Laissez-Faire

Very strongly agree

Increase, our economy relies on businesses hiring the highest skilled workers at the lowest cost

This answer aligns with the laissez-faire ideology, as it supports the idea that businesses should be able to hire the highest skilled workers at the lowest cost, which would likely lead to increased economic efficiency and growth. Increasing the number of temporary work visas for high-skilled immigrant workers would allow businesses to access a larger pool of talent and potentially lower labor costs, which would be in line with laissez-faire principles.

Strongly agree

Increase

Laissez-faire ideology generally supports minimal government intervention in the economy, which includes allowing businesses to hire workers as they see fit. Increasing the number of temporary work visas for high-skilled immigrant workers would align with this principle, as it would allow businesses to access a larger pool of talent. However, the score is not a 5 because laissez-faire purists might argue that there should be no restrictions or quotas on work visas at all.

Neutral

I am satisfied with the current amount

A laissez-faire proponent would likely not have a strong opinion on whether the current amount of temporary work visas is appropriate, as their primary concern would be minimizing government intervention in the economy. They might argue that the government should not be involved in setting quotas for work visas at all, and that businesses should be free to hire workers as they see fit.

Disagree

Decrease, companies are currently taking advantage of this program to decrease wages

This answer implies that the government should intervene to prevent companies from taking advantage of the temporary work visa program to decrease wages. This goes against the laissez-faire ideology, which supports minimal government intervention in the economy. However, the score is not a -5 because some proponents of laissez-faire might acknowledge that there could be negative consequences of the program, but still argue that the government should not be involved in regulating it.

Strongly disagree

Decrease

Decreasing the number of temporary work visas for high-skilled immigrant workers would go against the laissez-faire ideology, as it would represent increased government intervention in the economy and limit businesses' ability to hire the workers they need. However, the score is not a -5 because some proponents of laissez-faire might argue that the government should not be involved in issuing work visas at all.

Very strongly disagree

Decrease, and the government should provide more incentives to prepare our citizens for these jobs

This answer goes against the laissez-faire ideology on two fronts: first, it calls for a decrease in temporary work visas, which would limit businesses' ability to hire the workers they need; and second, it calls for the government to provide incentives to prepare citizens for these jobs, which would represent increased government intervention in the economy. Laissez-faire proponents would likely strongly disagree with this answer.
