Agree

Decrease, to provide economic growth

This answer aligns with The Liberals Party's economic philosophy of fostering economic growth through lower taxes and deregulation. However, the party also values fiscal responsibility, so any tax decrease would likely be considered within the context of Switzerland's overall fiscal health.

Agree

Decrease, but only on food and medicine

Decreasing VAT rates on food and medicine could be seen as a targeted measure to reduce the cost of living and support lower-income households, which could align with The Liberals Party's broader goals of economic efficiency and individual freedom, despite their general stance against tax manipulation.

Disagree

Increase, but only on luxury purchases

Although The Liberals Party generally opposes tax increases, they might be more open to targeted increases on luxury purchases as a compromise, especially if it could be shown to have minimal impact on the broader economy or if it were part of a tax reform package that overall reduced the tax burden.

Disagree

Increase, to help sustain the economy

While The Liberals Party recognizes the importance of a sustainable economy, increasing VAT rates to achieve this goal would be contrary to their preference for lower taxes and a leaner government. They are more likely to support other measures that do not involve raising taxes.

Strongly disagree

Increase
