遺產稅與薪俸稅的緩急先後

前日,田北俊指民主派抨擊政府取消遺產稅是「變臉」,我必須作出澄清。


民主黨從沒反對政府研究取消遺產稅。田北俊說得很對,現在繳納遺產稅的,多是擁有一二千萬遺產的人,他們早已有方法避稅。遺產稅是雙重徵稅,當中累積的財富早該在薪俸稅或利得稅已繳納,這正是遺產稅不合理的地方。民主黨深明遺產稅對推動香港成為資產管理中心造成的障礙,以及取消遺產稅對金融業帶來的正面影響,因此民主黨支持取消遺產稅。但原則上合理的政策和行動,必然要配合適當的時機推出。田北俊批評之餘,卻忘了甚麼是「緩急先後」。

上星期唐英年說仍有赤字之餘(我不同意,原因在《狼又來了》文中解說過),建議減稅。這方面我們同意,因為在經濟欠佳時,減稅有助刺激經濟。但既然政府只肯減收十五億元,那到底應該先讓月薪三四萬元、既要供養父母又要供書教學,還要供樓的「三供」中產人士「透透氣」,還是讓小富豪們省回遺產稅來得迫切?

當財力有限時,做事便得分先後次序,公共政策亦如是。舉個簡例,沒有人工加,兒子要去外國升學,換車計畫便得推遲。就算身為大老闆的田北俊,相信亦不難明白吧!

香港雖有二千八百億元財政儲備,但資源緊絀時,先讓較有需要的人受惠,這才是「急市民所急」的做法。況且在○三年財赤嚴重時,梁錦松已加了薪俸稅,很多納稅人要多繳兩成至四成稅款,中產階層生活也是捉襟見肘。既然今年政府認為可減稅,要求政府撤回先前的加稅措施,讓一直與政府共度時艱的「三供」納稅人先受惠,非常公平,沒有不妥。自由黨支持的那種「今天我拿你的錢,到你死後才還」的立場,真的是「是其是,非其非」,還是如曾司長所說「有點令人胡混起來」?

民主黨以全盤考慮、按緩急先後的原則建議開支分配,卻被田北俊說成「變臉」,我實在難以苟同。
