How do farmers choose the four types of fees in the rural payment tide, the third of which must be paid?
The beginning of the "New Rural Cooperative Medical System" premium**.
In the countryside, December is the peak time for payment. The most important part of this is the "New Rural Cooperative Medical System". Usual.
Farmers who paid the NCMS in September and October will have to wait until around December this year. That is to say, in the next December, the villagers in the village will participate in the payment of the NCMS, after all, December 31 is the deadline for payment, and whether they can receive the medical insurance in 2024 depends on whether they have paid during this time. As a system, the new agricultural cooperation has played a great role in the health of the vast number of peasants and greatly eased the economic pressure on the peasants. However, NCMS is not mandatory, and many people are reluctant to pay because of rising prices. Housing prices are expected to rise again next year, and I think more people will choose to give up.
Add-on extensions. Paying the "New Rural Cooperative Medical System" is equivalent to an extra year of medical insurance. But in reality, many people can't afford such a large amount of expenses in a year. In particular, after the abolition of agricultural taxes and fees, peasants' incomes have not increased markedly, and the peasants' subsistence pressure is still very great. This has led many rural residents to find themselves in a dilemma when participating in the new type of rural cooperative medical care. Under the current social and economic situation, due to the continuous improvement of residents' consumption level, many farmers are forced to withdraw from the new type of rural cooperative medical care and adopt the "self-pay" method. This has a big impact on their family's finances, health, etc.
Sanitation costs - the cost of beautifying the village.
Rural health expenditures are small but indispensable. In the process of implementing "rural revitalization" in China, the quality of life has become an important criterion for measuring the quality of life of urban and rural residents. To this end, each village is equipped with garbage cans, trucks and cleaners to improve the environment in the village. After years of struggle, many villages have regained their vitality and presented a beautiful rural landscape. However, such a beautiful scenery still depends on everyone to maintain it together. The most intuitive way to maintain sanitation is to pay a sanitation fee, and each family has to pay a sum of money to the villagers to improve the health situation in the village.
Add-on extensions. In order to ensure the smooth progress of rural health work, sanitation fees must be paid. In China, improving the quality of life has become an important aspect of China's rural development. In rural areas, the problem of rural life has been well solved due to the installation of sewage disposal equipment and sanitation workers. However, building a beautiful countryside depends on the hard work of every villager. In order to ensure the continuous improvement of the health situation in the villages, it is necessary to pay for sanitation. Such a cost, although only a small part, can ensure the quality of the rural environment and the quality of people's survival.
Necessary expenses for heating in winter.
December is just around the corner, especially as temperatures get higher and higher, and heating in winter has become a problem for farmers. However, many people wonder why they have to pay for heating in the countrysideCan't the peasants burn coal, kang, or firewood?There's a no-go zone. Driven by China's new energy and clean energy development strategy, the division and implementation of coal ban areas has become a major issue. In the no-coal zone, farmers can no longer use ordinary loose coal, straw and dry firewood for heating, they have to switch to electricity or gas for heating, whether it is electricity or gas, they have to charge. Due to the large area occupied by rural houses and poor airtightness, the consumption of natural gas is much larger than that of urban houses, and even with financial subsidies in some areas, the heating cost of a winter can be thousands to tens of thousands. Because of this year's heating and the lack of corresponding subsidies in some places, many farmers are facing continuous heating costs.
Add-on extensions. As the temperature is getting lower and lower, the heating problem is becoming more and more important to farmers. Especially in non-coal mining areas, farmers have to find alternative heating methods. Since it is strictly forbidden to burn coal for heating, the heating problem in rural areas either depends on "coal to electricity" or "coal to gas". However, there is a fee for both. In our country, due to the large living area and poorly sealed buildings, the consumption of natural gas is much greater than in cities and towns. Although there is a local subsidy, the heating cost of rural households is still considerable every winter. This has put more economic pressure on farmers in poor areas.
Pension Insurance - Pension **.
In rural areas, December is also the last pension of the year. However, many farmers do not pay this money, because their pension is too small, a pension of a few hundred yuan a month, for most farmers has no power, why spend thousands of yuan to pay?As a result, even though expenses are rising year by year, many people are still reluctant to contribute to pension insurance.
Add-on extensions. At present, China's urban pension insurance contributions have gradually become a heavy burden for farmers. Because the economic situation in the villages is relatively backward, the pension received is relatively small. Although the state continues to raise the level of pensions, for most farmers, a pension of 1,200 yuan a month is not very attractive. Many rural households have given up their pension insurance for various reasons, so that they cannot enjoy the corresponding social security benefits. Against this backdrop, the elderly in rural areas face a greater financial burden and less trust in the social security system.
Generally speaking, December is the peak of farmers' payment, that is, the four expenses of the New Rural Cooperative Medical System, sanitation fees, heating expenses and pension insurance. Although people think that the cost of living in the countryside is cheaper, the reality is that this is not the case. The increasing consumption expenditure of farmers has become an important problem that needs to be solved urgently in the process of rural revitalization in China.
