摘要

In his first appearance before parliament last month Mariano Rajoy, Spain's new prime minister, said he had no intention of raising taxes. Only eleven days later, on December 30th, he brought in thumping tax rises on income, savings and property. It was the sort of ploy Mr Raj oy's Socialist predecessor, Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero (who preferred indirect taxes), never dared to make, not least because Mr Rajoy's right-wing People's Party (pp) would have accused him of bleeding middleclass wage-earners dry. But in the back-tofront world of budget deficits, principle is often the first casualty. In 2010 Mr Zapatero himself executed a famous u-turn, freezing pensions, raising the retirement age, cutting civil-service pay and imposing austerity on regional governments. Mr Raj oy's switch will turn Spain into one of Europe's highest-tax countries. The top income-tax rate will jump by seven points to 52%, although few Spaniards declare an income above the €300,000 ($390,000) threshold. Then there are regional top-ups. Catalonia, for example, will now tax high earners at 56%. In Europe only Sweden has a higher rate. Even those at the bottom of the income scale will see tax rises. Taxes on savings will also go up. And property taxes, paid to town halls, will rise for richer owners.
