碰巧读到这篇短文〈权力和不受约束的制度有“原罪”〉,不知胡星斗何许人物,网上找到他的文章都很锐利,蛮有意思的。这文章里说:“很多民营企业家曾反映,企业有很大一部分钱用在了应付各种摊派、检查甚至敲诈勒索上。”

3 hrs confidence:  peer agreement (net): +1 各种各样的摊派费用 = all kinds/sorts of apportionments/apportioned expenses
Explanation: 摊派 = apportion (expenses, work, etc); 叫众人或各地区、各单位分担(捐款、任务等)(外研社:汉英词典;现代汉语词典)
contributions, rates, levies, capitations ...
I'm not sure of the correct term for this. There are several similar terms I think.
eg contributions, forced donations, subscriptions for capital works, schools etc.
see what others say.

Asker: Thanks, Lai An! Some extorted contributions could be just perfect in an authoritarian system, for people in such a system know nothing better.
