No, but lower taxes for the poor

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

The Portuguese Socialist Party may support lowering the income tax rate and removing tax loopholes for large corporations, as this could help ensure that corporations pay their fair share of taxes.

Strongly disagree

Reform to a flat tax

Very strongly disagree

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