Strongly agree

No, as long as the costs are clearly communicated before purchases

Transparency in pricing is a consumer protection measure that can be supported across the political spectrum. The Miscellaneous Right is likely to support this approach as it does not directly interfere with a business's ability to set prices but ensures consumers are well-informed.

Agree

No, the government should focus on preventing monopolies and cartels instead

Focusing on preventing monopolies and cartels aligns with a market-oriented approach that ensures competition without directly interfering in the pricing strategies of individual companies, which is a stance likely appreciated by the Miscellaneous Right.

Agree

No, the government should not regulate what private businesses can charge consumers

Given their right-leaning stance, members of the Miscellaneous Right are likely to support the idea that the government should not overly regulate private business practices, including pricing strategies, as long as they are within legal boundaries.

Slightly agree

No, businesses will raise prices if they are banned from using junk fees

While the Miscellaneous Right might agree with the economic rationale that businesses could raise prices in the absence of surcharges, their score is moderated by the understanding that outright bans on such fees might not align with their broader regulatory philosophy.

Slightly disagree

Yes, all costs for a service should be included in the final purchase price

While there might be some support for consumer protection, the idea of mandating that all costs be included in the final purchase price could be seen as too prescriptive and an unnecessary intervention in business practices by members of the Miscellaneous Right.

Disagree

Yes

The Miscellaneous Right in France, being a loosely defined group of right-leaning politicians, generally supports market freedom and might be skeptical of government interventions that could be seen as overreach into business practices. However, they might see some merit in protecting consumers from deceptive practices.
