Obama specifies payroll, dividend tax plans
歐巴馬公布財稅政策

HONOLULU (Reuters) - Barack Obama's presidential campaign said on Thursday a
potential hike in payroll taxes for wealthy Americans under an Obama
administration would not occur for 10 years while taxes on dividends and
capital gains would be capped at 20 percent.
歐巴馬的競選總部在禮拜四對外聲明如採用歐巴馬的新稅措施，對於美國中上階級的賦稅
在十年裡會維持在２０％左右
The new details, laid out in an opinion piece by the Illinois senator's
advisers and on a conference call with reporters, added specificity to a key
economic policy area that has drawn criticism from Republican presidential
rival John McCain and Wall Street.
細節和相關配套措施已經在眾參議員的會議中提出，不過卻遭到共和黨馬侃和華爾街的批
評
Obama previously had not given a timeline for a plan he says he would
consider to increase payroll taxes for people making $250,000 or more
annually. The increase would be used to shore up the U.S. Social Security
program.
歐巴馬之前對於政策並沒有公布時程。他說他會針對年收入在二十五萬美金以上的家庭做
出增加稅賦的動作。所增加的稅收將會用於社會安全計畫的相關開支
McCain, an Arizona senator who promises to support lower taxes, says Obama
would raise taxes to fund social programs he has promised to support during
his campaign.
與馬侃的減稅措施相比，馬侃批評歐把馬的增稅措施只是要實行他競選時所承諾的社會福
利措施
The Republican's advisers said Obama's new tax details represented one more
in a series of policy shifts by the Democrat, while the Obama campaign said
his plans would represent a net tax cut greater than that proposed by McCain.
共和黨指出這個措施會讓民主黨可以隨意轉移政策的方向，不過民主黨反駁這項提案對於
減稅會有更好的成果
"Sen. Obama believes that one of the principal problems facing the economy
today is the lack of discretionary income for middle-class wage earners,"
Obama economic policy director Jason Furman and senior economic adviser
Austan Goolsbee wrote in the Wall Street Journal.
歐巴馬參議員認為目前經濟的首要問題是中產階級收入的減少
"That's why his plan would not raise any taxes on couples making less than
$250,000 a year, nor on any single person with income under $200,000 -- not
income taxes, capital gains taxes, dividend or payroll taxes."
這也是這項提案為什麼只針對年收入高於二十五萬美金的家庭，或是年收入高於二十萬
美金的個體作徵收，而不是以收入稅法，資本額稅法，分離徵稅法，或是由薪水帳冊而定
Goolsbee and Furman said an increase in payroll taxes for wealthier Americans
would be delayed for at least 10 years.
歐巴馬競選部同時也說在十年內不會增加中上階級家庭的稅賦
They also said the top capital-gains rate for Americans making over $250,000
a year would be 20 percent. Obama had said previously that dividend and
capital-gains taxes could increase to as much as 28 percent.
如採用此稅法，對於年收入二十五萬美金以上的家庭稅賦只會維持在２０％左右，如果用原
來的稅法的話曾會使稅負增加到２８％左右
SHIFT TO THE MIDDLE?
McCain's campaign said Obama's positions on taxes kept shifting over time and
his past record was telling of what he would do as president.
馬侃的競選總部說歐巴馬不斷的改變他對稅賦的看法，從他過去的紀錄可以看出他當總統
的話稅賦法將會是一團糟
"The reality of Barack Obama's record is the following: he has voted to raise
taxes 94 times in his short time as a senator," said Carly Fiorina, the
former chief executive of Hewlett-Packard and a top economic adviser to
McCain.
馬侃競選總部的經濟顧問說＂在歐巴馬當任參議員的期間裡，他對於稅賦的部分提出了
9４次增加稅賦的提案＂
She said she was "mystified" at how the Obama campaign calculated he would
lower taxes more than McCain."Barack Obama can say it, but it doesn't make it
true."
馬侃競選總部同時對於這樣的迷惑策略的新稅賦法提出質疑。＂歐巴馬先生可以提出這樣
的案子，但是要實行還有困難＂
Andrew Busch, a global foreign exchange strategist at BMO Capital in Chicago,
said the new tax policy details reflected Obama's move to the political
center after a rise in poll numbers for McCain helped boost U.S. stock
markets, which he said were jittery about an Obama White House.
芝加哥的全球財經顧問表示歐巴馬的新稅賦使歐巴馬移向政治中立的立場，原因可能是馬
侃的經濟復甦策略使得民調優勢頃向共和黨的關系所致
"The (opinion piece) that we saw today in the Wall Street Journal is part of
a path that Obama's taking which takes him back more towards the middle, more
towards McCain's policies," said Busch.
他同時也表示華爾街日報是歐巴馬重回政治中立的一條路徑，一條與馬侃的政策不相上下
的路線
"We're pleased ... to see that because there is tremendous uncertainty over
Obama's plans for the economy and for the stock market -- and for the markets
overall."
我們很期待看到這樣的結果，因為歐巴馬政策的巨大不確定性將會影響到整個經濟，股市
－以及全球的市場
Obama, who is currently on vacation in Hawaii, returns to the campaign trail
this weekend.
歐巴馬先生去夏威夷度假啦！周末才會回來喔！
