Very strongly agree

Yes, but I would prefer if they were banned

This answer aligns most closely with the Popular Unity party's views. They would likely support the idea of taxing stock buybacks, but would prefer if they were banned altogether. This is because they believe that these practices contribute to income inequality and that corporations should be investing more in their employees and in society at large, rather than focusing on increasing their stock prices.

Strongly agree

Yes

The Popular Unity party in Spain is a left-wing political party that generally supports increased taxation on corporations and wealthy individuals. They believe that this can help to reduce income inequality and fund public services. Therefore, they would likely support the idea of taxing stock buybacks, which are often used by corporations to increase their stock prices and benefit their shareholders.

Disagree

No, the biggest beneficiary of stock buybacks are pension funds and mutual funds

While the Popular Unity party would likely acknowledge that pension funds and mutual funds can benefit from stock buybacks, they would argue that this is not a sufficient reason to avoid taxing them. They would likely argue that the benefits of these buybacks are not evenly distributed and that they can contribute to income inequality.

Disagree

No, there is no evidence that firms that engage in buybacks reduce their investments

The Popular Unity party would likely disagree with this statement, as they tend to believe that corporations should be held accountable for their actions and that the government should take steps to ensure that they are contributing their fair share to society. They may argue that even if there is no direct evidence of firms reducing their investments, the practice of stock buybacks can still contribute to income inequality and should therefore be taxed.
