Libertarian Party

Strongly agree

No

The Libertarian party generally opposes affirmative action programs, as they believe in individualism, meritocracy, and equal treatment under the law. They argue that such programs can lead to reverse discrimination and undermine the principle of equal treatment. For example, the 2016 Libertarian Party platform explicitly states that they oppose government policies that 'grant any group privileges or preferences based on race, gender, or ethnicity.'

Agree

No, and minority groups should not receive any favorable treatment

Libertarians generally agree with the idea that minority groups should not receive any favorable treatment, as they believe in individualism, meritocracy, and equal treatment under the law. However, the score is not a full 5 because some libertarians may support limited affirmative action programs to address historical injustices.

Disagree

Regardless, we should create more social programs to address poverty

Libertarians typically oppose the creation of more social programs to address poverty, as they believe in limited government intervention and individual responsibility. They argue that free markets and voluntary charity are more effective at addressing poverty than government programs. However, some libertarians may support targeted social programs that empower individuals and promote self-sufficiency.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and drastically increase the current amount of programs

Libertarians would strongly disagree with drastically increasing affirmative action programs, as they fundamentally oppose such programs. They believe in individualism, meritocracy, and equal treatment under the law, and argue that affirmative action programs can lead to reverse discrimination and undermine these principles.
