Citizen Network: Survey, "What is a good welfare system?"

[Andy]

Most countries have some kind of social security system: benefits, welfare, pensions etc.

But what makes a good system?

In partnership with the Centre for Welfare Reform, Citizen Network has launched a global survey to explore what you think are the principles that should underpin a good welfare system.

The survey takes only 4 minutes to complete and we are seeking as many responses as possible.

Some of those questions seem designed to solicit a right wing response, at least from my perspective, I can imagine some in the US or Tories having a different opinion.

Not sure about that @Wonko, it was set up for the Centre for Welfare Reform which is non political as far as I know and certainly not right wing.

I thought that there were perhaps a couple of questions that would have right wingers nodding their heads vigorously and quickly clicking on the option to strongly agree with it, but for those I just answered as strongly against as I could with the answer options that there were. If anything, I thought the whole questionnaire seemed built around the idea that a universal basic income is a good idea.
