Chapter 215: When Thor Goes to Be a Nanny (Three More Votes)

In the United States, or even more in the developed countries of the West. The tax revenue of the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info is growing in a step-shaped way. If you look at it in a more intuitive way, the richer the person who pays more taxes.

People with high incomes, such as NBA players, Hollywood stars. A lot of their income needs to be used to pay various taxes.

Of course, there are also various business operations and Wall Street predators who are being heavily taxed. Through the hands of the government, the wealth of the society is redistributed, so as to achieve the effect of equalizing the wealth and the poor.

It's ideally a great thing. But one point that cannot be ignored here is that the United States is actually a country founded by merchants and big industrialists and big farmers.

It's not hard to see this from Lincoln's Civil War. It is said to be a war of emancipation of black slaves, but in fact it is a war between industrial owners and farmers.

Factory owners need more people to get into the city, into the factory. They need people to go to work in factories and then pay them so that they are both workers and consumers.

But not the farmers, who need to trap more slaves on the land and exploit their value.

From an economic point of view, the essence of the Civil War was a challenge to the traditional agricultural forces of the new industrial age. Emancipating the slaves? That's just incidental, not so high-minded.

From the War of Independence, to the Civil War, to the two world wars. It has always been the major consortia that have influenced the will of the country, in short, the capitalists of all kinds.

And you want to tax the capitalists heavily?

Of course, the law is the law, and even the capitalists and consortia in the cattle must abide by the authority of the U.S. Constitution. Because the rules of the game themselves are given by the largest group of capitalists.

Of course, they wouldn't be foolish enough not to leave a way back for themselves. Who is willing to hand over a lot of real money that they have worked hard to earn every year to the state so simply?

So except for the easiest to immigrate to a tax-free country, like Monaco.

Another way is philanthropy. Because charitable donations are tax deductible. For example, a financial predator and a philanthropic fund of an electronics giant.

made a coat with a charitable fund, transferred his worth of tens of billions of dollars, and then did not have to pay a penny of taxes. Anyway, the Foundation stipulates that it must be managed by someone from this family. Naturally, what they say is what it is.

But in this way, not only will you not have to pay taxes, but you will also be able to maintain the luxury of the world's richest people. And you can also earn yourself a good name.

Therefore, in the United States, there are many big entrepreneurs and big capitalists who are keen on "philanthropy". Of course, there are some truths and some falsehoods.

But in any case, various charities under the umbrella of major corporations are everywhere in the United States.

For example, Osborne's Hospital and Sanatorium for the Disabled. In addition to helping with tax cuts, it can also help with the military.

For example, the Almond Hospital, where Thor works, whether you like to describe it that way or not. But at the end of the day, medical practices in private hospitals are a business. The goods that are bought with money are health and life.

Since it is a business that needs to pay taxes, and businessmen do not want to pay all taxes, they must find ways to avoid taxes reasonably.

For example, the formation of the Southern Cross Welfare Institute. It mainly takes in orphans under the age of 14. This includes children whose parents have died of illness, or whose guardians have died in an accident or who have lost their ability to live independently.

Although the United States is strong, its economy ranks first in the world. But as a large country with a population of more than 300 million, and also bears the highest military spending in the world. In fact, the United States does not have a lot of money to invest in the welfare of its population.

On average, it can only rank in the fifties in the world. The countries with the best welfare will always be those with sparse populations but developed economies in the Nordic countries. For example, countries like Sweden, Switzerland, Luxembourg, etc.

So the U.S. government welcomes the influx of private capital into people's welfare programs. In fact, the country's public health and welfare resources are already stretched. Because the war consumes too much money.

The establishment of the Southern Cross Welfare Home was given the green light by the New York City government. Not only is the land approval very fast, but there are also tax concessions for Almond Hospital.

The mayor at that time had only one request, and that was to ensure that the Southern Cross Welfare Home would accept at least 700 orphans.

Thor's appointment was sudden, and without Christine even knowing it, Thor followed the members of the Personnel Department to the Southern Cross Welfare Home in the southern suburbs of New York.

From the outside, it is a very beautiful welfare home. It looks like the hospital spent a lot of money. The main building is fifteen stories high, with a playground and yard of almost 2,000 square meters. and a three-storey annex.

The main building is where the children rest, and the annex is the dormitory for the staff and where they stay when they are on duty.

All children are generally sorted according to their age. Group of six to eight years old. Group of 8 to 10 years old. And so on.

Now the NJStar Welfare Home has exceeded its original design, accepting more than 700 orphans or children who have temporarily lost their guardians, and it is close to 1,100.

This has stretched the staffing of the hospital. Please, the purpose of opening this orphanage in the first place was to reduce taxes, although from a human and moral point of view. The shareholders of the hospital don't mind helping some of the children.

But orphanages are places where there are only inputs but no outputs, and if the amount of money invested is too much, more than the shareholders can afford, it will be very troublesome.

As a result, the nurses at the orphanage are actually understaffed, and in most cases two nurses have to manage 50 children.

There will be more caregivers for younger children, and for older children, because of their self-discipline, there is often only one caregiver in charge. And most of the time those children are the same age, or about the same age.

But Thor's team is a bit special, he manages 50 children ranging in age from 6 to 14, and he has far more caregivers than others. There were four of them, and five with Thor.

"Why?" asked Thor, somewhat puzzled, as he asked the vice president of the orphanage, who had led him the way and briefed him on the situation.

She was an elderly lady with an old-fashioned ladylike look.

The vice president said unhurriedly: "Because these children are a little special. In contrast to children who generally lose their guardianship, they have guardians. ”

Thor looked at the vice dean with some confusion, he was no longer a novice who didn't know anything about the earth. Why should a child with a guardian come to a welfare home?

The Vice-Dean continued: "Because most of their parents are vicious criminals. These include killing, underground organizations, and the manufacture of chemical and hallucinogens. ”

"It is natural for the police to arrest these people when they solve the case. And the sentences are heavy, ranging from the death penalty to 15 years in prison. The vice president lifted his gold-rimmed glasses.

"Although some children have relatives, it is because their parents are criminals. A lot of people don't want to have anything to do with them at all. They have no place to go, and if they go to wander the streets, they are likely to follow the same path as their parents. The vice president took Thor to the southwest corner of the 10th floor, where he stopped at a place that said 2A.

"So in order to help the police, we agreed to take in this group of children. But I have to say that not all children get along well. Especially these children, who have been exposed to things since they were young, make them different from other children. ”

"It's not the first time that even conflicts have erupted. A child in Zone 2A injured other children. So we can only bring them together and manage them together. The vice dean pointed to a door in front of him.

"Thor, that's where you'll work from now on. Take care of these kids. At least look at your body type and you should be able to do well. With that, the deputy dean squeezed Thor's strong arm, and then turned to leave. It doesn't look like I'm ready to go in.

Thor has actually been in a daze since he received this notice early in the morning, and he is doing a good job in the ambulance. And the partner with Christine is getting better and better.

As a result, he somehow became a small group leader of nurses, managing four nurses and fifty bear children.

And these bear children are all children of criminals, although the vice dean is very vague, but she seems to be saying that these children may have criminal tendencies?

This can be seen from the fact that they are separated into a single area.

As Thor pushed open the blue door and prepared to go to his new work area, a red bucket filled with ice and ice water fell from the sky, and the ice mixed with the near-zero degree ice water poured down on Thor.
