ROMA (ITALPRESS) – “Fiscal return” is the title of the reform package of the fisco of the Green Alliance and Left composed of two proposals of law: a structural remodelling in a progressive sense of the Irpef and the introduction of a capital tax only for the wealth greater than 5 million. The proposal was presented during a press conference by Nicola Fratoianni and Angelo Bonelli.
The goal is to lighten the tax burden on those who work by making greater contribution to the great wealth and recovering the evasion, all without increasing the public debt and without downloading the weight on the new generations.
The reform cancels the IRPEF rates and replaces them with a single very progressive function, as already happens in Germany and Denmark. For 98% of taxpayers (41.5 million people) means a considerable cut in taxes. Anyone who earns less than 90,000 gross euro annually will see the Irpef fall. For the middle class (between 20,000 and 40,000 euros per year) the cut will be on average of 29%, about 1200 euros per year: it means 100 euros more per month in the pockets of teachers, nurses, orders, waiters, workers etc.
Those who earn 20 thousand euros a year will have a cut of 64%. For the weakest bands, including the no tax area and under 20 thousand euros, the cut will be 85%. The cost of the reform is 22 billion euros a year (projects on Mef data). The financial covers are given by: the introduction of a capital tax exclusively on those with a net wealth of more than 5.4 million euros (the 0.1% richer in Italy), which would bring 15 billion euros; the fight against tax evasion, for the remaining 7 billion.
It is a “copernican revolution” of the tax system of our country because it shifts the tax burden from work to income; it closes with the season of the condons and the rucksacks that rise on the shoulders of those who pay taxes. Each euro recovered from a tight fight against tax evasion is returned to workers.
“This is an ambitious package that introduces a revolution in the organization of the fisco with the goal of returning the maltoll because in the decades, and it is not only the fault of this government, the trend of the fisco was powerfully anti progressive. The overall wealth in Italy grows, but it accumulates unequally and we must correct this damage,” says Nicola Fratoianni.
The package “is a real revolution that the country has never wanted to face because we are faced with an unjust tax system – says Angelo Bonelli –. We send a message to Schlein and Conte: the moment of courage and protection of our citizens has come, we must redistribute the wealth that has accumulated. It is a proposal that we are sure will also make to reflect positively those social sectors which are not placed on the left because this proposal will allow to reduce the tax burden for 98% of taxpayers. This is a path we open in a country that has an incredible need for social justice where poverty has increased. The message is clear to the right: do not tell that what we propose wants to attack the middle class, it is exactly the opposite. The goal is to put the vast majority of Italians in the centre to return money. Enough with the season of the sheriffs of Nottingham, we want so many Robin Hood to return the money”, concludes Bonelli.
