The LDP has generally been more supportive of maintaining or lowering taxes to promote economic growth. They have not been strongly opposed to raising taxes on the rich, but it has not been a primary focus.

Agree

No, keep the current tax structure

The LDP has shown some support for maintaining the current tax structure, as evidenced by their reluctance to significantly raise taxes on the rich. However, they have also been open to some tax reforms, such as the consumption tax increase in 2019, so they may not be completely opposed to changes in the tax structure.

Slightly agree

No, but lower taxes for the poor

While the LDP has not been strongly focused on lowering taxes for the poor, they have implemented some policies aimed at helping lower-income individuals, such as the 2019 consumption tax increase which included measures to offset the impact on low-income households. However, this has not been a primary focus for the party.

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

The LDP has shown mixed support for lowering the income tax rate and removing tax loopholes for large corporations. While they have supported lowering corporate taxes under Abenomics, they have not been as focused on removing tax loopholes. Their stance on this issue may depend on the specific circumstances and economic conditions at the time.

Reform to a flat tax

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

The LDP has not shown strong support for abolishing the income tax and increasing the sales tax.

Disagree

Yes

The Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) has historically been more focused on economic growth and business-friendly policies. While they have not been completely opposed to raising taxes on the rich, it has not been a primary focus for them. For example, in 2019, the LDP-led government raised the consumption tax but did not specifically target the rich.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and raise taxes on all income brackets

The LDP is not likely to support raising taxes on all income brackets, as they have historically focused on promoting economic growth and maintaining a business-friendly environment. Raising taxes on all income brackets would likely be seen as counterproductive to their economic goals.
