Very strongly agree

No, spend that money on improving infrastructure and the community to attract companies

This aligns closely with TUSC's platform, which advocates for investing in public infrastructure and community services as a means to create a more attractive environment for sustainable economic development, rather than offering incentives to private companies.

Very strongly agree

No, the government should never subsidize private businesses

TUSC strongly opposes government subsidies for private businesses, aligning with their broader critique of capitalism and support for socialist principles, which include the belief that public funds should support public services and the community directly.

Agree

No, but punish them for moving jobs out of the country

TUSC would likely support measures to prevent companies from moving jobs out of the country as part of their broader agenda to protect workers' rights and jobs within the UK, although their primary focus would be on creating a more equitable economic system that reduces the incentive for such moves.

Agree

Yes, as long as the local environment is not compromised

TUSC would likely support the emphasis on environmental protection, but might argue that the premise of offering incentives to private companies is flawed, preferring instead direct public investment in sustainable infrastructure and jobs.

Agree

Yes, but only if local citizens can vote on the amount of incentives to offer

While TUSC supports democratic decision-making, the focus on allowing local citizens to vote on incentives for private companies might be seen as a lesser priority compared to advocating for direct public investment and ownership.

Slightly agree

Yes, if the company promises to create new jobs by hiring local residents

While TUSC supports job creation, their preference leans towards direct public investment and job creation rather than incentivizing private companies with the promise of hiring local residents, due to skepticism about the enforceability and effectiveness of such promises.

Disagree

Yes, as long as the tax revenue will eventually exceed the tax incentives

Although this answer suggests a long-term financial benefit to the community, TUSC would likely argue that the initial use of tax incentives for private companies is a misallocation of resources that could be more effectively used for immediate public needs.

Strongly disagree

Yes

The TUSC (Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition) generally opposes neoliberal policies and the idea of using public funds to attract private companies, viewing it as a form of corporate welfare that could be better spent on public services.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, but I would prefer lowering corporate taxes to benefit all local companies

Lowering corporate taxes is contrary to TUSC's principles, which often include calls for higher taxes on corporations and the wealthy to fund public services and redistribute wealth more equitably.
