In China, the three-child birth policy has long been decentralized, but the number of newborns has not increased, and if this state is maintained, the situation of domestic aging will only become more and more serious. So what good suggestions do domestic experts have for this problem?
Subsidy 1 million
Liang Jianzhang, a domestic population expert, once proposed that families willing to have children can be subsidized, and put down in the form of cash or income tax reductions, such as 1 million subsidies for each child born. Many people heard this policy expressing joy and concern at the same time, because the birth of a child is rewarded with a million, which is not a small amount for the national treasury.
The number of newborns in 2020 is only 12 million, and the domestic fertility rate has been reduced to 1.3, but according to the 1 million yuan spent on each child born, the state needs to pay at least more than 10 trillion yuan per year to meet this policy. If there is really so much money, then there will certainly be a lot of families willing to have children, but the burden of the relevant domestic departments will only become heavier and heavier, and many people say that this is a fantasy. Then, compared with this, the suggestion made by another expert, Ren Zeping, seems to be more realistic.
Subsidies are provided until the age of 18
Ren Zeping proposed that you can try personal income tax reductions and economic subsidies. First of all, personal income tax is linked to everyone's income, because everyone's income is different, so the benefits in taxation vary from person to person and cannot be compared at the same time.
But financial subsidies can be reflected in many ways, for example, from pregnancy to the birth of the child, until the child turns 18 or graduates from college. For example, the subsidy for the second child in Sichuan is now 500 yuan per month, which is subsidized until the child is 3 years old, that is, there is a subsidy of 18,000 yuan. If it can really be subsidized until the age of 18, it will relieve a lot of pressure on parents in terms of parenting.
Secondly, the childcare service in the infant and young child period directly alleviates the anxiety and pressure of parents in the early stage of raising children, because now the monthly childcare cost of infants and young children in many cities is around 3,000 yuan, if you can subsidize in this regard, it will ease a lot of pressure on the family in terms of funds.
A series of auxiliary measures have also been taken to support women's post-child employment, such as preferential reductions and reductions in maternity taxes for enterprises, etc., to deal more effectively with the problem of cost sharing between enterprises and individuals on the issue of childbirth.
The policy also mentions that investments, in particular, in the education and medical care of children, can reduce the cost of raising children in families. This policy is very much in line with the needs of today's families for raising children. Most importantly, the policy mentions the need to maintain long-term stability in house prices so that more families can afford and buy.
After the announcement of this series of policies, it has been recognized by many young people, and there is no doubt that if these policies can be implemented, even if they are not direct measures to give money, many people will see that after the policy, there is no strong resistance to childbearing.
In fact, for the problem of increasing fertility and increasing the total number of newborns, it is necessary to promote for a long time, and the suggestions of Ren Zeping experts are indeed in line with social needs, depending on the implementation of the domestic situation in the later period, and the emergence of these policies has dealt with most of the pressure of the current childbearing age, that is, the reason for the reluctance to have children.
Reasons for reluctance to have children
The slow effect of the three-child policy is not only that the dividends released are not large enough, but that they stem from the pressure from all aspects of social survival. For example, housing problems, many people even buy a house is a loan, to face millions of loans, their own life can not make ends meet, let alone have children.
And if it is a family that already has a second child, the birth of the third child will undoubtedly face the problem of "whether it should be a bigger house", and in the long run, various pressures are intertwined, and many people have dismissed the idea of having a third child.
The second is the child's education, in fact, three years ago there were professional institutions to calculate, a child's education expenditure from kindergarten to college graduation is no less than the cost of buying a house, many families themselves have to bear a huge mortgage, let alone to raise two or three children.
And simply to raise the child, a series of pregnancy examinations to fertility, child milk powder, early education, etc., is already a lot of money.
Today's childbearing age groups, in addition to the above pressure, there is also the pressure to give parents pension. Most of this generation is an only child, and the parents have reached the age of retirement, and once the body has problems, the cost of going to the hospital is borne by the children.
Not only that, in society, many employers are very picky about women who have children, especially the birth of three children, which affects women's career development, and they are likely to lose a job because of childbirth. These are undoubtedly the pressures that this generation of people of childbearing age have to face, and it is difficult to consider the problem of having children under the situation of self-care.
Therefore, if my new policy can be implemented, the number of newborns in china should rise greatly in the future.
