从历史逻辑看,编制、统计和发布消费价格指数的首要目的,并不在于反映整体经济通货膨胀的程度,而在于反映消费价格变化对居民特别是普通工资收入阶层的实际收入水平的影响。鉴于通货膨胀压力之下生活遭受影响相对最大的是低收入群体,有必要编制反映不同收入群体的分类消费价格指数,以使社会保障和救助工作更加科学、合理和规范。 Historically, the primary purpose of compiling, compiling and publishing consumer price indices is not to reflect the extent of the overall economic inflation but rather to reflect the impact of changes in consumer prices on the actual income levels of residents, especially ordinary wage earners. In view of the fact that under the pressure of inflation, the relatively greatest impact on life is low-income groups, it is necessary to draw up a classification of consumer price indices reflecting different income groups to make social security and relief more scientific, rational and standardized.
