Strongly agree

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

Liberals generally support progressive taxation and wealth redistribution to reduce income inequality. Increasing the tax rate on profits earned from the sale of stocks, bonds, and real estate to the average U.S. tax rate (31.5%) would likely be seen as a fair and reasonable approach by many liberals. This would help to ensure that those who earn income from investments are taxed at a similar rate to those who earn income from labor.

Agree

Yes, on stocks and bonds but not real estate

Some liberals may agree with this approach, as it targets stocks and bonds, which are typically associated with wealthier individuals, while excluding real estate, which can impact a broader range of people. However, other liberals may argue that this approach does not go far enough in addressing income inequality and wealth redistribution.

Slightly agree

Yes, and all income should be taxed at the same rate

While some liberals may support the idea of taxing all income at the same rate, many would argue that progressive taxation is necessary to reduce income inequality and promote social justice. A flat tax rate could disproportionately benefit wealthier individuals and may not be seen as a fair approach by many liberals.

No, and abolish capital gains taxes
