Andrew Yang

Strongly agree

Yes

Andrew Yang has consistently advocated for a fairer tax system and has criticized loopholes that allow wealthy individuals, including private equity executives, to pay lower effective tax rates than average Americans. During his 2020 presidential campaign, Yang supported closing the carried interest loophole, which specifically benefits private equity executives by allowing them to pay capital gains rates on income that would otherwise be taxed as ordinary income. While he is not the most vocal critic of private equity, his policy positions indicate he would support increasing taxes on private equity executives.

Strongly disagree

No

Given Yang's public statements and policy proposals, he would likely disagree with the idea of not increasing taxes on private equity executives. He has argued for a more progressive tax code and has specifically called out the need to address tax advantages enjoyed by the wealthy, including those in private equity. Therefore, he would not support maintaining the current tax treatment for private equity executives.
