Yesterday, some of Zhengzhou's scholars and experts also participated in the discussion of the topic, some of them even suggested that Zhengzhou can take the lead in the introduction of the middle-class incentive and protection policy, which undoubtedly gave the Zhengzhou "middle class" with hope and confidence. The stronger the middle class, the stronger the society, is the consensus of many scholars and politicians, the best social structure is "olive-shaped." Professor Guidechine, who studies sociology, said, "the country's expansion of the" initiative, the relevant supporting measures, sometimes invisible, in fact, there is a ' widening ' mentality. "The increase in the middle class means that more low-and middle-income people are entering the ranks of high-income earners, which is a manifestation of social progress and should be encouraged and supported by both government and society."  Said Song Xiangqing, secretary general of the Business Economics Council.  Therefore, regardless of "house slave" or "child slave", in Zhengzhou monthly income of 5000 yuan, is a good thing, and how to improve their happiness index, is the society is a personal event.  Evening News reporter Xingxiaoqing/wen background "China is entering the stage of middle class formation" scholar Cao Renshu said that China is rapidly entering the middle class formation period. "We talk about middle-income groups, in the context of reform and opening-up, and the integration of urban and rural areas, the equalization of public services and so on." According to foreign experience, the larger the middle-income group, the more stable society, which is often said that the ' olive-shaped ' social structure. Guidechine, director of the Soft Science Research Center at Zhengzhou University, said that in 2009 the proportion of people earning less than the urban and rural per capita disposable income was as high as 62%.  Therefore, China's current income distribution structure, similar to a broad base of the pyramid, he figuratively likened to its "inverted nails" shape, and "olive-shaped" there is not a small distance. Guidechine that from the "expansion" of the state, a series of reform measures, all implied the "middle class" this content.  The results show that the main reason for the low proportion of China's middle-income group is that there is a high income distribution inequality in China, as well as a large gap between urban and rural income.  Standard Zhengzhou "middle class": Family monthly income 6000 yuan?  We still have to ask, in Zhengzhou, what is the standard of middle-class? Song Xiangqing, secretary general of Henan Province Business Economics Society, believes that the middle class must be defined in terms of family per capita income and per capita expenditure to be more objective and accurate. Different regions and different standards. "Economically developed regional standards will be higher, less developed areas will be lower." However, in any region, the total household income, per capita income and the proportion of the main expenditure items in the overall expenditure should be considered in three aspects. "Regarding Zhengzhou's middle production standard, Song Xiangqing's personal viewpoint is:" In Zhengzhou, the household average income is not below 6000 yuan, per capita monthly income is not less than 2000 yuan, the food and the daily life consumption expenditure accounts for the household total income proportion not to be above 20%, the family security expenditure not below 20%, Education and fitness tourism expenditure is not less than 20%, no repayment or repayment is not higher than 20%, savings and financial investment is not less than 20%. "For ADB standards, Song Xiangqing disagree, Guidechine also do not recognizeCan。 Guidechine said: "ADB standard is the concept of consumption, but China's consumption level of regional differences and urban-rural differences are very large, it is difficult to define." Only when the middle class expands to a certain stage and forms a stable social structure, is the time to give the standard.  "It is suggested that Zhengzhou may take the lead in introducing middle-class incentive and protection policies Song Xiangqing that the middle classes should have three main features: simplicity in daily life, proficiency in their work, and enrichment of amateur life.  Want to "expand", he boldly suggested that Zhengzhou should take the lead in introducing the incentive and protection policies for the middle class in the whole country, so that the middle class should enjoy more participation, voice and supervision in politics, rule of law, economy and culture. "It takes four to increase ' middle class ' Reengineering, the first is the system reengineering, through the reconstruction social distribution system, creates a more advantageous to form the middle class the new mechanism; second, the system reengineering, through the Reconstruction Unit salary distribution system, creates a more incentive effect new pattern; third, the industry reengineering, through the upgrading of existing industries and the extension of industrial chain, increase product value-added and enterprise profitability, for the middle class Layer of the formation of a solid economic base; Four is the quality reengineering, through strengthening the basic quality and intelligence skills cultivation, enhance the citizens ' individual competitiveness, for them through more challenging work, to obtain higher income, for the early entry into the middle class to lay a new foundation. The key to "construct the olive-shaped" distribution pattern is "Song Xiangqing, enlarging and adjusting". "Lifting the low" means actively expanding employment, the key to the expansion is to encourage creativity, develop small and medium-sized enterprises, improve and create the structure of distribution of wealth, and increase, it is through charitable means, so that high-income earners to assume more social responsibility, including tax collection and management, timely levy property tax, estate tax.
