How big will the gap between the rich and the poor be if China forbids emigration?

In the sixties and seventies, everyone had the same living conditions and income, and there was basically no gap between the rich and the poor. However, after 1978, some people began to get rich, the gap between the rich and the poor gradually widened, and there were more and more rich people. Although there are more and more rich people, the distribution of wealth is not even olive-shaped, but pyramidal. People at the top of the tower can't spend all their wealth in a lifetime, while people at the bottom of the tower are still rushing for three meals a day. The data show that the Gini coefficient of 20 18 has reached 0.474, which has exceeded the "warning line" of the international standard of 0.4. According to the international division of Gini coefficient, Gini coefficient exceeds 0.4 and is lower than 0.5, indicating that the income gap is already very large.

Although there are more and more rich people in China, we have also found a problem, that is, many of these rich people choose to emigrate. The data shows that in 20 18, there were1080,000 rich people in the world, of which 13.9% came from China. Compared with 2008, the number of immigrants from China in 20 18 has reached10.5 million, and the number of immigrants ranks in the world. At the same time, these rich immigrants will also transfer their wealth abroad, transferring trillions of assets from China every year. Then why do these rich people choose to emigrate overseas when they have money?

The purpose of the rich immigrants is obviously to avoid taxes, inherit property and protect property. Few people really want their children to get an education or a better living environment. After all, China's first tier cities's development and convenience are not worse than those of some developed countries. If you have money in your hand, you will certainly get a better sense of happiness than abroad. In fact, from the behavior of these rich people, we can see that they immigrated not to get a better living environment, because many rich people still stay at home to make money even if they immigrated to other countries. For example, some celebrities emigrate to other countries, but they still live in China all the year round, so almost all the rich people emigrate to other countries mainly to avoid taxes.

Some people may think that it is the freedom of others to immigrate to other countries with money, and we have no right to interfere. There is nothing wrong in theory, but these rich immigrants not only transfer domestic assets to other countries, but also continue to make money at home. For example, Zhang Yong, the founder of Haidilao, immigrated to Singapore and transferred many assets to Singapore. Now they are the richest people in Singapore, but they continue to make money at home, but when they make money at home, they spend money abroad. How does the domestic economy develop?

The main source of a country's income is tax. Some welfare policies we can enjoy now are supported by taxes, such as free schooling in primary and secondary schools, medical insurance reimbursement, various infrastructure projects and so on. These rich people enjoy preferential policies at home and get rich first, but they transfer all their money abroad to avoid various taxes. It is really wrong, but it also promotes the economic development of other countries.

For a large number of rich people who emigrate overseas, the CBRC explicitly prohibits expanding the non-standard fund pool by stages and in an open way, which means that it will become more and more difficult for the rich to transfer their wealth overseas. Some netizens also suggested that these immigrants should be taxed at 10%-20% of their net assets. What do you think of those rich people who emigrate and have a lot of assets? Do you agree to levy immigration tax on them?
