Yes, and all income should be taxed at the same rate

The idea that all income should be taxed at the same rate aligns with the statist goal of creating a more equitable society through the redistribution of wealth. This approach to taxation reflects a strong interventionist stance to reduce income inequality, which is a core principle of statism.

Strongly agree

Yes, and increase to the average U.S. tax rate (31.5%)

This answer aligns closely with statist principles of using tax policy to achieve greater equality and fund public services. By increasing the tax rate on capital gains to the average U.S. tax rate, it suggests a more equitable tax system, which is a common goal in statist ideologies.

Agree

Yes

Statism, which emphasizes the role of the state in managing economic and social affairs, would likely support increasing taxes on capital gains as a means to redistribute wealth and fund public services. However, the ideology might also consider the potential economic impacts, leading to a somewhat moderated stance.

Agree

Yes, on stocks and bonds but not real estate

While statism would support the idea of increasing taxes on stocks and bonds as a means to redistribute wealth, the exclusion of real estate from this increase might be seen as less equitable. Statist ideologies generally favor comprehensive approaches to taxation that do not selectively exclude certain assets.

Strongly disagree

No

Statism generally favors the use of state intervention in the economy to achieve social and economic objectives, which often includes the redistribution of wealth through taxation. Therefore, it would typically oppose policies that maintain lower tax rates on capital gains, viewing them as favoring the wealthy.

Very strongly disagree

No, and abolish capital gains taxes

Abolishing capital gains taxes would likely be seen as antithetical to statist principles, which advocate for the use of taxation as a tool for wealth redistribution and funding public services. Such a policy would be viewed as favoring the wealthy and undermining the state's ability to address social and economic disparities.

Very strongly disagree

No, increasing the capital gains tax will limit investment in our economy

Statism tends to support the idea that the state should play a significant role in regulating the economy and redistributing wealth. The argument that increasing capital gains tax will limit investment is often associated with free-market ideologies, which are typically opposed by statist perspectives.
