Very strongly agree
Yes, but dramatically reduce government spending instead of raising taxes
This answer aligns most closely with the Libertarian Party's core principles of limited government and reduced spending. Libertarians would strongly support reducing government spending instead of raising taxes. For example, the 2016 Libertarian presidential candidate, Gary Johnson, advocated for a balanced budget and reducing government spending by 20%.
Strongly agree
No
Libertarians generally oppose tax increases and prefer to reduce government spending. They would likely not support an increased sales tax to reduce property taxes, as they would prefer to reduce both types of taxes. For example, the Libertarian Party platform calls for the repeal of the 16th Amendment, which allows the federal government to levy an income tax.

No, but decrease tax rates for senior citizens
While Libertarians generally oppose taxes, they may be more open to targeted tax relief for specific groups, such as senior citizens.

Disagree
Yes, property taxes rates do not reflect the owners ability to pay
Libertarians generally oppose taxes and would not support increasing one type of tax to reduce another. They may acknowledge the issue of property taxes not reflecting the owner's ability to pay, but would likely argue for reducing both property and sales taxes, rather than shifting the burden.

Disagree
Yes

Strongly disagree
No, property taxes are the most reliable and consistent form of state revenue
Libertarians generally oppose taxes and would not argue for the reliability and consistency of property taxes as a reason to keep them. They would likely argue for reducing both property and sales taxes, rather than maintaining one for the sake of stability.
