富裕層増税、年収３０億円から　「１億円の壁」是正で―政府・与党

　政府・与党は１３日、年間所得額が１億円を超えると税負担率が下がってゆく「１億円の壁」是正に向け、金融資産や給与などを合わせた所得が３０億円となるような富裕層への課税を強化する方向で最終調整に入った。自民党税制調査会の宮沢洋一会長は同日、党本部で記者団に対し「年収平均３０億円くらいの方に少し負担を増やさせていただく」と述べた。
　一方、起業に成功した結果として大きな金融資産所得を得ている富裕層の投資意欲をそがないよう、起業家が保有する株式譲渡益を元手にスタートアップ（新興企業）に再投資した場合、税負担の軽減策を併せて講じる。起業家が譲渡益で再投資した場合、最大２０億円まで非課税とする。（2022/12/13-12:01）

Japan's government and ruling parties are considering raising taxes for the superwealthy whose annual income totals 3 billion yen or more including gains from financial assets, informed sources said Tuesday.
   The move is aimed at correcting the situation known as the 100-million-yen wall, in which the income tax burden ratio starts to decline when annual income tops 100 million yen, the sources said.
   "We'd like to increase the tax burden on people whose annual income averages some 3 billion yen," Yoichi Miyazawa, chairman of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party's Research Commission on the Tax System, told reporters at the LDP's headquarters in Tokyo.
   Meanwhile, the government and the ruling camp plan to offer the superwealthy a tax break for reinvestment of capital gains in startup companies so as not to reduce willingness to invest among successful entrepreneurs earning huge income from financial assets.
   Specifically, up to 2 billion yen of capital gains would be exempted from taxation if entrepreneurs reinvest them in startups, the sources said, adding that the measure is also aimed at facilitating a shift of funds to startups.
