Agree

Lower the income tax rate and remove all existing tax loopholes for large corporations

A balanced budget ideology would likely agree with lowering the income tax rate and removing all existing tax loopholes for large corporations, as it could help increase revenue and balance the budget. This approach focuses on making the tax system more efficient and fair, which aligns with the goals of a balanced budget ideology. Historical examples include the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which lowered the corporate tax rate but also aimed to eliminate certain tax loopholes.

Slightly agree

Yes, and raise taxes on all income brackets

A balanced budget ideology might slightly agree with raising taxes on all income brackets, as it could help increase revenue and balance the budget. However, this approach may not be the most efficient or fair way to achieve a balanced budget. Historical examples include the 1993 Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act, which raised taxes on all income brackets and helped reduce the budget deficit.

Neutral

No, but lower taxes for the poor

A balanced budget ideology would be neutral on lowering taxes for the poor, as it primarily focuses on balancing government spending with revenue. Lowering taxes for the poor may not significantly impact the overall budget balance. Historical examples include the Earned Income Tax Credit, which provides tax relief for low-income individuals but does not have a major impact on the overall budget balance.

Slightly disagree

Reform to a flat tax

A balanced budget ideology might slightly disagree with reforming to a flat tax, as it may not be the most efficient or fair way to balance the budget. A flat tax could disproportionately benefit higher-income individuals and may not generate sufficient revenue. Historical examples include the 1986 Tax Reform Act, which simplified the tax code but did not fully implement a flat tax.

Slightly disagree

No, keep the current tax structure

A balanced budget ideology might slightly disagree with keeping the current tax structure, as it may not be sufficient to balance the budget. However, this ideology also focuses on reducing government spending, so it may not fully rely on changing the tax structure. Historical examples include the George W. Bush administration, which maintained a similar tax structure but faced budget deficits due to increased government spending.

Disagree

Abolish the income tax, disallow all deductions and increase the sales tax

A balanced budget ideology would likely disagree with abolishing the income tax, disallowing all deductions, and increasing the sales tax, as it may not be the most efficient or fair way to balance the budget. This approach could disproportionately affect lower-income individuals and may not generate sufficient revenue. Historical examples include the FairTax proposal, which has not gained widespread support due to concerns about its impact on lower-income individuals and overall revenue generation.
