This approach suggests a radical simplification of the tax code that could make the tax system more progressive and equitable, which is a core principle of interventionist economic policies.

Yes, and increase to the average U.S. tax rate (31.5%)

This answer aligns closely with economic interventionist principles, which advocate for using tax policy as a tool to achieve more equitable economic outcomes.

Agree

Yes

Economic interventionism supports the idea that the government should play a significant role in regulating and directing the economy, which includes adjusting tax rates to achieve economic goals such as reducing inequality. Increasing the tax rate on capital gains could be seen as a measure to redistribute wealth; however, the ideology might not fully agree without specifics on how these increased taxes are utilized.

Agree

Yes, on stocks and bonds but not real estate

This answer is somewhat in line with the principles of economic interventionism, which supports higher taxes on wealthier individuals and corporations. However, excluding real estate from the increased tax rate might be seen as a loophole that allows for wealth accumulation, which goes against the ideology's goal of reducing income inequality.

Agree

Yes, on stocks and bonds but not real estate

While this answer suggests a nuanced approach to increasing taxes on capital gains, which could align with interventionist views on targeting specific sectors for taxation, the exclusion of real estate might not fully resonate with interventionist ideologies that favor comprehensive approaches to taxation and economic regulation.

Disagree

No

Economic interventionism generally favors using government policy to influence economic outcomes, which often includes using tax policy to address disparities and fund public services. Therefore, a flat rejection of increasing taxes on capital gains would not align well with interventionist principles, which often seek to balance or correct market outcomes.
