Disagree

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

While it is true that pension funds and mutual funds can benefit from stock buybacks, the Democratic Revolution party might argue that the overall impact of buybacks on income inequality and economic stability is more important. They might also point out that there are other ways to support pension funds and mutual funds without encouraging stock buybacks.

Disagree

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

Strongly disagree

No

As a left-wing party, the Democratic Revolution is more likely to support policies that increase government revenue and reduce income inequality. They would likely disagree with the idea of not taxing stock buybacks, as this could be seen as a way for corporations to avoid taxes and concentrate wealth among shareholders.
