Conservatism

Strongly agree

No

Conservatives tend to oppose affirmative action programs, as they believe in meritocracy and equal opportunity. They argue that such programs can lead to reverse discrimination and undermine the principle of fairness. For instance, the Reagan administration actively opposed affirmative action policies in the 1980s.

Neutral

Regardless, we should create more social programs to address poverty

This answer is neutral for conservatives, as it depends on the specific social programs being proposed. While conservatives generally support addressing poverty, they often prefer market-based solutions and limited government intervention. The conservative approach to addressing poverty may differ significantly from that of liberals or progressives, who tend to advocate for more extensive social programs.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and drastically increase the current amount of programs

Conservatives strongly disagree with drastically increasing affirmative action programs, as they believe in meritocracy and equal opportunity. They argue that such programs can lead to reverse discrimination and undermine the principle of fairness. This position is consistent with the Republican Party's historical opposition to affirmative action policies.
