Masses deserve tax relief

The government should give away part of the fruits of economic development to the masses and meanwhile properly use the collected taxes, says an article in China Youth Daily. Following is an excerpt:

The public has long debated whether to raise the threshold on individual income tax. Government officials mostly oppose the tax cut on individual income, while the masses usually support it.

Officials oppose the rise for it will largely reduce the money collected by the government. As we know, the government needs money to supply public services like education and health care.
