Chapter 550: My Own Life
And in the past forty years, as the prestige of the old government dropped sharply, the first point of power lost was the so-called "right to speak". The media representing different interest classes have seized a large part of the right to speak.
"Escape from Victory!" - at least the news in various newspapers is described in this way.
"We no longer need a dictatorial government, we need a government that we voted for ourselves!"
After forty years of explosive population, the population size of the new human civilization has increased to 90 million. With the increase in labor force, the industrial strength of the entire civilization has increased by a huge amount.
Of course, the labor force brought by such a high population has long been no longer needed to exploit the people as before, and it has now returned to its regular working state.
But whether it is a realistic or future factor, the 90 million population is only temporary, and the vast majority of the population will leave this "escape operation".
The second lost point of power is of course political power. Different political parties have emerged one after another in this preparation time of more than 40 years. In recent times, they have issued their own political programs, depicting the future in a colorful way.
"Today we have handed over the power to the people, that is, yours. For a long time, the government has forced us to achieve big goals, but has ignored the people's pursuit of their own happiness, so that our personal life time has become less and less..."
"This time the plan is a reasonable demand from the real citizens and the upright public. We will leave here and choose our own life."
"I often see alcoholics paralyzed on the road during my long-term work. They once had their own dreams, but they don't have them now. I have also seen people who have removed their entire lungs because of excessive smoking. They shouldn't have been like this... We will end these dark phenomena in another world."
A party leader delivered a speech in front of the people, and warm applause followed by waves.
When the female captain saw this scene, she was so envious. She seemed to have never received such warm applause from the public.
For the current society, it is still a relatively democratic and open society, so voting in the hands of the people will be very important.
After national discussion, the previous one-party governance system will also become a "multi-party governance system". The original old political party "New Civilization School" will no longer pursue these basic platforms that leave the crowd. They choose to stay here and silently complete the entire planetary engine work.
So the original officials can't control what the future will be like, and the people who left will make their own choices...
This is an unprecedented event. Although the original ruling party exploited the people for many years, it made people feel a little angry, but after so many years, it has always had a little social inertia. Many people are a little upset after hearing about this.
However, more people are excited and curious. The New Civilization School pursues "the progress of civilization", but some other parties pay more attention to people's livelihood, while others pay more attention to cultural construction. In short, it's better to change the taste.
What an interesting and meaningful thing for the people to want a political party themselves!
Democratic policy is both beneficial and harmful. The ruling party is voted for, and everyone has fully utilized their political rights and exerted the charm of so-called "freedom".
"It's really a mess... Where did so many messes come from! Isn't it good to pursue progress?"
Wang Haifeng sighed softly, looked at the large mothership above his head, and the population of one ship after another entered the Brilliant Galaxy.
He is an honest man and thinks it is not very good to be noisy like this, but he can't explain any other reasons.
In short, Wang Haifeng would not choose to leave.
Even inside this large construction site that had accompanied him all his life, an extremely impetuous atmosphere appeared. The workers filled out their applications and discussed loudly, as if they could go to the distant paradise after escaping from this hell on earth...a real paradise!
The old people were talking and laughing, and there were a few young people watching and hesitating. They encountered such a thing just after they started working, and they didn't know what they were thinking.
Wang Haifeng patted a young man on the shoulder.
"Uncle Wang, don't you leave?" the young man asked, "All the older people have left."
Wang Haifeng shook his head: "Forget it, where are you?"
"have no idea……"
Yes, he doesn't know, most young people don't know.
They were too confused, and this happened as soon as they graduated... They were still fine in school, but they were like this after they came out.
"We will not think about the people who stay here, but will be the first to build a shelter for you to defend against neutron star collisions! I hope that in four hundred years, we will be able to reunite! You will see a powerful human civilization." This is the slogan of the Industrial United Party, and we will start to win votes for ourselves.
Industry must be done, and shouting this slogan seems to be able to give a morally elegant explanation for its "deserking behavior".
Yes, we just went to build a shelter in advance!
"We will go to that star field and develop another real battle star! And we will also build an observation device for neutron star collision..."
This is another party, the political slogan of the "Democratic Promotion Association", and they actually want to develop another battle star!
This war star will sooner or later be destroyed by a neutron star collision, and only after the war star is developed at 1 light year can it be truly preserved.
In people's hearts, forced development by hurrying tasks seems to be different from self-development with enthusiasm.
What people hate is long-term overwork rather than developing war stars.
The people who are leaving are actually very sensitive in their psychology and emotions. People all know that this big plan must be completed, and must be completed from the moral level or the entire civilization level.
Most people are unwilling to touch their behavior of "being deserters", so they must have a reasonable interface to comfort themselves.
There are not many parties who have been frantically pleased the people at the beginning, promising to "improve social welfare" and "reduce retirement age" because it will make them "immoral and greedy for enjoyment."
These two "Industrial United Party" and "Democratic Promotion Association" that are most in line with the public opinion have gradually emerged and have fought the final decisive battle. It is hard to say who wins and who loses. The two sides debate with each other and criticize each other's political views.
In short, they have a 300-year voyage to defeat each other.
This escape action not only affected the previous generation, but also the next generation.
Some guys who are in their fifties and sixties and have just worked for more than ten years also clamor for themselves to leave. After applying, these people were approved to leave for the first time!
What is most strange is that among the small number of young people who pursue freedom, there is no more population, which also makes Wang Haifeng feel a little incredible...
Although the generation of young people below are very confused, there is a huge conflict between what they learned in the school and what they have happened in society. But there seems to be a force that is faintly supporting. The propaganda power of the old government occupy all the clubs in the school. Some young people just watched the noisy people coldly, as if they were watching a very strange joke.
At this moment, a voice sounded in my ears, "Wang Haifeng, are you really not leaving?"
It's his sister in his small family: "Just make a report, it's very simple! The government's approval this time is very relaxed. If we continue to stay here and the population is greatly reduced, we will have to work for another 10 hours, but it is not as easy as it is now..."
"Forget it, I've been used to it for so long after working for so long. It's nothing more than working for a few years. I'm about to retire...you guys go, I won't go."
Wang Haifeng grinned, hugged each other with his thick hands and his sister, and before he knew it, tears fell.
Chapter completed!
