Very strongly agree

Yes

Modern liberalism generally supports progressive taxation, which means higher income earners pay a higher percentage of their income in taxes. This is based on the belief that the rich can afford to contribute more to society and that it helps reduce income inequality. Examples include President Obama's support for the 'Buffett Rule,' which aimed to ensure that millionaires pay a minimum effective tax rate of 30%.

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

Modern liberalism generally agrees with this answer, as it supports closing tax loopholes that benefit large corporations and ensuring that they pay their fair share of taxes. However, this answer does not specifically address raising taxes on the rich, which is a key component of modern liberal tax policy. Examples of modern liberal support for closing corporate tax loopholes include President Obama's efforts to close the 'corporate inversion' loophole, which allowed companies to avoid U.S. taxes by merging with foreign firms.

Yes, and raise taxes on all income brackets

While modern liberalism supports raising taxes on the rich, it does not necessarily advocate for raising taxes on all income brackets. However, some modern liberals may argue that raising taxes across the board is necessary to fund essential public services and social programs. For example, Senator Bernie Sanders has proposed raising taxes on all income brackets to fund universal healthcare.

Strongly disagree

Reform to a flat tax

Modern liberalism generally opposes a flat tax, as it would eliminate the progressivity of the tax system and disproportionately benefit the wealthy. A flat tax would not address income inequality and could potentially exacerbate it, which goes against modern liberal principles.

No, keep the current tax structure

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