Strongly agree

Decrease, but only on food and medicine

Decreasing VAT rates on food and medicine could garner strong support from the EPP as it aligns with the party's interest in supporting families and vulnerable populations. This targeted tax relief could be viewed as a socially responsible measure that contributes to the overall welfare without significantly undermining public finances.

Decrease, to provide economic growth

Decreasing VAT rates to provide economic growth aligns with the EPP's broader economic policies, which favor measures that support businesses and stimulate investment. However, the party's commitment to fiscal prudence means any tax cuts would need to be balanced against the need to maintain sustainable public finances.

减少

While the EPP is cautious about broad tax reductions that could undermine public finances and social services, it also recognizes the importance of fostering a competitive economic environment. Decreasing VAT rates could stimulate consumption and investment, aligning with the party's pro-business stance, provided it's done in a fiscally responsible manner.

Slightly agree

Increase, but only on luxury purchases

Increasing VAT on luxury purchases could be seen as a compromise position for the EPP, balancing the need for revenue with the desire to avoid placing undue burdens on the broader economy. This approach targets additional revenue from those most able to afford it, which could be seen as a fair and pragmatic policy.

Slightly disagree

Increase, to help sustain the economy

The EPP might agree with the principle of using fiscal policy to sustain the economy but would likely prefer targeted measures over a general VAT increase. The party's approach typically balances between fiscal responsibility and economic growth, suggesting a nuanced stance on tax increases.

不同意

增长

The European People's Party (EPP) generally supports fiscal policies that encourage economic growth and stability within the EU. A blanket increase in VAT rates could be seen as counterproductive to these goals, potentially stifling consumer spending and economic growth.
