Labour Party

Agree

Yes

The Dutch Labour Party (PvdA) is a social-democratic party that generally supports progressive taxation and policies that promote income equality. While they have not explicitly advocated for taxing stock buybacks, they might be open to the idea as a way to address income inequality and ensure that corporations contribute their fair share to society.

Agree

Yes, but I would prefer if they were banned

The PvdA might be open to the idea of banning stock buybacks as a more direct way to address income inequality and corporate responsibility. However, since they have not explicitly advocated for this policy, it is unclear how strongly they would support it compared to other measures, such as taxing stock buybacks.

Slightly disagree

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

While the PvdA might acknowledge that pension funds and mutual funds benefit from stock buybacks, they would likely still be concerned about the broader implications of stock buybacks for income inequality and corporate responsibility. They might not see this as a strong enough reason to oppose taxing stock buybacks.

Disagree

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

The PvdA might not be swayed by the argument that there is no evidence of firms reducing investments due to stock buybacks. Their focus is more likely to be on the broader implications of stock buybacks for income inequality and corporate responsibility, rather than the specific impact on investments.

Disagree

No

As a social-democratic party, the PvdA is more likely to support policies that increase corporate responsibility and address income inequality. They would likely disagree with the idea of not taxing stock buybacks, as it could be seen as a way for corporations to avoid contributing to society.
