Chapter 129: Prelude to Death
"But it's not OK to not pay high taxes to high-income people." Lu Hui, who is still a junior college student and is not very clear about salary and taxes, expressed his opinion with confidence.
"Reason?" Limu adjusted his sitting position and leaned comfortably on the beach chair. The others also sat down in their respective chairs.
"Watching them make so much money, and if they don't increase taxes, how can they do it? At least we people don't agree to the tax change." Li Chishu understood his daughter's idea.
What she said is the truth. No matter where the country finally uses taxation, the rich man's income of 100 million will have to be taken away by the state for 45 million, which is something that ordinary citizens like. However, it is indeed an indisputable fact that the country can receive 45% of the tax from these people.
With the total amount of national income unchanged, if 7% of people have 80% of their wealth (my country's proportion), the state can get at least 80%*45% by taxing them - statistics calculate that they can collect 35% of the total national profit from the rich. But if the wealth is evenly distributed to the nationals across the country, how much money can they receive according to the tax ratio?
From the perspective of government taxation, from the perspective of mentality—
When beggars, bun shops, cloth shops and other middle- and low-income classes are all added together and compared with developers, gangs are undoubtedly more inclined to hold umbrellas for developers. This status quo will not change as long as they are not completely collapsed. They allocate a little money for people's livelihood and make the people grateful.
"Just, can high taxes curb the development of high-income people? If I give you 10 million, will you give up and continue to make money in the face of an investment opportunity of 20 million? No, right? Even in the feudal era, the government collected as much as 70% or 80%, the landlords were still constantly annexing the land, so it is purely nonsense to suppress it."
Taxation - "monthly money" is the ultimate means and ultimate goal of the gang. If you set up a few blocks and gain rule, isn't it just to make money and develop? Of course, other means must be excluded here. For example, if the dollars occupy the Nanhua District, they will definitely not use porn, gambling, or poison to quench their thirst.
"Besides, the tax revenue of our civilians is not low..."
It is said that it is to charge high taxes for rich people, but the actual tax rate paid by the people is not low, ranking second in the world.
"When it comes to welfare, anyone with a discerning eye can see it? Can we compare countries like Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United States? Don't talk about poor countries like Africa. Our welfare is actually worse than that of Somalia, Africa..."
Needless to say, the actual situation of national welfare is self-evident. People who are in this acre of three parts should have an understanding.
Public expenses such as welfare, education, health, and social security enjoyed by our citizens only account for 8% of tax revenue, and most of the people who enjoy these benefits are officials and civil servants (such as the dual-track pension system). The welfare ratios of various countries account for fiscal ratios, including 42% in the United States, 49% in the United Kingdom, 52% in Canada, and 8% in my country. The welfare difference is not that our country has too much population, which leads to less welfare, but that the country has not given the 40% it should give at all.
In this way, when talking about the lack of social security and the pension needs to be filled in the next generation, the majestic simulated White House Town Zhengfu Building was built...
"Son, why are you always against them today? Don't always talk about this," said Li Xiuli.
"What's more pitiful than being a Chinese? We all know this principle." Li Chi Shu had a deep understanding, or... these things are actually known to everyone on earth.
"In fact, it is a bit difficult for Zhengzhou to improve the country's economy in such a short period of time from the 1950s to the present 50 years. I have a deep understanding of this point and its great achievements are indelible.
"Other countries rely on plunder to accumulate original capital, but in the Qing Dynasty, I missed this good opportunity and became the target of plunder..." Li Mu paused for a moment and continued:
"…So the zheng government turned the target of plundering internally, plundering people's wealth more than other countries. But I think our country has passed the period of accumulating primitive capital, right?"
"What do you mean by saying this?" Mo Moxin asked.
If we talk about the depth of the topic, Li Mu's statement that goes to the bottom line is obviously a headache, so it is better to just follow him to the center of the topic.
"The lower part is the upper part." The voice of Limu contains irresistible power.
Mo Moxin couldn't help but shudder when she heard these three words. Lu Hui nodded in a vague way. Li Xiuli suddenly remembered something and looked at Li Mu.
"Treat death, son, do you want to rebel?!" she was speechless.
"Mom, I'm just a comic book artist, not a speaker like Hitler. I just think the taxes are unreasonable and I hope someone can change them." Li Mu on the recliner glanced at her mother, sat up leisurely and picked up the coconut fruit.
Li Xiuli was a little nervous. When she saw her son making fun of her easily, she seemed to have no intention of growing from "Qilinzi" to "Dragonzi" and "Son of Heaven", she breathed comfortably. She didn't have much wish in her life, as long as her son was safe and sound.
"Then how do you think taxes should be collected? Do the opposite, and the tax rate for high-income earners should be minimized?" Mo Moxin tried to ask.
If the income is higher and the tax is lower, the tax will be collected. In order to increase their fiscal revenue, state officials will definitely try to reverse the flow of funds to the poor. Until a state of complete balance between the whole nation is reached, the fiscal revenue and expenditure ratio will truly reach saturation, and thus initially enter the door of utopia.
"This is unrealistic. As Aunt Li said, everyone except the rich will definitely oppose it." Li Mu lay down happily in her arms and said almost cruelly: "The best way is to maintain the original tax rate, but the dollar can only be 10% from everyone. The ratio is the same regardless of wealth and honor, and there is no discriminatory nature. This is the real fairness. Even if the beggar only asks for 10 yuan a day, he still has to give it to the gangster."
One dollar is given if you only have ten yuan. It seems cruel, but it is not. If you make 100 yuan and pay 100 yuan to collect taxes, and then pay 100 yuan to collect taxes, the tax ratio is truly fair. Just like the extra points system for ethnic minorities in the college entrance examination, it was thought that establishing an extra social system would highlight social fairness, but this fairness allowed the powerful to take advantage of loopholes.
In fact, there are loopholes to take advantage of tax revenue. Just like Li xx, he manages 22 listed companies with a market value of more than HK$850 billion, and his total assets under his personal name also reach HK$290 billion. Such a person who manages HK$1 trillion has a team that specifically finds ways to reduce taxes. If he can save him one-tenth of the tax revenue by hiring a team of 10 million yuan, it is also quite considerable.
Besides, the team is a professional team that specializes in tax avoidance. Every morning and evening, they are thinking about ways to avoid taxes. No matter what, they cannot just help him avoid 100 million or 200 million yuan. It is not that billionaires cannot afford taxes, but that they do not want to use the money they have worked hard to exploit by those people. If they can save it and donate it to charity, they will be happy.
"The extra taxes, namely 45%-10%, 35%-10%, 25%-10%, 15%-10%, these taxes are all used for welfare and are not allowed to be used for any other purpose. In order to ensure the purity of this part of the tax, it is best to establish a completely neutral and completely transparent private welfare organization. The extra taxes will be collected by the welfare organization to avoid the temptation of high-income people's high taxes on the country." Limu said.
If a neutral and transparent charitable organization "eats" taxes and keeps the country's taxes at the same level in every class, the government will change its previous state and treat the people equally, so as to seek social stability as the basis for national development. At the same time, neutral charitable organizations will bring national welfare levels back to the world's top level.
"This is impossible!" Mo Moxin screamed.
"Yes, this is impossible (unless--)" On the recliner, Limu sucked the furry coconut and had an unpredictable smile on her face.
