Chapter 134 Xue Beng (representative for the leader Zhao Shen
[……” The ancestors have been used to being poor for generations. One day I don’t want to live a good life! I didn’t expect to become a millionaire all of a sudden. It’s time to reward myself.” The name of the demolition household is Abu Rahamlu, with snow-white teeth and a cheerful smile on his face.]
[Buy high-end digital products, eat delicacies, and wear marten coats. The consumption concept of this interstellar demolition household is not an isolated case.]
[... Before I got the demolition payment, Abu Rahamlu replaced the cigarette he had smoked with an international brand. As soon as he got the money, he bought a magnetic levitation sedan of about 300,000 yuan for himself and his wife who had just learned to drive.]
[These two cars were unimaginable wealth they used to be, but now, most of the time they are just staying in the garage at home. But if they don’t buy them, they can’t help it when they see others buying them...]
These people were born in poor countries, without knowledge, culture, and insufficient ability to engage in the space industry. After they suddenly received a huge amount of funds, they became developed all of a sudden, and their ideology suffered a huge impact.
Why are you rich?
Buy a car, buy a house, gambling, play with women, and do things that I usually long for but dare not do. Interestingly, this group of demolition households actually indirectly promoted the development of the earth's GDP, and a large amount of funds poured into the housing market again, pushing up housing prices again.
Traditional lifestyles and values have been impacted or even subverted, and a large number of problems have arisen in the reconstruction process of new lifestyles and values.
Facts have proved that if virtue does not match the position, there will be disaster.
It is too difficult to fall into the black hole of desire and try to break free.
There is an old saying in Xia State that if you spend money, you will still spend all your money without a source of funds.
After squandering the demolition money, time passed quickly. Twenty years later, most people lived in poverty again. Moreover, most people who did not know how to manage finances had moved to a distant alien planet, a place with a worse environment and no natural production.
They had to work again.
It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. How many people can bear it from heaven to hell? The crime rate of interstellar immigration has increased significantly, and the stability of society has begun to be worse than before.
For a full hundred years, the poor were basically driven out of the earth!
Compared with the leadership selection cycle that lasts several years, the process of a century is quite slow. In other words, even if the senior management realizes this, they often don’t care about it - it’s not their own country, so what if they care about so much?
Those who committed crimes were expelled from space cities. But this behavior has triggered protests from leftists. Without the shelter of space cities, how many years can they live on a distant alien planet? For the sake of votes, or in other words, in order to gain public support, many officials have to consider accepting these low-quality refugees.
Seeing this, Zhang Yuan's mood gradually became heavier.
This is another hidden, very huge historical node.
...
Next is the second worried report. The circular solar system project is roughly completed, and the relocation of interstellar residents has led to the rapid expansion of the Gini index!
This made Zhang Yuan's heart jump.
Gini coefficient refers to a common indicator used internationally to measure the income gap between residents in a country or region.
The larger the Gini coefficient, the larger the gap between the rich and the poor. The larger the gap between the rich and the poor, the greater the possibility of turmoil.
After a large population migration, the Earth-Moon Economic Circle is undoubtedly the most developed region in the solar system, and is a center of finance, talent, and high-tech.
The remote Titan and Europa are just an energy base, and various facilities will definitely be weaker.
Moreover, another point that was ignored in the past is slowly amplifying and forming a series of complex social benefits.
That is... the average life expectancy of the rich group has significantly exceeded that of the poor!
Rich people can live for three or four hundred years due to medical equipment and living environment; while poor people can only live for one or two hundred years! What kind of gap is this?
Death is known as the most just god in nature. Anyone will treat everyone equally in front of Death. Whether it is poor, rich, damn it or die.
But this sentence has become a past tense.
"Hello, fellow Earth Age, fellow Golden Sun."
"Death, in the face of increasingly advanced biotechnology, has begun to favor the rich. It is difficult for us to predict what will happen in the future... The high-lived class can completely crush the low-lived people in terms of knowledge, wisdom, and connections."
"This has greatly increased the speed of class solidification..." a foundation president wrote in a worrying report.
This is easy to understand. As the saying goes, "We are rich but not poor but not poor." Only in this way will class mobility be brought about. As a result, the poor have been dead for three generations, and the rich old man has not died yet. In this way, how can class mobility be brought about?!
“…The resentment at the bottom of society is slowly amplifying.”
"The dissatisfaction of the lower-level people with the government is also gradually increasing."
“What’s worse is that the rough implementation of the ring solar system project has caused our economic growth to slow down.”
"Human development cannot be infinite, investment activities are no longer vigorous, and we do not need such high industrial capacity... The entrepreneurial environment is not as relaxed as before."
“Making money has become harder.”
The increase in the lifespan of rich people was not a big deal, and in the past, there was no such big contradiction.
The main reason is the economy.
As long as the economy can grow, it means that class circulation is still active.
When ordinary people also have the possibility of becoming a rich class, they have the momentum to leap up. They will only envy, fight, and work hard for it.
Therefore, all contradictions are covered up in a hurry under the high economic growth.
However, with the completion of the construction of the solar system project, the growth rate of the entire civilized economy gradually slowed down.
Human material needs are not infinite. The civilization circle has grown rapidly for so many years, and it is impossible to grow significantly. The planet to be developed has been basically completed. Even Pluto in the distance, Sedna is too far away and has no great development value.
The easiest era to make money is always the era of rapid economic growth, rather than when GDP seems to be very large, but the growth rate has stabilized.
The economy does not grow and there is no room for free, so it enters the stage of stock game.
The rich have more resources and the poor have fewer resources. It is not easy to leap up. Most people will always stay in the poor class.
So, the ancient class contradictions reappeared at this moment!
There is even a third point, a large number of poor people are injected into the alien planet, once again magnifying the contradiction!
Because of this cheap migrant population, jobs are no longer enough. Even the high salary of working in the interstellar world is slowly being reduced.
If you don’t even have a high salary and can’t afford to buy a house on Earth, who would still be willing to endure exploitation in this ghost place for the rest of your life?
...
Through these descriptions, Zhang Yuan seemed to see a bright and shiny tall building that rose from the ground and collapsed in an instant after reaching a certain height!
All beautiful situations collapse like an avalanche. Every insignificant snowflake is guilty, and there is no way to truly characterize the true sin of each snowflake.
After reading this report, Zhang Yuan tried hard to calm down his mood.
When it was late at night, I felt very depressed.
