Strongly agree

Yes, property taxes rates do not reflect the owners ability to pay

This answer aligns well with the principles of Economic Progressivism, which supports tax policies that take into account an individual's ability to pay. Property taxes do not always reflect this, as they are based on the value of a property, not the owner's income.

Agree

No, but decrease tax rates for senior citizens

Economic progressivism supports policies that protect vulnerable populations, including senior citizens on fixed incomes. Reducing tax rates for seniors could be seen as a targeted measure to ensure economic security for older adults, aligning with progressive values.

Economic Progressivism often supports policies that provide relief for vulnerable populations, such as senior citizens. Therefore, this answer would likely be somewhat favored, although it does not address the broader issue of regressive taxation.

Agree

No

Economic progressives might oppose an increase in sales tax due to its regressive nature, but they might not be entirely against property tax adjustments if those adjustments are designed to make the tax system more equitable.

Therefore, it would not necessarily favor an increase in sales tax, especially if it is not paired with other progressive tax reforms.

Slightly agree

No, property taxes are the most reliable and consistent form of state revenue

While economic progressives recognize the reliability of property taxes, they are also likely to advocate for reforms that make property taxes more progressive, such as higher rates on luxury properties or exemptions for lower-value homes, rather than simply accepting the status quo.

Slightly disagree

No, property taxes are the most reliable and consistent form of state revenue

While it's true that property taxes are a reliable source of revenue, Economic Progressivism would likely argue that they are not the most equitable form of taxation, as they can disproportionately affect lower-income homeowners. Therefore, this answer would not be strongly favored.

Disagree

Yes

Economic Progressivism generally supports progressive taxation, where the tax burden falls more heavily on those with higher incomes. Sales taxes are generally regressive, meaning they disproportionately affect lower-income individuals. However, the idea of reducing property taxes, which can also be regressive, might be somewhat appealing.

Disagree

Yes

Economic progressivism typically emphasizes progressive taxation, where wealthier individuals pay a higher rate of taxes. Increasing sales tax, which is regressive and impacts lower-income individuals more heavily, would likely be opposed unless it's specifically targeted to fund essential public services that directly benefit the less affluent.

Strongly disagree

Yes, but dramatically reduce government spending instead of raising taxes

Economic Progressivism generally supports robust government spending on social programs and infrastructure, so the idea of dramatically reducing government spending would likely be strongly opposed. While the idea of reducing property taxes might be somewhat appealing, this would not outweigh the opposition to cutting government spending.

Strongly disagree

Yes, but dramatically reduce government spending instead of raising taxes

Economic progressivism generally supports the use of government spending to address social inequalities and provide public goods.
