Chapter 442 - Matching of Responsibilities and Rights

"Tax reform? Hehe, Wei Hong, how did you come up with this?

Mr. Hong hadn't asked yet, but the old man had already asked with interest. In the past, when we implemented a planned economy, the central government had a strong controlling power, and the fiscal and taxation system was not the decisive means. So for quite a long time, the Finance Bureau and the Tax Bureau were even merged together, called the Finance and Taxation Bureau. In the past few years, the fiscal and taxation system has been gradually opened up, and some attempts have been made in the field of market economy, and the fiscal and taxation system has been upside down, and the drawbacks of the central government's insufficient financial resources have gradually become apparent. The official post bar is quickly updated and shared with you

In fact, the issue of tax reform has been raised by scholars and experts in the past two years, but it has only been discussed on a very small scale, and no resolution has been formed, and there has been no consensus on a small scale. Especially in the past two years, the political landscape has been unstable, and the attention of the top management has not been on this.

Liu Weihong hurriedly said: "Grandpa, I also think about it casually. ”

"Hehe, you're still very modest. It's not to tell you, it's just small talk, what comes to mind, don't be taboo. ”

The old man seems to blame, but in fact his face is full of love. The young man has such insight, it is really unexpected, the old Liu family is about to go out for a thousand miles, how can the old man be unhappy?

Mr. Hong said: "Tax reform is very difficult......

In the current tax system, local governments take the lion's share, collect taxes on their own, and then issue a certain percentage of taxes to the central government. Often, local governments will try to keep a little extra money in their hands in case they need it. If, in accordance with Liu Weihong's idea, the tax reform is carried out and the financial resources are concentrated in the central government, it will inevitably meet with extremely strong opposition from the local government. Who wants to take out the "benefits" they have in their hands? The official post bar is quickly updated and shared with you

Liu Weihong said: "Vice Premier Hong, the tax reform is indeed difficult, but it is imperative. With all due respect, the central government's lack of financial resources may not only be due to its insufficient macroeconomic regulation and control capabilities, but may even directly affect the authority of the central government. Our country is so big and populous that it is unimaginable without a strong central authority. ”

The faces of the old man and Mr. Hong became grim.

Liu Weihong said that "the authority is insufficient", and the actual soil has already shown signs of appearing, and local governments have done their own things from time to time. This is true not only in the field of economic construction, but also in other fields. In many provinces and cities, the localist forces are very strong, and the "self-respecting ...... of supporting the army" has even been privately jokingly called a "game" between the local government and the central government.

"Comrade Xiao Liu, then do you have any specific suggestions?"

Mr. Hong asked cautiously.

Liu Weihong said: "To change this situation of inverted tax system, the only way to implement the tax sharing system is to implement it. The tax source tax is divided into two, and the central government directly establishes tax agencies in various localities to collect taxes directly. However, the implementation of such a tax-sharing system requires comprehensive consideration and comprehensive measurement. It is necessary to introduce a supporting administrative system. Primarily, it is the responsibility of the local authorities that must be clearly divided. The construction that should be undertaken by the central government should be funded by the central government, and the construction and responsibilities that should be undertaken by the provincial government should be completed by the provincial government. Otherwise, if the financial resources are collected at all levels, the pressure will be delegated from level to level, and the county-level and even district-level and township-level governments will be overburdened with excessive responsibilities and will not have sufficient financial resources, which will only lead to the overwhelming of the grass-roots political power organs and the possibility that they will not be able to complete the tasks assigned by the higher-ups. To put it simply, while collecting the financial resources of grassroots governments, it is also necessary to reduce their responsibilities. Responsibilities and powers should be matched. ”

What Liu Weihong said is actually the actual situation of grassroots governments across the country in 10 years. However, this matching of responsibilities and rights has never been effectively resolved until Liu Weihong's rebirth. Especially in the years when the tax-sharing system was first introduced, the grass-roots political power, which was accustomed to a "prosperous life", suddenly became short of money and had no money to spend, but it still had to feed more and more workers, and the only way was to pass it on to the masses. There are all kinds of co-ordination fees and retention funds, and there are many kinds of tricks.

These are the various "fees" that exist outside of the formal tax channels...... In fact, it is a disguised tax hike that has led to very serious social problems. It was at this time that the relationship between cadres and the masses changed from harmony to tension, and even evolved into "hostility" in some places.

From the point of view of the development of the country as a whole, a tax-sharing system is imperative. However, if the tax system is only reformed without supporting measures, it will jeopardize the foundation of the ruling party's legitimate governance. After all, those who directly face the masses are all grassroots party and government organizations. The relationship between these grassroots political powers and the masses has become bad, and the image of the entire ruling party and government will be seriously damaged.

"Responsibilities and rights match? Well, well said, it makes sense! ”

Mr. Hong couldn't help but say with admiration. Official, please go to the official's house to post it

Liu Weihong did not feel relaxed. Originally, he just wanted to take this opportunity to remind Vice Premier Hong, but his mind became extremely active, thinking about many unjust social phenomena in later generations and the root causes of these social phenomena. It is too difficult to really solve these problems, Liu Weihong's mood is very heavy, and he does not have the pleasure of "inviting pets in a word."

Seeing Liu Weihong's eyebrows frowning slightly, Mr. Hong became more interested and asked, "Comrade Weihong, if you have any other golden and jade words, take them out." Hehe, I'm listening to you today. ”

Liu Bihong hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Vice Premier Hong, I don't dare to listen to it, I just casually put forward some suggestions." Another issue is the restructuring of state-owned enterprises. ”

"Restructuring of state-owned enterprises?"

"Yes. Our state-owned enterprises and collective enterprises, at the present stage, are all products of the planned economy. Over the years, they have been accustomed to obeying the arrangements and scheduling of their superiors, and basically only complete a processing process, which is fundamentally different from the actual sense of the enterprise. In other words, under the planned economic system, the whole country is a big enterprise, and our existing enterprises owned by the whole people and collectively are the production workshops and teams of the state, a large enterprise. The individual enterprises that have just emerged are outsourced processing units. Once we enter the era of market economy, it will be very difficult for us, the state-owned enterprises and collective enterprises, to adapt to the market. They don't have their own complete management system, nor do they have a complete sales system, let alone business philosophy and management philosophy. Pure processing enterprises, independently facing the market, participating in market competition, the difficulty is unimaginable. What's more, our public-owned enterprises still have extremely heavy burdens, such as the resettlement of retired workers and workers' children. Allowing these enterprises to directly enter the market competition is like letting a soldier with a load of more than 50 kilograms go to the battlefield to fight the enemy with bayonets, and the result can be imagined. The system of public-owned enterprises is rigid and their competitiveness is poor, and it is difficult for them to survive without restructuring. But how can the system be changed? After the restructuring, how to resettle retired workers? How to settle workers in bankrupt enterprises? How to prevent the loss of state-owned assets is an issue that must be carefully considered. ”

To Wei Hong said slowly. Official, please go to the official's house to post it

The restructuring of state-owned enterprises was also carried out during Premier Hong's administration, and it also formed certain social problems, so Liu Weihong took this opportunity to raise them one by one.

Mr. Hong's face became extremely solemn. As a matter of fact, after the implementation of the market economy, the question of the survival and development of public-owned enterprises was already pondered repeatedly when he was in charge of the pearl. In the transition from a planned economy to a market economy, Mingzhu and other economically developed cities are bound to be in the forefront of the country, and it is impossible for those in power not to carefully consider such an issue.

"The public-owned economy is the main body of China's economy. If this area cannot be smoothly transitioned, it will cause great damage to the national economy. The adverse social impact will also be great. Therefore, I suggest that the pilot can be carried out on a small scale now. Give enough policy support, but only give policy support, and in terms of funds, we can't give too much. Otherwise, the significance of the pilot will be lost. The pilot experience produced according to the standard model is lifeless. Give them the policy, and let them figure it out for themselves. Regardless of victory or defeat, you can accumulate a certain amount of experience to teach you. ”

Liu Weihong didn't wait for Mr. Hong to ask, and said his suggestion.

This question is too complicated, and although Liu Weihong is a reborn, it is difficult for him to fully express his opinions for a while. Moreover, the memory of rebirth can only provide him with a general direction, and some detailed problems must be found in practice to find effective solutions.

Mr. Hong's face gradually returned to normal, smiled slightly, and said: "Comrade Weihong, you are still very angry, you have the bearing of a leader, and you only grasp the general direction."

Liu Weihong hurriedly owed a debt and said, "Don't dare." I'm just saying some of my crude thoughts, and if I can use it as a reference, it will be a bonus. ”

"Hehe, Comrade Weihong, you are too modest. Since ancient times, heroes have come out of teenagers, this sentence is very reasonable. ”

Mr. Hong laughed heartily.

It can be seen that his mood is relatively happy. This long conversation with Liu Weihong did give him some inspiration. Liu Lao, the grandson, has extraordinary vision.

Old Man Liu smiled and said: "Comrade Zhizheng, Wei Li is young, and some of his opinions are still relatively shallow, I hope you will give him more guidance." ”

It's not easy for the old man to be able to say this. Even from a secular point of view, this is asking Mr. Hong to "take care" of Liu Weihong.

Mr. Hong hurriedly humbled a few words. Seeing that it was not too early, Mr. Hong got up and said goodbye.

The old man didn't keep much, and said with a smile: "Weihong, send Comrade Zhizheng on my behalf." ”

"Yes, Grandpa." Official, please go to the official's house to post it

Liu Weihong sent the guests on behalf of the old man and sent them all the way to the outside of the Green Pine Garden.

Mr. Hong held his hand and said with a smile: "Comrade Weihong, do a good job." I believe that as long as you work hard, you will be able to get on a big enough stage. ”

"Yes, thank you for your encouragement."

Liu Weihong replied respectfully.
