特朗普政府就美国税收提出新提案。美国财政部长称这一提案是美国历史上规模最大的减税和税改方案。

But analysts say there weren't enough details in the proposal to know for sure. What is clear is that it would change U.S. tax brackets. Generally, the more money Americans earned, the higher their tax rate, the more they pay in taxes. There are currently seven different income tax brackets, ranging from 10 percent to 39.6 percent. The Trump administration's proposal would reduce the number of brackets to three, ranging from12 percent to 33 percent and decreasing the taxes that most Americans pay.

但是分析人士表示，方案中具体细节不足，尚不能予以确定。但可以明确的是，该方案将改变美国的纳税等级。一般来说，挣钱越多的美国人，他们的税率也就越高，需要缴纳的税额也就越高。目前美国个人所得税分为7个税级，税率从10%到39.6%不等。特朗普政府的提案将纳税等级减少至3个，税率从12%至33%不等，同时减少大部分美国人都要缴纳的税款。

But as far as what businesses pay, from mom and pop shops to law firms, today's top tax rate is 39.6 percent. The White House plan would drastically reduce that to 15 percent. It could also reduce taxes owed by companies that do business overseas.

在企业税方面，从小本经营的商店到律师事务所，目前最高的税率为39.6%。白宫的计划将使企业税率大幅缩减至15%。这一计划可能还会减少开展业务海外的公司的税率。

The government gets most of its revenue from taxes. Reducing them would mean less revenue. The plan doesn't say how the difference would be made up. And Democrats criticize the proposal, calling it a gift to corporations and wealthy Americans. Analysts call the plan a starting point that the Republican-controlled Congress could use as it develops its tax reform plan.

政府的大部分收入来自税收。减少税收意味着减少财政收入。这项计划并没有说明该如何弥补差额。民主党人批评了这项方案，称其是给企业和美国富人的礼物。分析人士认为这项方案可以开发税改计划，是共和党控制下的国会可以利用的一个起点。

The Trump administration has made a new proposal concerning taxes in America. The U.S. treasury secretary calls it the biggest tax cut and largest tax reform in U.S. history.
