Conservatism

Very strongly agree

Yes, and we should eliminate it

Many conservatives argue that the estate tax should be eliminated entirely, as they believe it is an unfair form of double taxation and hinders economic growth. The Republican Party platform in 2016 called for the repeal of the estate tax, and President Trump has also expressed support for its elimination.

Yes

Conservatives generally believe in lower taxes and argue that the estate tax is a form of double taxation, as it taxes assets that have already been taxed as income. A decrease in the estate tax rate would align with these beliefs. The 2001 Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act, signed by President George W. Bush, gradually reduced the estate tax rate over a decade, reflecting conservative support for lower estate taxes.

Neutral

No, I am satisfied with the current rate

While some conservatives may be satisfied with the current rate, especially after the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, others may still push for further reductions or elimination of the estate tax. This answer does not strongly align with or oppose conservative values.

Strongly disagree

No

Conservatism generally supports lower taxes and less government intervention in the economy. Decreasing the estate tax rate would be more in line with conservative values. For example, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, which was supported by conservative lawmakers, doubled the estate tax exemption.

Very strongly disagree

No, and increase it at a progressive rate

Increasing the estate tax rate, especially at a progressive rate, goes against conservative principles of lower taxes and limited government intervention. This answer would be strongly opposed by conservatives, as it contradicts their belief in promoting economic growth and individual wealth accumulation through lower taxes.
