Democratic Party, the controversy over the taxation is hot.

As it is now, the tax is paid by the top 3.7% of house prices, but when a proposal to reduce this to 2% came out, internal protests erupted saying that the tax cut for the rich was not.

A 3% intervention has also emerged.

The proposal of the Democratic Party Real Estate Special Committee is to change the target of comprehensive real estate tax from the current 'public price exceeding 900 million won' to the 'top 2%'.



At the current rate, the top 3.7%, 526,000 households, would have to pay the final tax at the end of this year, which will drop sharply to 2% or 280,000 households.



It is said that it reflects the will of Song Young-gil to appease the real estate public's sentiments exposed by the re-election disastrous defeat and to broaden the party's horizons in the middle of the presidential election.




However, within the party there was a collective protest.



On the 10th, at the suggestion of lawmaker Shin Dong-geun, pro-moon, 63, or 36% of the party's members, expressed their opposition to the tax relief.



If policy coherence is broken, the goodwill of easing the tax burden will disappear and the housing market may be pushed into a more serious situation.

There are also criticisms of 'tax cuts for the rich', but the support group for Wan Wan-an, including CEO Song, refutes, saying, "Can we call the reduction of 65.9 billion won in tax cuts by more than 4 trillion this year as 'tax cuts for the rich'?"

This Out "In the course of discussion with the party leadership, a '3% arbitration plan' was proposed between the current 3.7% and the special yuan 2%, but no conclusion has been reached yet," a Democratic Party official said.



The Democratic Party leadership is planning to hold a general meeting of the House of Representatives within this week to close this issue, but since there has been a collective objection, labor is expected to come to the final draft.
