Promising that the fiscal（财政的） reform was "good news for Mexicans", President Enrique Pena Nieto unveiled（揭露; 揭去…的面罩; 拉开…的帷幔; 使公之于众） a wide-ranging（范围或内容广泛的） proposal（提议） which managed to sidestep（躲避，绕开） a political controversy（争议） about sales tax on food and medicine. Those would remain unchanged, undermining a central part of the left's opposition（反对） to the reform programme. But a hike in the tax on soft drinks was included. In part, the government hope it will help tackle the country's serious obesity（肥胖） problem. Mexico has the second-highest obesity rates in the world after the United States. However, the reform is also intended（打算） to deal with Mexico's weak tax revenues（收益）. The country's coffers（财源，金库） urgently（迫切地） need bolstering（支撑） and the intention was that long-running loopholes（漏洞）, which have allowed large corporations to benefit for decades, would be closed. In particular, there were calls to impose（强加） greater taxes on the country's top earners, including the world's richest man, Carlos Slim. However, the final document appears to have been watered down（冲淡，削弱） in that regard（关于，在某方面）. The proposal must now be approved by Congress and the Senate, as well as a majority of Mexico's states.
