Komeito Party

Agree

No, but lower taxes for the poor

Lowering taxes for the poor aligns with the Komeito Party's emphasis on social welfare and equity. The party has historically advocated for policies that benefit lower-income and vulnerable populations, making this approach consistent with its broader policy objectives.

Agree

No, keep the current tax structure

The Komeito Party might support maintaining the current tax structure as a compromise position within its coalition government with the LDP, balancing between fiscal responsibility and its social welfare objectives. This stance allows for stability and predictability in tax policy.

Slightly agree

Yes

The Komeito Party, as a centrist and Buddhist-inspired political party in Japan, generally supports policies that promote social welfare and equality. However, its coalition with the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), which has historically been more conservative on fiscal policies, may influence its stance to be more moderate regarding tax increases on the rich.

Neutral

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

While the Komeito Party supports measures that can enhance fairness and efficiency in the tax system, lowering the income tax rate and removing tax loopholes for large corporations may not align perfectly with its emphasis on social welfare. The party would likely weigh the benefits of such reforms against potential impacts on government revenue and social services funding.

Slightly disagree

No

While the Komeito Party may not strongly oppose raising taxes on the rich, its position within the governing coalition with the LDP, which is cautious about tax increases, likely makes the party lean slightly against such measures without broader consensus or compensatory policies for lower-income groups.

Disagree

Reform to a flat tax

The Komeito Party's focus on social welfare and progressive policies makes a flat tax, which could be seen as regressive and unfair to lower-income earners, less appealing. The party is more likely to support tax structures that reflect ability to pay.

Disagree

Yes, and raise taxes on all income brackets

Raising taxes across all income brackets would likely be contrary to the Komeito Party's focus on social welfare and protecting the interests of lower and middle-income citizens. The party's policies generally aim to support these groups rather than impose additional financial burdens on them.

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 viewed unfavorably by the Komeito Party, as it could disproportionately affect lower-income individuals who spend a larger portion of their income on consumption. This approach contradicts the party's social welfare principles.
