Masayoshi Kishimoto saw that Rie Sakai was silent for a long time, and said without hurry: "If God asks me to make a new choice, whether to be rich or poor, I will choose to be rich without hesitation." ”

"You regard money as your life!" Rie Sakai blurted out.

"That's right, I just take money as my life. Don't say it once, even if it's 10,000 times, I will only choose to be rich without hesitation.

Do you really think that the life of the poor is like that in some film and television dramas, although we are poor, we are happy and happy.

People's happiness and happiness are built on the basis of money. If you don't have money, you will have an inferiority complex in your heart, huge economic and life pressure, and irritability.

In order to escape from all kinds of unsatisfactory, stress and negative emotions in reality, the most simple, direct and effective way for poor people is to numb themselves through alcohol, drugs, and drugs, so as to achieve a kind of liberation in reality.

Even at a very young age, children of the poor tend to have problems that do not occur in the upper middle class. They don't think they'll live long, they're very pessimistic, and some think that they can only blame themselves for living to the age of twenty, and if they live past the age of thirty, they'll be satisfied.

This is not the case in poverty-stricken and war-torn countries, but also in developed capitalist countries such as Japan, where the general social security environment is quite good. Kishimoto said eloquently.

"Because Japan is a suicidal country, what's so strange. There are some Japanese people who choose to commit suicide if they are not satisfied with the slightest disappointment.

The reason why we Japanese speak so tactfully, not at all as direct as the Americans, is that we are afraid that if we accidentally provoke and hurt others, something very terrible will happen.

In the company, some office workers chose to end their lives by suicide just because they were criticized by their bosses and couldn't figure it out.

This kind of thing is not a rare thing. It happens every year. Rie Sakai disagreed.

"Since you mentioned the United States, then I will tell you about the poor people in the United States. Whether it is the poor in Japan or the poor in the United States, the essence is the same.

Do you think that among the poor in the United States, there is no such thing as the idea that the children of the poor in Japan will not be able to live long?

In the United States, studies have long shown why children from poor families are not concerned about their studies? There is a genetic theory, that is, they are born with poor genes and are born stupid.

I don't completely deny that there is such a reason. However, I am more inclined to the fact that the environment in which they live is not good. Poor people live in places that are often rife with sin.

Like animals in nature, they may face danger all the time, they cannot fully concentrate, and they need to be aware of what may happen suddenly around them.

Over time, even in an extremely safe environment, you can't devote yourself wholeheartedly. What's more, many people have seen people around them since they were young that they were either shot or imprisoned.

People are poor and short-sighted, and they lack a long-term plan for the future. Even if there were, it would only stay on the lips, and it would not have been put into action at all.

Tomorrow is good, the day after tomorrow is even better, and the poor can't live today. If you tell the poor tomorrow, the day after tomorrow will not mean anything at all. They didn't listen at all.

The most terrible thing about poverty is the despair of the future life, not the hope of it. The lives of the poor are not only boring, but they also live like the walking dead without a soul.

Otherwise, why would they be so enthusiastic about getting rich overnight? It is from the bottom of their hearts that they want to get rid of the current impoverished living environment. Kishimoto said with a heartfelt voice.

Rie Sakai didn't listen and said, "You said that the poor in the United States are all black, Latino. White people in the mainstream of American society are not what you say. ”

"Whites live more pessimistic and hopeless than blacks, Latinos. Relatively speaking, it is the poorest and happiest among the blacks. "Kishimoto isn't talking nonsense to her.

In his previous life, he had read a book called "The Sorrow of a Countryman". The title of the book, The Countryman, does not refer to American farmers engaged in agricultural production.

In fact, only 2 percent of the country's agricultural workers are employed in the United States. The redneck referred to in the title refers to the white working class of America.

After the relocation of the manufacturing industry in the United States from its own country, and after the industrial upgrading and transformation, the manufacturing cities that the United States was once proud of are declining day by day.

Manufacturing factories have been relocated by capitalists to Southeast Asia, South Asia, Chinese mainland and other places with low labor costs.

American workers will definitely lose their jobs. After losing their jobs, they live on the little handouts given by the government, and their hearts are filled with anger and depression, and they distrust the elites.

They have not been able to escape such a cycle for almost generations, and the fate of the children of the workers is still only that of the workers, which makes the American capitalists full of contempt and contempt for the American workers in their hearts. In this way, it has also been confirmed by Cao Dewang himself.

"The Sorrow of the Redneck" has some similarities with Nobel laureate John Steinbeck's novel "The Grapes of Wrath".

The difference is that "The Sorrow of the Countryman" is written about American workers, while "Grapes of Wrath" is written about American farmers.

The former is written in the form of the author's biography about the personal experience of three generations of his family, and the time span is relatively large. By the time of the author's own generation, there was a turnaround, and the so-called American dream was realized.

Everything written in the book is what he has seen and experienced with his own eyes. The author himself admits that he is one of the lucky few, after all, he was able to graduate from Yale University, one of the best universities in the world.

The latter depicts the story of a large number of peasants going bankrupt and fleeing the famine during the economic panic of the 30s of the 20th century in the United States, reflecting the picture of a thrilling social struggle.

It is full of blood, tears, indignation, and struggle of American farmers. The work also won the Pulitzer Prize for Literature in 1940.

"You must be making up a story to fool me again, right?" The main reason why Sakai doesn't believe it is because of the preconceived ideas in her own thinking about some orthodox education, books or movies that reflect the United States.

Blacks are poor, and that's because they're inherently lazy and stupid. White poverty is often the result of excessive forward consumption. They're all going to work hard and so on.

Kishimoto shook his shoulders and said, "If you believe it, you will believe it, and if you don't believe it, you won't believe it." Anyway, you won't be without money to spend in your life. As for our son, he was born rich. ”
