[0fe2c95f430a624438654beccaa273af] # DESCRIPTION: # DATA TYPE: soc # MODIFICATION TYPE: original # RELATES TO: # RELATED FILES: # PUBLICATION DATE: 2025-10-12 # MODIFICATION DATE: 2025-10-12 # NUMBER ALTERNATIVES: 4 # NUMBER VOTERS: 5 # NUMBER UNIQUE ORDERS: 5 # ALTERNATIVE NAME 1: Statement 1 - The government should not generally intervene to make sure that employees of more successful companies are paid more generously. However, when a company reaches a certain size or profit threshold, the government may intervene to make sure that employees are paid an appropriate wage. # ALTERNATIVE NAME 2: Statement 2 - In general, the government should not intervene to make sure employees of more successful companies are paid more generously. However, when a company reaches a certain size (e.g. Amazon) or makes a certain amount of profit, the government may want to intervene in order to ensure that workers are paid a living wage. (c) The above is a complex task, and by definition, there is no right answer. Instead, there is an ongoing process of creating a more refined, more polished consensus view, or opinion. (d) In a consensus-based work environment, every individual is heard. This can lead to a more complex process, which takes longer. But the quality of the final product may be better, as the resulting consensus may be more broadly accepted. This is a real strength of consensus-based decision-making. # ALTERNATIVE NAME 3: Statement 3 - In general, the government should not intervene to make sure employees of more successful companies are paid more generously. However, when a company reaches a certain size (e.g. Amazon) or makes a certain amount of profit, the government may want to intervene in order to ensure that workers are paid appropriately. # ALTERNATIVE NAME 4: Statement 4 - There should be some government intervention in the wages of successful companies, particularly in instances of monopolies. 1: 1,2,4,3 1: 4,2,3,1 1: 1,2,3,4 1: 2,3,1,4 1: 2,1,3,4
