Some new summary interval socioeconomic indices are introduced, namely: the Multi-Factor Country Prosperity Indices and the Multi-Factor Country Flourishing Indices. Empirical Aspect of the Subject. The initial and summary indices in question are calculated for the forty main world countries for which it was succeeded to find all necessary initial indices. Principal Theoretical and Empirical Propositions of the Paper. The analysis of calculated distributions of the main world countries according to the Prosperity Indices and the Flourishing Indices (for 2009–2012) shows that Russia and Brazil have clase values of their Indices. And the both countries are almost in all distributions in two most lower decimal parts of intervals of values of the corresponding indices. Besides, it is show that there exists positive linear-trend dependence of the world countries prosperity on the progressiveness of the scale of taxation of income of individuals. Moreover, by means of calculation of the correlation coefficients it is show that this linear-trend dependence is substantially linear-functional. Conclusions.

Приведем важную цитату из работы1, снабдив ее дополнительными ссылками: «Одним из существенных недостатков отечественной налоговой политики является ее ярко выраженная фискальная направленность. Наряду с фискальной функцией на первый план должна выйти и социальная функция, посредством которой происходит реализация социальных обязательств государства и перераспределение доходов между различными категориями граждан с целью поддержания социального равновесия в обществе [Захаров, Голикова, 2014, 7], [Костылева, 2011, 10], [Погорлецкий, 2013, 15], [Шевяков, 2011, 26], [Шевяков, 2007, 27].

Сегодня в мировой практике наиболее распространенной формой реализации социальной направленности налоговой политики является использование прогрессивного налогообложения, соответствующего принципам социальной справедливости, т.е. «богатые платят больше» и в абсолютном, и в относительном измерении2 [Ябурова, 2014, 27]. Прогрессивное обложение доходов населения присуще практически всем развитым странам мира [Суханова, 2014, 21], [Фролов, 1995, 23], [Piketty, Saez, 2003, 28].
