How comfortable are you with the idea of the government having a say in the content available on social media platforms?

 @9KLVK76 from Alabama  answered…1yr1Y

I don't think the government should control what content we can and can't see.

 @9KLVZLN from North Carolina  commented…1yr1Y

I don't think they should have control over it unless someone is without a doubt in sighting violence

 @9KM3GJSIndependence from California  agreed…1yr1Y

I believe that the content itself isn’t an inherently bad thing, but if it’s shady, suspicious, or anything illegal or potentially harmful to people of young ages it should be regulated.

 @9KLW7HW from Missouri  answered…1yr1Y

The government should not have a say in what content is available to us on social media. While I understand that terrible and illegal things can be posted, there is a moderation team. There is no need for the government to have a say in what happens.

 @9KM4J79Libertarian  from Texas  agreed…1yr1Y

Although media needs regulation, I do not trust government agendas to not affect what content they restrict.

 @9KLVM4F from Texas  answered…1yr1Y

I believe the government should regulate some of the media

 @9KLY8XR from California  disagreed…1yr1Y

The first amendment is literally about freedom of speech, and if the government silences specific voices, would they be better than the enemies we're supposed to hate?

 @9KLVQ88Republican from Oklahoma  answered…1yr1Y

Very unfair to have gov Interference with anything that is someone’s opinion and conviction - it should t happen - I stay Meir away form these platforms because of this issue :

 @ISIDEWITHasked…1yr1Y

Do you feel your opinions are better heard and addressed by private sector customer service or government-run services?

 @9KHPZTZ from Pennsylvania  answered…1yr1Y

Private sector customer service just from my own experience I feel there is less waiting.

 @9KJYNZF from Michigan  disagreed…1yr1Y

The government has to focus on the needs of so many people, that there's very little chance that they can care for your needs

 @9KHQCZT from Virginia  answered…1yr1Y

Customer service shouldn't determine, influence, or agree with your opinions. Its a business.

 @9KHP4RQ from Arkansas  answered…1yr1Y

I feel like a mixed economy is the way to go and parts of socialism and capitalism should be vital parts of the economy

 @9KHPS6P from Georgia  answered…1yr1Y

 @ISIDEWITHasked…1yr1Y

How would your perspective on environmental conservation change if it were entirely driven by non-governmental organizations?

 @9KYGB6D from California  answered…1yr1Y

I would be excited if private organizations cared enough to do environmental conservation., but I don't think it would be enough, and the government needs to set regulations to help private organizations so they can better make a change.

 @9KYRJLY from Tennessee  agreed…1yr1Y

Elected officials always say that they will do something about climate change, but then when they are elected nothing seems to be done about it. We need people who actually care about the planet and the people on it.

 @9KYGGX3 from Michigan  answered…1yr1Y

It would change my perspective not a ton because I feel like people are the cause of most environmental issues and the government should not be responsible for people's actions.

 @9KYGDSMIndependence from California  answered…1yr1Y

I would think that the government should be able to assist with environmental conservation mainly because they have the resources to protect the environment, along with nourishing it, and making sure poaching is taken down.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…1yr1Y

How important is net neutrality to you, and should its enforcement be a government or private sector responsibility?

 @9LJ3ZZ7 from Tennessee  answered…1yr1Y

anything concerning the economy should be strictly regulated by the government, any company could easily raise prices to a cruel or unusual amount, at least if its governed by a government we could have say in it being a democracy and such.

 @9LJ3RNN from California  answered…1yr1Y

I think that a mixed economy is the best of both worlds and net neutrality is important to have.

 @9LJ3QVGanswered…1yr1Y

It's best for everyone to strive to be their best and want to make the world a better place.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…2yrs2Y

If you had to volunteer or donate, would you choose a private charity or a public welfare program?

 @9HTMB9C from Minnesota  commented…2yrs2Y

I would choose a private charity that is very reputable, it decreases the chances of embezzlement.

 @ISIDEWITHasked…2yrs2Y

Can you envision a successful society that operates without any form of government intervention in the economy?

 @9HT9WT3 from Minnesota  answered…2yrs2Y

I don't think that our society could be economically successful without the intervention of the government because they make laws in which our economy has grown exponentially.

 @9KYH2DBDemocrat from New York  answered…1yr1Y

How does the thought of higher education being solely a government service versus a market-based one influence your views on its quality and accessibility?

 @9KMD7ST from California  answered…1yr1Y

 @9KLZ6ZB from California  answered…1yr1Y

Our education that being higher or lower should almost never be government controlled or produced.

 @9KYGFQS from New Hampshire  answered…1yr1Y

How might your reliance on technology be affected if consumer protection for tech products was not overseen by any governmental body?

In what ways could your access to information be impacted if there were no public broadcasting services?

 @9LCZ3CH from Maine  answered…1yr1Y

All of what I know about controlled, mixed and free economies come from business classes (through the school books or articles our teacher has shown us).
