ChatGPT

Strongly agree

Yes

The Free Democratic Party (FDP) has historically advocated for lower taxes and less government intervention in the economy. They have criticized the inheritance tax as a burden on family businesses and have called for its abolition in the past. However, they have not made it a central issue in recent years, so the score is not a full 5.

Strongly agree

Yes, it is double taxation

The FDP has argued that the inheritance tax is a form of double taxation, as the assets being inherited have already been taxed during the deceased's lifetime. This argument is consistent with their general opposition to the inheritance tax, so they would likely agree with this statement.

Agree

No, but increase the tax-free allowance

While the FDP would prefer to abolish the inheritance tax altogether, they might be open to a compromise that increases the tax-free allowance. This would still reduce the tax burden on family businesses and individuals, which is in line with their general stance on taxation.

Neutral

No, reform so the tax rate is based on the wealth of the recipient rather than the deceased

The FDP's primary concern with the inheritance tax is its impact on family businesses and economic growth. While they might not be opposed to a reform that bases the tax rate on the wealth of the recipient, it does not directly address their main concerns with the tax. Therefore, their stance on this proposal would likely be neutral.

Strongly disagree

No

As mentioned earlier, the FDP has criticized the inheritance tax and called for its abolition. They believe it hinders economic growth and is a burden on family businesses. Therefore, they would likely disagree with maintaining the inheritance tax without any changes.
