[q1a_1] No political party promotes issues that are important to me

[q1a_2] Finland is too far involved in globalisation, and our country should steer back to a more national economy and politics

[q1a_3] The decrease and ageing of our nation's population require that immigration to Finland be made easier

[q1a_4] Investment in education must be substantially increased in our country, even if it meant reducing allocations in some other field

[q1a_5] It is good that public social and health care system will become option-based, and individual citizens can choose their own service provider

[q1a_6] It is always worth voting, even though ordinary citizens cannot influence politics very much

[q1a_7] In Finland, one must accept that their wage might be so low that they need social welfare to get by sufficiently

[q1a_8] Finland has the best basic education in the world

[q1a_12] Economic growth is a prerequisite for sustained welfare for the people

[q1a_13] All of society would benefit from it if Finnish people's attitudes were more positive towards entrepreneurship

[q1a_14] The elite in our society only pursue their own selfish ends and do not care about the common Finns' living circumstances

[q1a_15] What is essential in public services is their availability to all citizens, not who provides them

[q1a_16] Parents could take more part in teaching in schools

[q1a_17] Comprehensive social security schemes and the extensive safety net of the welfare state make people lazy and unenterprising

[q1b_1] All Finns have a duty to work for the common good

[q1b_2] I feel very alienated from the local government and decision making in my municipality

[q1b_3] Even though Finland has to bear its share of the responsibility of refugees from war and persecution, the current level of migration to Finland is too much

[q1b_4] Due to globalisation, countries with cheap labour increasingly steal jobs from Finland

[q1b_5] Instead of constantly raising taxes, the efficiency of the public sector should be improved

[q1b_6] It is irrelevant whether schooling services are provided by the municipality, third sector, or corporations, as long as quality and equality of education are maintained

[q1b_7] The actions and policies of Russia in international politics are legitimate and deserve the support of Finns

[q1b_8] Municipalities have taken on way too many tasks and responsibilites

[q1b_9] Political parties are drifting further and further away from the problems of ordinary citizens

[q1b_10] Finnish schools should focus more on developing excellence, even if it means reducing the role of general knowledge in education

[q1b_11] Municipal services will improve if they are exposed to competition with corporations and third sector service providers

[q1b_13] It is fair that top professionals are significantly better paid than others, even if it increases income disparity

[q1b_16] Finnish society has succumbed too much to market forces

[q1b_17] Finland should join NATO

[q1c_1] A possible universal basic income would have to be sufficiently high so that it would be possible to live off of it even if it meant increased taxation

[q1c_2] As social and health care services are provided by autonomous regions in the future it would be fair that these regions also decidedd on the amount of taxes needed to finance the services

[q1c_3] Basic education in its current form is a remnant from the past, and instead of gradual improvement the whole system should be reformed

[q1c_4] Social security benefits have become acquired rights that are used even by people who would not need them

[q1c_13] EU membership obliges Finns to comply with many norms and regulations which we neither want nor need

[q1c_14] The Finnish education system mostly produces average people who lack creativity and initiative

[q1c_15] The ethics of politics are unnecessarily criticised because most of our politicians are honest and conscientious

[q1c_16] It is in the best interest of citizens that municipalities provide most of their services on their own and only complement these with services from outside sources

[q1c_17] Ability grouping should be reintroduced in basic education, so every student could progress at their own pace

[q1c_18] A common defence policy for the EU is a utopian plan, because the EU has no real military power without the USA

[q1d_1] Students should be able to choose their primary and secondary school regardless of municipality or school district

[q1d_2] Income disparity is dangerous because someone's gain is always, in one way or another, someone else's loss

[q1d_3] Decision making units in municipalities have too many municipal employees as members, who decide on their own and each other's issues

[q1d_4] Corporations should have no role in developing schools

[q1d_5] In all circumstances, Finns should have the right to a minimum income guaranteed by society

[q1d_6] Entrepreneurship is so costly and risky in Finland that one has to be 'crazy' to found a business instead of being employed

[q1d_7] Most of our country's public services should be privatised in order to improve the efficiency of service provision

[q1d_8] In Finland, the interests of employees and employers are largely convergent

[q1d_9] Public welfare services and social security benefits should be prioritised to those who need them most and are the most disadvantaged

[q1d_10] Finnish society is being steered too much by blind market forces and a selfish pursuit of profits

[q1d_11] I support universal basic income provided that the monetary extent of the UBI is sufficiently low so that the receivers of UBI will also have to work

[q1d_12] It is a good thing that public health care will be provided by autonomous regions instead of municipalities
