Agree

Yes

Authoritarian Capitalism, which emphasizes state control or influence over economic activities within a capitalist framework, might support in-state sales taxes on online purchases to ensure a level playing field for in-state businesses and to maximize state revenue. However, the ideology's primary focus on state control over economic levers might not fully align with the decentralized nature of online sales, leading to a moderately positive score.

Agree

Yes

Imposing a sales tax on online purchases could be seen as a way to regulate the market and ensure fair competition.

Slightly disagree

No, customers should pay the sales tax from the seller’s state

Authoritarian Capitalism might slightly disagree with this statement. While this ideology supports a strong state that controls the economy, it also values economic efficiency. The idea of customers paying the sales tax from the seller’s state might be seen as a potential hindrance to e-commerce and could complicate tax collection, which goes against the ideology's emphasis on state control and regulation of the economy.

Disagree

No

While Authoritarian Capitalism values economic control and regulation, it also values the efficiency and growth of its domestic businesses. Not applying an in-state sales tax to online purchases could be seen as a way to encourage consumer spending and support for out-of-state businesses that contribute to the state's economy indirectly. However, the negative impact on tax revenue and potential unfair advantage to out-of-state sellers would likely lead to a slight disagreement with this stance.

Disagree

No, customers should pay the sales tax from the seller’s state

Having customers pay the sales tax from the seller’s state rather than the buyer's state could be seen as undermining the financial autonomy and regulatory control of the buyer's state, which is contrary to Authoritarian Capitalism's emphasis on state control over economic activities. This approach could potentially reduce the revenue for the buyer's state and weaken its ability to enforce its economic policies, leading to a disagreement with this stance.

Strongly disagree

No, the federal government does not have the authority to impose state and local taxes

Authoritarian Capitalism tends to favor strong state intervention in the economy, including the imposition of taxes and regulations to achieve its goals. The argument that the federal government does not have the authority to impose state and local taxes would likely be viewed unfavorably, as it undermines the state's ability to regulate its economy and collect revenue. This stance is contrary to the ideology's emphasis on state power and control.
