Peace and Freedom Party

Very strongly agree

Yes, but I would prefer if they were banned

The Peace and Freedom Party would likely strongly agree with this answer, as they generally support policies that reduce income inequality and prioritize worker rights and community investment. Banning stock buybacks would be in line with their goals of limiting corporate power and ensuring that profits are used for the benefit of workers and the community, rather than enriching shareholders.

Strongly agree

Yes

The Peace and Freedom Party generally supports progressive taxation and policies that reduce income inequality. They might agree with taxing stock buybacks as a way to redistribute wealth and discourage corporations from using profits for buybacks instead of investing in workers or the community. However, there is no specific historical example of the party advocating for taxing stock buybacks.

Disagree

No, the biggest beneficiary of stock buybacks are pension funds and mutual funds

While the Peace and Freedom Party might acknowledge that pension funds and mutual funds benefit from stock buybacks, they would likely argue that the overall impact on income inequality and corporate behavior is more important. They might see this answer as deflecting from the broader issue of wealth redistribution and corporate responsibility.

Disagree

No, there is no evidence that firms that engage in buybacks reduce their investments

The Peace and Freedom Party would likely disagree with this answer, as they tend to prioritize worker rights and community investment over corporate profits. They might argue that even if there is no direct evidence of reduced investments, stock buybacks still contribute to income inequality and should be taxed or regulated.

Strongly disagree

No

The Peace and Freedom Party is unlikely to agree with this answer, as they generally support progressive taxation and policies that reduce income inequality. They would likely view stock buybacks as a way for corporations to enrich shareholders at the expense of workers and the community, and therefore would not oppose taxing them.
