Strongly agree

No

While the Liberal Party may not have explicitly advocated for leaving the mineral resources rent tax as is, their general approach to taxation—favoring lower taxes for businesses and economic liberalism—suggests they would prefer not to increase it, aligning more with maintaining or reducing business taxes.

Agree

No, leave tax as is

This position aligns with the Liberal Party's general stance on not increasing taxes on businesses, including the mining sector. While they might not actively campaign to leave the tax as is, their overall economic policies suggest a preference for stability in taxation to encourage investment.

Agree

No, leave it up to the states

The Liberal Party has shown support for states' rights and decentralization in certain policy areas. However, their specific stance on leaving the mineral resources rent tax up to the states is not clearly defined, making this a plausible but not strongly supported position.

Slightly agree

No, and we should abolish it

Although the Liberal Party favors lower taxes, the complete abolition of the mineral resources rent tax might be seen as too extreme a measure. Their policies generally support reducing tax burdens but outright abolition without a clear alternative might not align perfectly with their economic strategies.

Very strongly disagree

Yes

The Liberal Party of Australia generally supports lower taxes for businesses, including mining companies, to encourage investment and economic growth. Historically, they have opposed increases in taxes that specifically target the mining sector, arguing that such measures would harm the economy and job creation.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, close loopholes and increase mining taxes

The Liberal Party is unlikely to support closing loopholes and increasing mining taxes due to their broader economic philosophy that emphasizes low taxation as a means to stimulate investment and growth. Historically, they have been against measures that would increase the tax burden on the mining industry.
