天则经济研究所所长茅于轼说,出口退税是用低于成本的价格争取多出口的一种政策。 我们在国外经常可以买到比在国内价格还低的商品,这常常使我感到惊奇。有一种解释,说是因为国内企业恶性竞争,相互杀价造成的。可是现在不是企业之间互相杀价,而是政府领头杀价,向外国人提供低于成本的商品。这种政策是必要的吗? Mao Yushi, director of the Institute of Economic Research at Tianze, said that export tax rebates are a policy of striving for more exports at a lower than cost price. It is often surprising to me that we can often buy goods that are cheaper than in the country at home. There is an explanation that is due to the vicious competition of domestic enterprises, caused by bargain-hunting. However, instead of bargaining among enterprises, the government is now cutting bargain prices and providing foreigners with products below cost. Is this policy necessary?
