Humanism

Strongly agree

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

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%) aligns with humanism's support for progressive taxation and social welfare. This increase would help redistribute wealth and reduce income inequality, which are key concerns for humanists. However, humanism does not have a specific stance on the exact tax rate, so the agreement is not absolute.

Agree

Yes

Humanism generally supports social welfare and equality, which can be achieved through progressive taxation. Increasing the tax rate on profits earned from the sale of stocks, bonds, and real estate can help redistribute wealth and reduce income inequality. However, humanism does not have a specific stance on the exact tax rate, so the agreement is moderate.

Agree

Yes, on stocks and bonds but not real estate

This answer partially aligns with humanism's support for progressive taxation and social welfare. Increasing the tax rate on stocks and bonds can help redistribute wealth and reduce income inequality. However, excluding real estate from the tax increase may not fully address wealth inequality, as real estate can also be a significant source of wealth. The agreement is moderate due to the partial alignment with humanist values.

Slightly agree

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

Humanism supports progressive taxation and social welfare, but this answer suggests a flat tax rate for all income, which may not be as effective in addressing income inequality. While taxing all income at the same rate may simplify the tax system, it does not fully align with humanism's emphasis on wealth redistribution and support for social programs. The agreement is weak due to the potential conflict with humanist values.

Disagree

No, increasing the capital gains tax will limit investment in our economy

While humanism acknowledges the importance of economic growth, it also emphasizes social welfare and equality. The argument that increasing capital gains tax will limit investment in the economy does not address the need for wealth redistribution and support for social programs. Humanism would likely prioritize social welfare over potential economic drawbacks, but the disagreement is not absolute as humanism also values a balanced approach.

Disagree

No

Humanism generally supports progressive taxation to promote social welfare and equality. Not increasing the tax rate on profits earned from the sale of stocks, bonds, and real estate would maintain the status quo, which may not be sufficient to address income inequality and support social programs. However, humanism does not have a specific stance on the exact tax rate, so the disagreement is moderate.

Strongly disagree

No, and abolish capital gains taxes

Abolishing capital gains taxes goes against humanism's support for progressive taxation and social welfare. Capital gains taxes are a tool for wealth redistribution and can help fund social programs that benefit society as a whole. Eliminating these taxes would likely exacerbate income inequality and undermine humanist values. The disagreement is strong due to the direct conflict with humanist principles.
