(The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China · Observation) The new statement of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China reveals new trends in income distribution
China News Agency, Beijing, October 17 (Reporter Li Jinlei) "Regulate the order of income distribution, standardize the wealth accumulation mechanism", "Encourage hard work to become rich, and promote fair opportunities"... The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China puts forward some new expressions in improving the distribution system , attracting attention at home and abroad.
The first mention of "regulating wealth accumulation mechanism"
Chinese-style modernization is a modernization in which all the people are prosperous.
The distribution system is the basic system to promote common prosperity.
The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposes to standardize the order of income distribution, standardize the wealth accumulation mechanism, protect legal income, regulate excessive income, and ban illegal income.
Li Shi, dean of the Institute of Sharing and Development of Zhejiang University, told a reporter from China News Agency that this is the first time that "regulating the wealth accumulation mechanism" has been proposed.
The current speed of wealth accumulation is very fast, but the wealth gap is widening. In the context of promoting common prosperity, it is necessary to standardize the wealth accumulation mechanism, enhance the fairness of wealth distribution, and narrow the wealth distribution gap to prevent the phenomenon of "the rich accumulate tens of thousands, while the poor accumulate tens of thousands." The phenomenon of eating scum”.
Feng Wenmeng, director of the Research Office of the Institute of Public Administration and Human Resources of the Development Research Center of the State Council, told a reporter from China News Agency that after years of exploration and continuous improvement, relatively complete coping strategies have been developed in the field of income distribution, and some practices have been implemented and achieved remarkable results. For example, some traditional monopoly industries will be limited in wages.
"However, how to make the source of wealth more standardized, there is still a lot of work to be done." Feng Wenmeng said for example that the equity allocation of some companies has a relatively arbitrary problem. There are cases where it is distributed more arbitrarily, and there are cases where personal wealth is converted into corporate assets for concealment.
The source accumulation, distribution, and intergenerational inheritance of wealth all require corresponding institutional arrangements.
Jin Li, vice president of Southern University of Science and Technology and acting dean of the Business School, told a reporter from China News Agency that compared with high-income groups, the wealth growth of middle- and low-income groups is slow, and the risks are more volatile.
Therefore, it is necessary to vigorously develop inclusive wealth management for low- and middle-income groups.
At the same time, on the premise of unswervingly adhering to the protection of legal private property, it is also necessary to properly restrain and regulate the excessive wealth growth rate of high-income groups, and promote a more long-term sustainable development of society.
Emphasis on "Promoting Equity of Opportunity"
The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposes to insist on more work and more rewards, encourage hard work to become rich, promote equality of opportunities, increase the income of low-income people, and expand the middle-income group.
Li Shi believes that to promote fair opportunities is to break all unreasonable restrictions and obstacles, so that the labor market can maintain full and fair competition without any status discrimination.
Whether it is labor or capital, there should be opportunities for fair competition. It is necessary to establish such a fair environment and promote the establishment of a unified national market.
Feng Wenmeng said that ensuring fair opportunities is an important channel for improving income distribution, and it also corresponds to common prosperity.
This requires eliminating unreasonable restrictions and employment discrimination that affect equal employment, so that everyone has the opportunity to realize their own development through hard work.
Experts interviewed said that Chinese-style modernization is a core thread running through China's future development. It should be escorted by a more complete system, so that individual rights and interests can be more fully guaranteed, and people's sense of gain, security and happiness should be enhanced.
