Slightly agree

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

However, this does not directly address their likely stance on surcharges and consumer protection.

Neutral

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

Transparency before purchases is something ERC would likely support, but they might argue that this alone is insufficient to protect consumers from unjustified surcharges, indicating a neutral position on this specific answer.

Disagree

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

Disagree

No

Given ERC's general advocacy for consumer rights and transparency, they are unlikely to support the unrestricted addition of surcharges that could harm consumers.

Strongly disagree
