Cancel the transport tax

Today "taxes" paid a lot of our population.Among others there is a transport tax, the abolition of which is planned in the highest circles of power.It decided to offset the loss due to rising fuel prices.Such attempts were in 2010, but did not give a positive result: the tax remained in place, and excise taxes on gasoline have increased.Although the law was twice reduced the basic rate of payment, no changes.Since the sum of the transport tax set subjects of the federation, then left them the right to increase it.This led to the fact that in some regions, the price does not just stay the same, and has increased two to three times, and the abolition of vehicle tax did not produce results.

And now is look at the history and see the statistics.For the first time on this type of payment we talked about in Russia in 1994.Then, the transport tax paid only organization.Funds are received by the state, were on the development of public transport of any kind.It was not until November 1997.Then he corrected the law, and pay have become car owners.When determining the payments accounted horsepower engine.This interpretation is similar to the modern.

In 1999, a new mandatory tax on certain types of transport.It turned out that one of the car engine capacity 2500 ccthe owner had to pay twice, as the owner of the car, and as having a single mode of transport.Naturally, the population showed discontent, and the result was the abolition of vehicle tax, which is obliged to pay for having a car with an engine capacity of the above.

existing nowadays transport tax effect since 2003.Its difference is that it has become a regional instead of federal.Its amount is calculated based on the engine capacity of the vehicle.

Now back to the issue that prevented abolish this type of duty, and is there any hope that the abolition of vehicle tax of 2012 - not just talk.Though, most likely, everything will remain the same - in fact in 2011 the government decided to resume the activities of the institute in the country road funds.The budget of these organizations is made up of gasoline prices and taxes on transport.The funds are for the construction of new roads and reconstruction of old ones.It also plans to build a toll road in Russia.But in the West the road include attracting private investment.Russia also uses its in the old car owners.

It is not yet clear how, what and where to work, and due to the fact that once again talking about the fact that the abolition of vehicle tax - not fiction at all clear what will happen to gasoline prices.So far nothing has happened.But the Mayor of Moscow Sergei Sobyanin under the leadership took the initiative to increase the 2013 tax rates for transport.Liberal Democratic Party has put forward a counter-initiative - to return to a discussion of the abolition of vehicle tax.The President supported this idea, but pointed out that this step should be done gradually, without haste, without shocks for the people, and sudden movements.

In addition, many public and political figures and movements have repeatedly called for the existing power in the country to meet the common people on this issue.Cancel the transport tax to the state will only benefit, since the existing scheme is currently unsubstantiated and only annoys.Here we can recall the large-scale action, carried out by the Federation of Russian Car Owners (FAR) to collect signatures in favor of the abolition of the existing tax.Composed appeal to the President of the Russian Federation signed a 100 thousand people.Experts point out that the failure of previous attempts to cancel the transport tax in the Russian Federation are formed due to biased information to raise prices for gasoline and other fuels.
