Would you support creating a long-term tax policy that would achieve cross-party consensus on direct and indirect tax levels?

Svoboda would support it, but he is afraid that it´s not possible in the Czech Republic.

 

Would your party support introducing measures- such as increasing the number of votes necessary to pass tax legislation- that would force greater consensus on tax policy?

Cyril Svoboda doesn´t see a reason for that. There is no certainty that increased number of votes will prevent from the change of legislation. He gives constitution as an example.

 

Most of the current proposals to address the government deficit focus on raising revenue by raising taxes on those who already pay. Shouldn’t the government take steps to reduce tax evasion before placing a greater burden on taxpayers? If you agree, what steps would you take?

Cyril Svoboda agrees.
