Two sessions on tax cuts voices rising in tandem. Premier Wen Jiabao in his government work report made it clear that the implementation of structural tax cuts "as one of the priorities for this year. The latest data released by the Ministry of Finance, 2011 National tax revenue of close to 9 trillion yuan reached 8.972 trillion yuan, an increase of 22.6%. At the same time, the fiscal revenue of over 10 trillion yuan, up 10.374 trillion yuan, an increase of 24.8%. Two indicators is much higher than the GDP (gross domestic product) growth rate of 9.2 percent GDP growth last year. Bring the two results: First, the public's "tax misery" increased happiness discount; is itself the plight of numerous small and medium enterprises and worse. Therefore, a tax is not only beneficial to people's livelihood, is more conducive to the overall development. Now all walks of life will be signs at the indirect taxes. Zibin, president of the China Association of Small and Medium Enterprises in the PRD research that generally reflect the local tax burden is 50%. In addition to the income tax would take away 25%, the rest there are thirty kinds, fees such as education tax, urban construction tax, price regulation fund and other miscellaneous taxes 18 categories, 60. In order to maintain the normal operation of enterprises, indirect taxes and administrative charges will naturally be in disguise passed on to consumers, such as bread and other basic information of life contain the exorbitant taxes and levies. Lenovo Group, a member of the CPPCC National Committee, CEO Yang Yuanqing also bluntly: not only high-end consumer goods abroad cheaper than domestic, Nike shoes, consumer packaged goods, "Our Lenovo in the country there is no way to sell inexpensive, 17% VAT must be added to the price which , but the product gross margin of 15%. He asked: China's per capita income is only 1/10, why do they cost 20% -50% of the price to buy the same product?
Even if the tax cuts has become a social consensus, and have the financial resources of the State, but the smooth implementation of, yet to the matching of deep institutional change. First, at the cusp of public opinion on the tax department and not independently to complete the tax cut task. Structural tax reduction means "two high a capital" industry can not be reduced, strategic emerging industries in relation to the implementation of tax cuts, business tax and the VAT threshold of small micro-enterprises should further improve the small micro-enterprise income tax in half levied. But its implementation in place, we must fully cooperate with the Ministry of Industry, Development and Reform Commission, Ministry of Commerce and other functional departments, the trouble is a long time are first received and then returned to operation, often in disguised form evolved into the "run advance" situation, in disguise open the door to the abuse of power, ultimately lose or power small path of the small and medium-sized private enterprises. But not really restrict tax cuts specific operation of the program. As we all know, the implementation of the tax system since 1994, the central and local eating in separate kitchens, in addition to wealthy and poor, the formation of a certain degree of national wealth to the poor. Guangdong Local Taxation Bureau Secretary Wang Nanjian representative said: 100 yuan of GDP, the Central Committee took the 55 yuan. "In order to complete the tasks and targets non-stop to raise the local government can only engage in land finance, and even increase the fees, even issued unrealistic indicators of financial and tax increases, "This is forcing the local evil. The evidence is: townships regime heavily indebted, a total of around 14 trillion yuan. These burdens, often through a "chaos" passed on to the head of the enterprises and the public.
More serious problem is the National People's Congress, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, former deputy secretary Liu Xirong disclosure of reality: "The people then hard-working, also could not afford so many official!" Said Liu Xirong four years ago, the civil service is $ 600 million, is now increased to 10 million people, more than 100 million people a year. Liu Xirong said: "Now in some places arbitrary institution institutions chaos given level; number of leadership positions, and the excessive number of civil servants. Some townships hundreds of cadres, cars parked several rows; Secretary-General of the local government more than a dozen, each Secretary long should a house with a car, these expenses are ultimately the people pay. " In fact, this data is conservative: According to the 2009 cause of human rights progress "As of 2009, a total of 2.9 million ethnic minority cadres in China, accounting for 7.4% of the total number of civil servants, thus calculated, the Chinese civil servants should have 39.18 million people. If we add in disguise the royal food employees at the senior management of the central enterprises, government, non-staff, this data will be even more alarming. This reveals a major incentive for taxes and heavy: too many officials, people could not afford. Liu Xirong prescription as soon as possible, the preparation method, the size of the employer by the various departments and regions set up official into the orbit of the rule of law, and accept the supervision of the taxpayer. In addition, the Chinese cadres, despite abolition of welfare tenure, has been followed welfare tenure, the formation of not only into the heavy burden of dependents, and foreign president to step down immediately form a great contrast to fend for themselves. Of course, the most fundamental measure or as soon as possible in accordance with the requirements of the "small government, big society", as soon as possible administrative institutional change, in accordance with the service requirements of the Government of the transformation of functions, general and administration according to law, turned to the people from competing with private profit. I remember a comprehensive institutional reforms of the last government already in 1998, when Prime Minister Zhu Rongji said: even in front of the minefield, the abyss, but also courage, devotion to duty unto death have. Therefore, a comprehensive adjustment of the tax cut is not just economic policy, but also depends on the administrative system of deep change.
