Property Tax: Being misread collectively

For the property tax, there are a lot of "collective misreading" in every aspect of the society and the source of the pilot study on property tax, which can be traced back to 2003. On the 16-session plenary of the CPC in October 2003, the property tax first appeared in the resolution of the CPC Central Committee on perfecting the Socialist market economy system. The resolution has proposed that "the implementation of urban construction tax reform, when the conditions are in place to levy a uniform standard property tax, the corresponding cancellation of fees."　　January 25, 2007, the IRS issued the "2007 National tax Work points" will be "research property tax scheme" included in the scope of the annual work.　　May 25, 2009, in the property tax "idling" about 3 years, the State Council forwards the Development and Reform Commission formally released the "on the 2009 to deepen the work of economic restructuring of the views", which refers to "deepen the real estate tax reform, study the introduction of property tax." At the beginning of 2010, the tax department would launch a nationwide real estate simulation assessment from the sources close to the State administration of taxation.　　This is interpreted by public opinion as property tax "idling" will be extended to the whole country, "property tax levy pace will be greatly accelerated."　　Property tax, also known as property taxes or property taxes, mainly for land, housing and other real estate, to require the lessee or owner to pay a certain amount of tax, the tax value should be paid as the real estate market value increased.　　According to some experts of the financial and tax system, the basic motion of levying property tax can be summed up, that is, the current property tax, urban real estate tax, urban land use tax, land value-added tax and related fees will be merged into a unified property tax collected in the property tenure stage.　　According to the mature market experience, some experts believe that the property tax in line with the principle of "taxation and complementation" will change the government's business model--from the development-oriented government to the service-oriented government, thus effectively dissolve the dilemma of "land finance". However, although the concept of property tax has been in the Chinese eye for a long time, there is still a lack of understanding of the property tax at all levels of Chinese society.　　Chovedon, an associate professor of land management at Renmin University of China, sees a lot of "collective misreading" of the property tax in all levels of society. After Jiangsu was approved as the "idling" pilot, many cities in the area were unwilling to participate in the pilot, because many local officials believed that the property tax "will increase the tax burden, rather than to promote local economic development tax reduction, tax exemption measures."　　Local governments are generally concerned that the pilot "idling" will affect the local investment environment and image. Similar phenomena also occur in Anhui, Ningxia and Henan.　　The area's property tax "idling" pilot is to avoid the provincial capital city, bypassing the line.　　The misunderstanding of the property tax by officials is even more conceivable to ordinary citizens. In the interview, Wang, an associate professor at the School of Public administration of Zhejiang University, told reporters an example of his personal experience. On one occasion, Wang a meeting with friends in Beijing when he revealed he was enteringThe study of property tax has brought the unanimous siege of friends: "Why help the Government study to increase our tax burden?"　　Wang said that if the property tax was to be interpreted as a "tax reduction" from the point of view of the tax combination, it was generally considered an "increase in tax". "The successful experience of the developed Countries ' property tax collection, in addition to the relatively perfect database and the maturity of the evaluation method, can not be separated from the general recognition of the public", and in Chovedon's view, "the current publicity and popularization of property tax knowledge to raise public acceptance of property tax may be far more important than Chovedon said that there is no question of the timing of the levy of property tax, but this does not affect the community from a positive understanding of the property tax.　　Without a comprehensive and correct understanding of the property tax, the community may have a devastating impact on the property tax.　　Nu Hongzhi, a researcher at the Development Research Center of the State Council, also believes that the relevant departments are not in favour of "sensitive" research on property tax, "instead, publicity should be made to increase transparency and to make the public more aware of the property tax". Gunjing, deputy director of the Jiangsu Provincial Bureau of Taxation, said that if the next step is to expand the scope of "idling" of the property tax, the key is to give a clearer guide at the legislative and institutional level, so that the pilot city can see the meaning and prospect. Otherwise, "Endless ' idling ', can only be costly and wasteful."
