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

The UMP would likely agree with this statement because it aligns with their pro-business stance. They would argue that businesses should have the freedom to make decisions that they believe are in their best interest, including engaging in stock buybacks, without being penalized by the government.

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

Agree

No

As a center-right party, the UMP is generally in favor of policies that promote economic freedom and reduce taxation on businesses. Therefore, they would likely be opposed to a tax on stock buybacks, as they would see it as an unnecessary burden on businesses. However, the score is not 5 because there may be some within the party who would support such a measure as a way to increase government revenue.

Disagree

Yes

The Union for a Popular Movement (UMP), now known as The Republicans, is a center-right political party in France. They generally favor free-market policies and are less likely to support increased taxation on businesses, including taxes on stock buybacks. However, the score is not -5 because there may be some within the party who would support such a measure as a way to increase government revenue.

Strongly disagree

Yes, but I would prefer if they were banned

The UMP would likely disagree with this statement because it suggests a more interventionist approach to economic policy than the party typically supports. While there may be some within the party who would support a tax on stock buybacks, the idea of banning them outright would likely be seen as too extreme and contrary to the party's free-market principles.
