« We could apply from January 1 »

The interim president of the PSD, Sorin Grindeanu, continues to plead for the progressive tax, reminding what the IMF is asking.

« There are some recommendations from the international financial institutions, even from the Commission (European Commission – no), please look at what the IMF said two or three days ago, the IMF recommendation to have a progressive tax in Romania. It is a recommendation that the World Bank and the IMF and the European Commission. We have it, Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary and Estonia.

He added that if this measure was implemented, VAT would no longer need.

« We could apply from January 1, to say, from an income over 12,000 lei, the impact on an application of 20% tax on which exceeds 12,000, it brings us an income of about 12 billion. It requires a buffer of several months to be able to apply this progressive tax. Until January 1, we can also discuss that tax, which is also a tax, Great, ”said Sorin Grindeanu.

Regarding these measures, he added that « there are things that sooner or later we will apply them »

The PSD leader stressed that he does not agree with income cuts for those with low and medium income.

« We will not agree, as a party, to cut the income for the people who have low and medium income. PSD cannot do this and will not! I have seen all kinds of projections, let me not comment. When we reach an agreement we will communicate it. I emphasize, Medium, let’s cut various things that do not bring a big plus to the budget, ”said Grindeanu.

He added that the PSD does not support taxation on bank transactions.

« I do not know who came with the proposal, » said the Social Democrat.

The economy teacher Cristian Păun said the previous days that « that study invoked of IMFby which we are recommended again and again, obsessively right, that progressive quota seems to be sewn with white thread. ”

Also, there were harsh conclusions of the economist Bogdan Glăvan after the public appearance of the IMF report. The Ministry of Finance emotionally blackmail the population, waving a FMI report, which shows the despair of Finance, says the economist. The ministry says practically – « we have nothing to do with the brothers, please believe us, forget, and the IMF advises us to grow the victories! », He thinks Glăvan.
