【开场白】去年以来,各地纷纷提高最低工资标准;我国第二次“中美战略与经济对话”上,中国政府承诺:金融危机过后,中国的财政政策和货币政策都将转向对消费的拉动;报载,下半年,我国收入分配改革方案或将出台,以期达到拉动消费的目标。中国的确需要拉动内需,尤其是消费需求来实现中国经济增长方式的转变。那么,提高工资,中国民众的储蓄过度、消费不足的现状能够改变吗? 【Opening Remarks】 Since the beginning of last year, all localities have raised the minimum wage.

Indeed, China needs to drive domestic demand, especially consumer demand, to achieve a change in the mode of economic growth in China. So, to raise wages, the Chinese people’s savings, spending enough to change the status quo?
