Strongly agree

Increase for large multinational corporations but lower for small businesses

This answer aligns with the Temperance ideology's focus on balance and moderation. Increasing taxes for large multinational corporations while lowering them for small businesses can be seen as a balanced approach that supports local businesses and ensures that large corporations pay their fair share. This approach has been advocated by some politicians who emphasize the importance of supporting small businesses and addressing income inequality.

Lower, but eliminate deductions and loop holes

Lowering the tax rate but eliminating deductions and loopholes is a balanced approach that could align with the Temperance ideology. This approach aims to simplify the tax system and create a more level playing field for businesses while still maintaining government revenue. Historical examples include tax reforms that have lowered rates while broadening the tax base, such as the Tax Reform Act of 1986 in the United States.

Slightly disagree

Remove taxes on corporations and tax shareholder dividends instead

Removing taxes on corporations and taxing shareholder dividends instead is a more radical approach that may not align well with the Temperance ideology's focus on moderation. This approach could potentially lead to unintended consequences, such as encouraging corporations to retain earnings rather than distribute them as dividends. There is no clear historical example of Temperance advocating for this approach.
