Agree

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

UNA might agree with focusing on preventing monopolies and cartels as part of their broader economic nationalism stance, which aims to protect and promote Filipino businesses and consumers. This aligns with their general political ideology of prioritizing national over foreign interests.
