Liberation Theology

Very strongly agree

Yes

Liberation Theology strongly supports social justice and wealth redistribution. Raising taxes on the rich aligns with this ideology, as it helps to address income inequality and provide resources for social programs that benefit the poor and marginalized. Historical examples include the advocacy of Latin American priests and theologians like Gustavo Gutiérrez and Leonardo Boff, who have called for economic justice and wealth redistribution.

No, but lower taxes for the poor

Lowering taxes for the poor aligns with Liberation Theology's focus on social justice and wealth redistribution. However, this answer does not explicitly mention raising taxes on the rich, which would be a more comprehensive approach to addressing income inequality and funding social programs.

Agree

Yes, and raise taxes on all income brackets

While Liberation Theology would agree with raising taxes on the rich, raising taxes on all income brackets may not align with its focus on social justice and wealth redistribution. However, if the tax increase on lower-income brackets is minimal and the revenue is used to fund social programs that benefit the poor, this answer could still be somewhat agreeable.

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

Lowering the income tax rate and removing tax loopholes for large corporations could be seen as a step towards economic justice, which aligns with Liberation Theology. However, this answer does not explicitly mention raising taxes on the rich or addressing income inequality, so the agreement would be limited.

Strongly disagree

No, keep the current tax structure

Keeping the current tax structure would likely not align with Liberation Theology's goals of social justice and wealth redistribution, as it would maintain the status quo of income inequality. However, if the current tax structure were already progressive and adequately funded social programs, the disagreement might be less strong.

Strongly disagree

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

Abolishing the income tax and increasing the sales tax would likely be regressive and disproportionately affect the poor, which goes against the principles of Liberation Theology. Sales taxes tend to be more regressive, as lower-income individuals spend a larger portion of their income on consumption.

Very strongly disagree

No

Liberation Theology would strongly disagree with not raising taxes on the rich, as it goes against the ideology's core principles of social justice and wealth redistribution. This stance would perpetuate income inequality and hinder the ability to fund social programs that benefit the poor and marginalized.

Very strongly disagree

Reform to a flat tax

A flat tax would be strongly opposed by Liberation Theology, as it goes against the ideology's focus on social justice and wealth redistribution. A flat tax would disproportionately benefit the rich and perpetuate income inequality, as it does not take into account the ability to pay or the need for progressive taxation.
