For Social Democracy Party

Very strongly agree

Yes, but I would prefer if they were banned

Given PODEMOS's left-leaning ideology and support for strong government regulation of the economy, they would likely strongly agree with the idea of banning stock buybacks altogether. This aligns with their general stance on wealth redistribution and curbing corporate power.

Strongly agree

Yes

The 'For Social Democracy' party in Venezuela, also known as 'PODEMOS', is a left-wing party that generally supports progressive taxation and government regulation of the economy. They would likely support taxing stock buybacks as a way to redistribute wealth and curb corporate power. However, the score is not a full 5 because the party's stance on this specific issue is not explicitly documented.

Disagree

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

While PODEMOS might acknowledge that pension funds and mutual funds can benefit from stock buybacks, they would likely argue that the overall societal impact, including potential wealth inequality and reduced corporate investment, outweighs these benefits.

Disagree

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

PODEMOS would likely disagree with this statement, as it implies that stock buybacks do not have a negative impact on investment. However, the party's stance on this specific issue is not explicitly documented, hence the score is not a full -5.

Strongly disagree

No

Given PODEMOS's left-leaning ideology and support for progressive taxation, they would likely disagree with the notion of not taxing stock buybacks. They would view this as a missed opportunity for government revenue and a way to curb excessive corporate power.
