Among the many scholars, Liu Yuanchun of Shanghai University of Finance and Economics likes to talk about traps the most.
President Liu once talked about the seven traps of China's economy in one breath, in fact, those seven traps are basically not the traps of China's economy, for example, the Thucydides trap, just talkThe Thucydides Trap is a prophecy of war and destruction, and China and the United States cannot reach this step;The reason is very simple, 300 nuclear warheads and 4,000 warheads are the same result for the two peoples, and even if they regard each other as Omicron, they can only choose to coexist.
China's latest statement is that China-US relations can only be cooperated, not chosen.
However, I believe that there is one trap that is unique to China, and that is the moral trap of China's private sector.
Actually, the moral trap is not an exact expression, and I believe everyone will understand why I am positioned as a moral trap.
What are the moral pitfalls of the private sector?
A few days ago, Toutiaojun asked a question: How to distinguish between capitalists and entrepreneurs?
The question is already a problem, and it is a typical Chinese problem, because there is no such problem in the whole world, and when we ask a question in a specific Chinese context, it is an ideological question, the question has not been answered, and the criticism is already in it. That is to say, when making private investment in China, there will be an ideological investigation, just abide by the tax law and the "Labor Law", not be called an entrepreneur, but also pursue something, and lead the people of the whole country to common prosperity, otherwise you can only be a "capitalist", which is a black hat.
That's the trap.
Because, in China's culture for nearly a hundred years, the word "capitalist" has been nailed to the pillar of shame of mankind;In the past storms, the capitalists were the objects of judicial service, so we fell into a kind of self-entanglement.
Reality, Policy and Classical Theory
On the one hand, the policy is sober.
The downward pressure on China's economy can be seen through a set of resonant data, which is superimposed on the complexity of the external environment and the impact of the epidemic, which is the capital outflow that we have to face in our era.
China's economic growth rate has begun to decline in the past decade, from double-digit growth to guarantee, guarantee, guarantee, and annual protection, and the result has fallen to ;Another set of data is the growth rate of private investment, which is also in the past decade, with a double-digit decline, the year has entered negative growth, China's economy has ended its high growth, and there is a direct correlation with the "capitalization" and sinking of private capital. At the end of the year, Lao Hu was very happy, and a survey showed that some of the high-net-worth families with a net worth of trillions of yuan said that they were optimistic about the future of China's economyIn fact, this kind of survey is meaningless, it depends on what the problem is samplingIt is meaningful that Lao Hu, as a veteran of the ** front hidden among the ordinary people, his perspective is far more valuable than Sima Nan. Lao Hu's concern is also the concern of policy;Without the strong growth of the non-public economy, China's economy will not be able to get out of a weak recovery cycle.
The promulgation of the "Opinions" can be said to be a summary of the economic policy for the coming year, once again emphasizing that the private economy is "its own people," the "new force" of the next centenary plan, and the "foundation" for future innovation breakthroughs.
However, the question that the private sector needs to answer directly is: Are the capitalists their own people in China?
The social status of one's own people
How do you think about the social status of your own people?
If it is your own person, then there is no need to discuss the difference between a capitalist and an entrepreneur, and there is no need to do ideological division. If you are successful, you are an entrepreneur, if you are not successful, if you are bankrupt, you still talk about entrepreneurs, no matter how noble you are, you are not a family, and you are not even worthy of a capitalist, that is called an old lai.
If it is not his own people, then the private sector is a trap, a trap that he jumps into by himself with his own money to invest and gamble his life.
According to the classic definition, whether you are Ren Zhengfei or Cao Dewang, as long as you hire laborers, they are all capitalists and exploiting classes, and the money earned, whether through mobile phones or new energy vehicle glass, is the surplus value of squeezing laborers, and every yuan is "dripping with blood and filth from head to toe and every pore";As a result, the private economy has become a distorted circle, and the world's economy is above private capital, and the world has not been reduced to a future because of this, while in China, if you choose to be a private business owner, your social status will plummet, and it is the lowest level of social politics.
Perhaps, yesterday Wang Er Mazi was still a factory worker, a member of the glorious leadership class, he made a mistake for a while, opened a fritter shop downstairs, got up early and greedy for darkness, and worked too hard than in the factory, but, unfortunately, Wang Er Mazi's income increased, his social status depreciated, and he became a small proprietor, belonging to the category of the petty bourgeoisie;If you go bankrupt soon, you will become a liar, and if you don't slip away, take a shit luck and make a fortune, then your social status will plummet and you will become a capitalist.
It should be said that this is an era of tolerance, where capitalists are allowed to exist and affectionately call them "their own people", but, at the institutional level, everything must be based on the Communist Manifesto and cannot be forgotten.
That's the paradox.
Our economy cannot do without the private sector, which has already constituted the basic plate of China's economy, and has 100 million individual industrial and commercial households, 10,000 enterprises, and the families of this huge market entityCould it be that those critics who talk about the Spring and Autumn Period, make money from ignorant traffic, and have no common point have become the people?The private sector has supported nearly tax revenues and employment, and they are China's economy, and they are not the people's economy, so what is the people's economy?
However, this huge group of taxpayers, who support the main body of a country's economy and income, is at the bottom of the social status and does not have equal qualifications.
The problem is that, according to the classical theory, thousands of business owners are capitalists, this is not labeling, they are genuine capitalists, and Ren Zhengfei is regarded as a hero of the national industry, but he is still a capitalist.
If it is so distorted, it is not the problem of the hundreds of millions of private economic entitiesIt can only be said that our culture has designed a trap for itself, a trap that we can't get along with.
In a cycle of economic downturn, experts call for equal treatment and give private enterprises the same market position, however, without the same social status, how to give the same market position?
