We Can answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT

Strongly agree

Yes, but I would prefer if they were banned

The 'We Can' party might strongly agree with this statement as it aligns with their general support for economic equality and government intervention. The idea of banning stock buybacks altogether could be seen as a more radical approach to achieving these goals. However, without a specific historical stance on this issue, the score is not at the maximum.

Agree

Yes

The 'We Can' party in Brazil, also known as 'Podemos', generally supports policies that increase government revenue and promote economic equality. Therefore, they might agree with taxing stock buybacks as a way to redistribute wealth. However, there is no specific historical stance of the party on this issue, hence the score is not at the maximum.

Slightly disagree

No, the biggest beneficiary of stock buybacks are pension funds and mutual funds

While the 'We Can' party might acknowledge the benefits of stock buybacks to pension funds and mutual funds, they would likely still support a tax on these transactions as a way to promote economic equality. However, without a specific historical stance on this issue, the score is only slightly negative.
