[q1_1] In the future, science and technology will be able to solve most of today's problems

[q1_2] Science and technology are becoming our masters rather than our servants

[q1_3] Robots and artificial intelligence will cause society to divide into well-paid professionals and the impoverished

[q1_4] Even though robotics and artificial intelligence will cause jobs to disappear in the beginning, they will secure employment in the long run

[q1_5] Replacing human work with machines and automation will cause permanent mass unemployment

[q1_6] It is likely that I will have to learn a new trade in the near future due to structural changes

[q1_7] I would be willing to accept any type of work if unemployment was the alternative

[q1_8] I would be willing to accept a lower wage if working hours were shortened and I had more leisure time

[q1_9] The traditional class distinctions have largely disappeared in Finland because of the general rise in the standard of living

[q1_10] The success of an individual is determined mainly by his/her own actions and choices, not by society or circumstances

[q1_11] Income disparity between different population groups has grown too large in our country

[q1_12] It is fair that top professionals are significantly better paid than others, even if it increases income disparity

[q1_14] Finland is one of the most equal countries in the world where anyone can become anything they want

[q1_15] We should reach a situation in Finland where differences in income are levelled out more strongly so that everyone's disposable income would be roughly the same

[q1_22] The Competitiveness Pact driven by PM Juha Sipilä's Government was a step in the right direction in terms of Finland's economic growth

[q1_23] It is rational for Finland to subsidise its shipyards to ensure competitiveness because most other countries do it as well

[q1_24] Small businesses should be supported by governmental aid and tax reliefs because they create a major share of new jobs

[q1_25] Rents should be controlled even if it reduced rental housing supply

[q1_26] Tax credit for domestic expenses is an efficient way to combat grey economy

[q1_27] The integration of immigrants should be improved by temporarily allowing lower wages for them than stated in collective labour agreements

[q1_28] The state regulates the lives of individuals too much

[q1_29] One can do anything in Finland using the freedom of the individual as an excuse, regardless of what the common good might be

[q1_30] Citizens and consumers benefit from free competition in the market, because competition improves efficiency and decreases prices

[q1_31] People should be free to do anything as long as they do not restrict anyone else's freedom
