Not satisfied with the general distribution of 10,000 yuan from the Political Yuan? Xu Yuzhen: The Kuomintang strongly promotes universal distribution of 20,000 and "will never give in"

The Executive Yuan will finalize today the "10,000-yuan universal cash dividend plan for AI dividends". The Ministry of Finance emphasized that if the Legislative Yuan can read the central general budget at the beginning of next year and start pre-registration immediately after the president announces it later that month, the first batch of cash will be distributed at the end of the month, allowing people to receive "red envelopes" before the Lunar New Year. However, the Kuomintang group has recently advocated a proposal for universal distribution of 20,000 yuan this year, and legislator Xu Yuzhen has emphasized that this move does not conflict with the political Yuan's proposal for universal distribution of 10,000 yuan next year, and will continue to promote it and "will never give in."

Xu Yuzhenjin, secretary-general of the Kuomintang caucus and legislator, pointed out that the Kuomintang advocated a general distribution of 20,000 yuan in order to allow all people to share the AI ​​dividends brought by this year's economic growth. This year's universal cash payment of 20,000 yuan does not conflict with next year's financial plan for a universal cash payment of 10,000 yuan.

Xu Yuzhen pointed out that the latest statistics from the Ministry of Finance showed that the national net tax collection from January to August this year reached 374.9 billion yuan, an increase of 619.1 billion yuan compared with the same period last year. Former Executive Yuan Comptroller Weber Tao even estimated that the tax overtax this year could reach 1 trillion yuan, and about 470 billion yuan of it can cover the 20,000 yuan universal cash payment. He called on the government to properly plan financial resources so that the brilliant economic development results can truly return to the people's pockets.

Xu Yuzhen emphasized that Taiwan has benefited from the rapid growth of AI, semiconductor and information and communication industries this year, which has led to a significant increase in tax revenue. However, ordinary families are still facing rising prices, high housing prices, and salary growth that cannot keep up with the cost of living. The government cannot just report good news to the people with bright GDP figures, but turn a blind eye to the actual economic pressure that the people are under. Economic growth cannot only come from an increase in government tax revenue, but also requires the majority of workers, young people and families to truly benefit.

Xu Yuzhen questioned that the Executive Yuan proposed hundreds of billions of yuan in additional budget this year, a large amount of which was used to subsidize the losses of Taipower and China National Petroleum Corporation. Could it be that subsidizing the losses of state-owned enterprises can be generous, but allowing all the people to share tax dividends must be very careful? The government should first review the fiscal burden caused by wrong policies instead of putting tax returns to the people last.

Xu Yuzhen finally emphasized that the Kuomintang’s position on promoting universal distribution of 20,000 yuan will never waver. The government has the responsibility to properly utilize the unexpected fiscal results so that the people can truly share the dividends of economic growth. The economic achievements created by the people's hard work cannot just remain in the government's accounts, but should actually return to the people's pockets!
