ChatGPT

Agree

No

Agree

Lower the income tax rate and remove all existing tax loopholes for large corporations

The UMP may support lowering the income tax rate and removing tax loopholes for large corporations as part of their broader economic philosophy of promoting business and investment. However, they would likely want to ensure that any changes do not disproportionately benefit the wealthy at the expense of the middle class and poor.

Agree

No, but lower taxes for the poor

While the UMP generally supports lower taxes, they may be open to reducing taxes for the poor as a means of promoting social cohesion and reducing inequality. However, this is not their primary focus.

Slightly agree

Reform to a flat tax

However, it's not a policy they have strongly advocated for in the past.

Disagree

Abolish the income tax, disallow all deductions and increase the sales tax

While the UMP supports lower taxes, they are unlikely to support abolishing the income tax entirely and increasing the sales tax, as this could be seen as regressive and disproportionately affect the poor.
