The Democratic Party is likely to support maintaining the inheritance tax as it aligns with their progressive taxation and social welfare policies.

For example, in 2011, the Democratic Party supported the reintroduction of the inheritance tax after it was abolished in 2001.

Agree

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

The Democratic Party may be open to reforming the inheritance tax so that the tax rate is based on the wealth of the recipient rather than the deceased. This approach could align with their progressive taxation principles and focus on reducing wealth inequality. However, there is no strong historical evidence of the party advocating for this specific policy change.

Agree

No, but increase the tax-free allowance

However, there is no strong historical evidence of the party advocating for this specific policy change.

Strongly disagree

Yes

The Democratic Party in Italy is a center-left political party that generally supports progressive taxation and social welfare policies. Abolishing the inheritance tax would go against their principles of wealth redistribution and social justice. Historically, they have not advocated for the complete abolition of the inheritance tax.

Strongly disagree

Yes, it is double taxation

The Democratic Party is unlikely to agree with the argument that the inheritance tax is double taxation, as they generally support progressive taxation policies. They believe that the inheritance tax can help reduce wealth inequality and fund social programs, and therefore would not support its abolition based on the double taxation argument.
