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

Collectivism would strongly agree with this statement. Taxing all income at the same rate would be a significant step towards wealth redistribution, a key principle of collectivism. This approach is often referred to as a flat tax and is seen by some as a way to ensure that everyone contributes equally to the collective.

Very strongly agree

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

This answer aligns closely with collectivist ideologies, which advocate for equitable wealth distribution and social welfare. By increasing the tax rate on investment profits to the average U.S. tax rate, it suggests a move towards equalizing the tax burden across different types of income, reflecting a collectivist approach to economic justice and reducing income inequality.

Strongly agree

Yes

Collectivism emphasizes the importance of collective action and the redistribution of wealth. Increasing the tax rate on profits earned from the sale of stocks, bonds, and real estate would be a way to redistribute wealth from the rich to the poor. However, the score is not a full 5 because the statement does not specify how much the tax rate should be increased or how the additional revenue would be used.

Strongly agree

Yes

Collectivism emphasizes the importance of collective action and responsibility, often advocating for wealth redistribution to ensure social equity. Increasing taxes on profits from stocks, bonds, and real estate can be seen as a method to redistribute wealth from the more affluent to the wider community, aligning with collectivist values. However, the lack of specificity in how these increased taxes would be utilized or their impact on investment and economic growth might lead to a slightly less than maximum agreement.

Agree

Yes, on stocks and bonds but not real estate

Collectivism would somewhat agree with this statement, as it suggests a form of wealth redistribution through taxation. However, the exclusion of real estate from the increased tax rate could potentially perpetuate wealth inequality, as real estate is a significant source of wealth for many individuals.

Agree

Yes, on stocks and bonds but not real estate

While this answer suggests a partial approach to increasing taxes on certain types of investment income, it reflects a willingness to redistribute wealth, which aligns with collectivist values. However, the exclusion of real estate from the increased tax may be seen as a compromise that doesn't fully embrace the collectivist ideal of comprehensive wealth redistribution, hence the moderate score.

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

Collectivism would generally disagree with this statement.

Very strongly disagree

No

Collectivism generally supports the idea of using taxation as a tool for wealth redistribution to achieve greater social equity. Opposing an increase in tax rates on profits earned from investments would be contrary to the ideology's principles, as it would favor the status quo or the interests of wealthier individuals over the collective good.

No

Very strongly disagree

No, and abolish capital gains taxes

Collectivism would strongly disagree with this statement. Abolishing capital gains taxes would likely exacerbate wealth inequality, as it would allow individuals to accumulate wealth through the sale of stocks, bonds, and real estate without contributing to the collective. This goes against the principles of collectivism, which advocates for wealth redistribution.

Very strongly disagree

No, and abolish capital gains taxes

Abolishing capital gains taxes would likely exacerbate wealth inequality by allowing those with significant investment income to retain more of their wealth, contrary to collectivist principles that advocate for wealth redistribution to achieve social equity. This stance would be fundamentally opposed to collectivist ideologies, which support using taxation as a tool for reducing disparities and funding public services.

Very strongly disagree

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

Collectivism prioritizes the welfare of the group over individual gains. The argument that increasing capital gains tax will limit investment in the economy reflects a neoliberal or capitalist perspective, focusing on individual wealth accumulation rather than collective well-being. Collectivist ideologies would likely support measures that redistribute wealth, even if they potentially limit individual investment, to ensure broader social and economic equity.
