特朗普“史上最大力度”税改被指牺牲中产为富人减税

26日，特朗普政府公布美国有史以来力度最大的减税方案，根据这一方案，美国将大幅削减企业税税率，从35%降至15%。个人税税率将从7档减少至3档，分别是10%、25%和35%。但反对人士表示，大幅削减企业税率将增加财政赤字，这些提案“基本上是以中产阶级利益为代价，为富人大幅减税。”

The Trump administration unveiled what it called the biggest tax cuts "in history" on Wednesday, in a move that will simplify the US tax system, slash taxes for businesses large and small - including his own - eliminate inheritance taxes and set the president on a collision course with Congress over the likely $2tn-plus cost of the proposal.

特朗普政府26日公布了号称“史上”力度最大的减税计划，此举将简化美国的税收制度，降低包括特朗普自家企业在内的大小企业纳税率，取消遗产税。被削减的税收可能超过2万亿美元，或将引发总统与国会间的冲突。

Critics immediately called it "basically a huge tax cut for the rich".

批评人士立即指出，这“基本上是为富人大幅减税”的提案。

The plan would cut the US's individual income tax brackets from seven to three (10%, 25% and 35%) and slash US corporate tax rates from 35% to 15%. "We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to do something really big," said Gary Cohn, chief economic adviser to Donald Trump. "This is about growing the economy, creating jobs."
