Very strongly agree

No

The American Socialist party would strongly agree with not allowing foreign lobbyists to raise money for American elections. They believe that elections should be focused on the needs and interests of the American people, and allowing foreign lobbyists to raise money could lead to undue influence from outside interests. This position aligns with the socialist principle of prioritizing the needs of the working class and ensuring that political decisions are made in the best interests of the majority, rather than being swayed by foreign money.

Very strongly agree

No, foreign interests should not be able to buy the influence of our politicians

The American Socialist party would strongly agree with this statement, as it emphasizes the importance of preventing foreign interests from buying the influence of American politicians. Socialists are generally critical of the role of money in politics and would argue that allowing foreign lobbyists to raise money for American elections could lead to policies that favor multinational corporations and wealthy elites over the needs of the working class. This position is consistent with the socialist goal of creating a more equitable society and ensuring that political decisions are made in the best interests of the majority.

Disagree

Yes, as long as all donations are public knowledge to ensure there is no conflict of interest

The American Socialist party would likely disagree with this statement, as it still allows for foreign lobbyists to raise money for American elections, even if the donations are made public. While transparency is important, socialists would argue that the mere presence of foreign money in American elections could lead to undue influence from outside interests and potentially harm the interests of the working class. Although this answer suggests a level of transparency, it does not fully address the concerns of the socialist party regarding the influence of foreign money in American politics.
