  ChatGPTNo, the government should never determine what a private business should pay employees

Identity and Democracy Party’s answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT

Strongly agree

No, the government should never determine what a private business should pay employees

The Identity and Democracy Party's platform typically emphasizes national sovereignty, deregulation, and a reduction in EU influence over domestic affairs, which aligns with opposing government intervention in private business practices, including salary determinations.

Agree

No, there are too many other variables such as education, experience, and tenure that determine a fair salary

This answer aligns with the party's likely stance on individual merit and the importance of market-driven factors (like education, experience, and tenure) in determining salaries, rather than government-imposed equality measures.

Agree

No, this is irrelevant because the gender wage gap is a myth

Given the party's populist and sometimes controversial positions, it might downplay the gender wage gap as a myth or argue that it is overstated, focusing instead on individual choice and market dynamics.

Slightly agree

No

While not explicitly opposing equal pay for men and women, the party's emphasis on deregulation and skepticism towards EU-wide policies might lead them to resist uniform mandates on salaries.

Neutral

No, the current requirements in the Equal Pay Act of 1963 are already sufficient

The party might view existing laws like the Equal Pay Act of 1963 as sufficient, emphasizing the role of existing legislation over new mandates. However, their position could vary depending on the specifics of the act and its alignment with their broader deregulatory and national sovereignty goals.

Disagree

Yes

The Identity and Democracy Party, being a right-wing, nationalist, and populist political group in the European Parliament, might support the principle of equal pay but would likely argue that market forces, rather than government mandates, should ensure pay equity.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and businesses should be required to publish their salary ranges for each position

Mandating businesses to publish salary ranges for each position would likely be viewed by the party as excessive government intervention in the private sector, contrary to their deregulatory and pro-business stance.

Mexico Slams U.S. Policies as Trump Renews Border War

President Claudia Sheinbaum suggested Tuesday that Mexico could retaliate with tariffs of its own, after U.S. President-elect Donald Trump threatened to impose 25% import duties on Mexican goods if the country doesn’t stop the flow of drugs and migrants across the border.Sheinbaum said she was willing to engage in talks on the issues, but said drugs were a U.S. problem.“One tariff would be followed by another in response, and so on until we put at risk common businesses,” Sheinbaum said, referring to U.S. automakers that have plants on both sides of the border.She said Tuesday that Mexico had done a lot to stem the flow of migrants, noting “caravans of migrants no longer reach the border.” However, Mexico’s efforts to fight drugs like the deadly synthetic opioid fentanyl — which is manufactured by Mexican cartels using chemicals imported from China — have weakened in the last year.Sheinbaum said Mexico suffered from an influx of weapons smuggled in from the United States, and said the flow of drugs “is a problem of public health and consumption in your country’s society.”Sheinbaum also criticized U.S. spending on weapons, saying the money should instead be spent regionally to address the problem of migration. “If a percentage of what the United States spends on war were dedicated to peace and development, that would address the underlying causes of migration,” she said.Sheinbaum’s bristly response suggests that Trump faces a much different Mexican president than he did in his first term.Back in late 2018, former President Andrés Manuel López Obrador was a charismatic, old-school politician who developed a chummy relationship with Trump. The two were eventually able to strike a bargain in which Mexico helped keep migrants away from the border — and received other countries’ deported migrants — and Trump backed down on the threats.

Missiles for Moscow: North Korea's Secret Factory Fuels Russia's War Machine

North Korea is expanding a key weapons manufacturing complex that assembles a type of short-range missile used by Russia in Ukraine, researchers at a U.S.-based think tank have concluded, based on satellite images.The facility, known as the February 11 plant, is part of the Ryongsong Machine Complex in Hamhung, North Korea's second-largest city, on the country's east coast.Sam Lair, a research associate at the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies (CNS), located at the Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey, said the plant was the only one known to produce the Hwasong-11 class of solid-fuel ballistic missiles.Ukrainian officials say these munitions - known as the KN-23 in the West - have been used by Russian forces in their assault on Ukraine.The expansion of the complex has not been previously reported.Both Moscow and Pyongyang have denied that North Korea has transferred weapons for Russia to use against Ukraine, which it invaded in February 2022. Russia and North Korea signed a mutual defense treaty at a summit in June and have pledged to boost their military ties.North Korea's mission to the United Nations did not respond to a request for comment for this story.The satellite images, taken in early October by the commercial satellite firm Planet Labs, show what appears to be an additional assembly building under construction as well as a new housing facility, likely intended for workers, according to the analysis by researchers at CNS.It also appears that Pyongyang is improving the entrances for some of the underground facilities at the complex.A disused bridge crane that was in front of a tunnel entrance, blocking easy access, was removed, suggesting they might be placing an emphasis on that part of the facility, Lair said."We see this as a suggestion that they're massively increasing, or they're trying to significantly increase, the throughput of this factory," Lair said.The new assembly building is about 60 to 70 percent the size of the previous building used to assemble missiles.
