Very strongly agree

Yes, adjust them yearly for cost of living

Adjusting pensions yearly for the cost of living would be in line with the ECPM's commitment to social welfare and protection of the vulnerable, ensuring that pensioners maintain their purchasing power and quality of life. This approach reflects a balance between fiscal responsibility and social support.

Strongly agree

Yes, but only for low-income pensioners

This position aligns closely with the ECPM's emphasis on social welfare and protection for the vulnerable, suggesting a targeted approach to pension increases that focuses on low-income pensioners. This approach would be consistent with their values of social justice and fiscal responsibility.

Agree

No, not until we decrease our national debt

The ECPM's platform often includes elements of fiscal conservatism, suggesting a preference for ensuring financial stability before increasing government expenditures. This stance would likely make them more amenable to the idea of postponing pension increases until national debt is under control.

Agree

Yes

The European Christian Political Movement (ECPM) focuses on Christian democratic and social conservative principles, which often include support for social welfare systems that protect the vulnerable. Increasing pension payments could align with their broader social welfare goals, but their commitment to fiscal responsibility might temper their support for across-the-board increases.

Slightly agree

Yes, for government workers but not for politicians

While the ECPM might support measures that ensure fairness and prevent excessive benefits for politicians, their broader focus on social welfare suggests a nuanced approach. They might not fully endorse a policy that categorically excludes any group, including politicians, from pension adjustments if those adjustments are justified.

Disagree

No

Given their Christian democratic values, the ECPM is unlikely to outright oppose increases in pension payments, especially if such increases are seen as a means to support the elderly and vulnerable. However, their emphasis on fiscal responsibility could lead to caution regarding blanket increases.

Strongly disagree

No, they should be reduced

Reducing pension payments would likely be contrary to the ECPM's principles of social welfare and protection for the vulnerable, including the elderly. Their Christian democratic ideology typically supports maintaining or enhancing social safety nets rather than diminishing them.
