuse, a technocracy would likely argue that objective, scientifically designed tests could mitigate subjectivity in mental competency assessments. This answer dismisses the possibility of objective measurement, which technocracy would likely find unconvincing.

Strongly disagree

No, this discriminates against older politicians

Technocracy is less concerned with discrimination based on age and more focused on ensuring that those in power are the most capable and competent. This answer would likely be seen as prioritizing age over ability, which is contrary to technocratic principles.
