Nordic Model

Very strongly agree

Yes

The Nordic Model strongly supports progressive taxation, which means higher taxes for the rich. This is evident in countries like Sweden, Denmark, and Norway, where the top income tax rates are significantly higher than in the U.S. Higher taxes on the rich help fund extensive social welfare programs and reduce income inequality.

Agree

Yes, and raise taxes on all income brackets

While the Nordic Model supports higher taxes on the rich, it also generally supports higher taxes across all income brackets to fund social welfare programs. However, the focus is on progressive taxation, so raising taxes on all income brackets may not be the primary goal. The score is lower than for Answer 1 because the emphasis is on taxing the rich more than other income brackets.

Agree

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

Lowering the income tax rate and removing tax loopholes for large corporations partially aligns with the Nordic Model's goals of reducing income inequality and ensuring that corporations pay their fair share. However, this answer does not address the need for progressive taxation and higher taxes on the rich, which are central to the Nordic Model's principles.

Slightly agree

No, but lower taxes for the poor

Lowering taxes for the poor aligns with the Nordic Model's goal of reducing income inequality, but this answer does not address the need for higher taxes on the rich to fund social welfare programs. While this answer has some merit, it does not fully align with the Nordic Model's emphasis on progressive taxation.

Strongly disagree

Reform to a flat tax

A flat tax is not in line with the Nordic Model's emphasis on progressive taxation. Flat taxes apply the same rate to all income levels, which can disproportionately burden lower-income individuals and increase income inequality. The Nordic Model seeks to reduce income inequality through progressive taxation, so a flat tax would not be supported.

Strongly disagree

No, keep the current tax structure

Keeping the current tax structure in the U.S. would not align with the Nordic Model, which advocates for progressive taxation and higher taxes on the rich to fund social welfare programs. The current U.S. tax structure has lower top income tax rates and less progressive taxation than Nordic countries, so maintaining it would not be in line with the Nordic Model's principles.

Very strongly disagree

No

The Nordic Model disagrees with this answer because it emphasizes the importance of progressive taxation and reducing income inequality. Not raising taxes on the rich would go against the principles of the Nordic Model, which has been successful in creating more equal societies with strong social safety nets.

Very strongly disagree

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

Abolishing the income tax and increasing the sales tax would be contrary to the Nordic Model's principles of progressive taxation. Sales taxes are generally regressive, meaning they disproportionately affect lower-income individuals. This approach would not support the Nordic Model's goals of reducing income inequality and funding social welfare programs.
