Gini coefficient of the Chinese

 The Gini coefficient is fully applicable to China. 

The higher Gini coefficient in the past two years reflects the challenges in the adjustment of China's income distribution. 

The main performance is the widening regional gap. Now the problem is that some people in society is not appropriate, one is to the region, 

Urban and rural differences distort as class differences; the second is to ignore the size differences of economies and exaggerate the severity of the problem. 

I read a paper on CFPS income Gini coefficient decomposition as if written by some researcher at Renmin University involved in the survey. The CFPS Gini coefficient is 0.55, the urban-rural gap contributes 0.24, and the regional gap contributes 0.20. 

That is to say, the main source of income inequality lies in inequality between urban and rural areas and regional inequality, while the class differences between the inhabitants of cities or villages in the same region are small. 

In 2019, Gansu GDP was about $ 5, 000 per capita, $ 18, 000, almost 3.5 times, U. S. 29, 000, the least developed Bavaria, $ 64, 000, more than twice; Japan is almost the gap. 

Since 2000, the regional gap in China has generally been narrowed, that is, the growth rate of economically developed places is lower than that of economically underdeveloped places. However, in the past two years, we have bucked the trend, the growth rate of economically developed areas is moderate, and some economically less developed areas have grown particularly slow, widening the regional gap. 

These two problems are the key to solving the imbalance in income distribution, rather than imagining the "class struggle" and what to "fight the local tyrants and divide the fields". At the 19th National Congress of the CPC, the Central Committee, aiming at the current situation of China's development, directly defined "the contradiction between the people' s yearning for a better life and the unbalanced and inadequate development" as the principal contradiction at present, and put the imbalance before the insufficiency, 

The attitude is clear that —— is to actively manage these two gaps so that more people can enjoy the benefits of development. 

Q: Does the Gini coefficient reflect more social inequality than that in most countries? 

A: China has a huge volume and a huge population. which must be taken into consideration in transnational comparison, but it is undeniable that in China currently,

the degree of social inequality is still high, which is a common problem in emerging countries. Take Japan, for example, which has almost no gap between urban and rural development, the most developed region is about twice the GDP per capita of the least developed region (3.5 times in China), 

Income between different industries is also relatively average, and its social inequality is certainly much better than our country. But the Gini coefficient in Brazil and Mexico is also lower than in China, which may be related to the volume, with only one or 20 million people. I think that our society's

The degree of inequality must be significantly higher than the developed countries like Japan and Germany, but not significantly higher than Brazil and Mexico

Emerging countries will not be higher than the United States that tolerate the rich and the poor and even actively separate social strata. 

Q: you say the class gap is not big, I am in Guangzhou, Beijing, people three apartments, rent a house every month, income than I tried to earn more, I a house, a monthly five-digit mortgage, this is not a class gap? 

A: This is the accumulation of gaps between urban and rural areas and regions in history. People are local people, and the same accumulation reflects a different value. The same house, worth 10 million yuan in Guangzhou, rent 10, 000 yuan; 500, 000 yuan in the county, rent 1200; in the county countryside is the construction cost price, can not be rented. 

CNMOULDING discusses this question, which is from his own yesterday. Despite our hard work, we have been running a company for over 20 years. But as a professional manufacturer of injection molding molds, I would say that we are not able to buy a good house in the inner ring of Shanghai. I am a relative, do an ordinary job, because I dare to buy a house, but live in a bigger house than I do.
