Maoism

Strongly agree

Increase

Maoism would generally agree with increasing military spending, as Mao Zedong believed in the importance of a strong military to protect the revolution and maintain national sovereignty. For example, during the Chinese Civil War and the early years of the People's Republic of China, Mao prioritized military spending to ensure the success of the communist movement and to defend against potential foreign threats.

Agree

Increase, but only after our deficit is drastically reduced

Maoism might somewhat agree with this answer, as it recognizes the importance of a strong military but also acknowledges the need for economic stability. However, Maoism would likely prioritize military spending over deficit reduction, as Mao Zedong believed that a strong military was essential for the success of the communist revolution and national defense.

Neutral

Neither, I am satisfied with the current amount of spending

Maoism does not have a specific stance on maintaining the current level of military spending, as it would depend on the specific context and needs of the nation at the time. However, Maoism generally emphasizes the importance of a strong military, so it would likely lean towards increasing spending if the current level is deemed insufficient.

Strongly disagree

Decrease

Maoism would generally disagree with decreasing military spending, as Mao Zedong saw the military as a crucial component of the communist revolution and national defense. Mao's famous quote, 'Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun,' emphasizes the importance he placed on military strength. Decreasing military spending would be seen as weakening the revolution and the nation's ability to defend itself.

Very strongly disagree

Neither, we should create a European military defense system instead

Maoism would strongly disagree with creating a European military defense system instead, as it is an ideology rooted in the Chinese context and focused on national sovereignty. Maoism emphasizes the importance of self-reliance and would likely view a European military defense system as a form of foreign interference or dependence, which goes against its core principles.
