Chapter 346: The Shattered American Dream

The United States, in fact, has never been a good place for immigrants, especially for Chinese people, although there are a lot of cents that have been promoted in China, the United States is good, that is good, but in fact, people who live here know.

If you're a rich man, then this is heaven, no matter what city you are, no matter where you are, it's heaven.

But if you don't have money, then it's hell, a hell that pushes you into the abyss.

Not to mention, everything in the United States is subject to taxes, and the average household savings of more than 300 million people in the United States are only about 1,000 US dollars, while in China, the average household savings of urban residents are almost 100,000.

Sure, you might say this is, but consider how much the house you live in right now is!

These immovable properties are also counted in the assets, so it is not too much to say that each family has 100,000.

And most Americans rent houses because the tax money for buying a house is too much.

In the United States, everything is taxable, and some people say that the medical care in the United States is good, medical insurance is good, and social security is good.

But the premise is that you have to pay that level of tax, such as the minimum medical insurance implemented in the country, sorry there is no here.

How much tax do you pay, how much medical security do you enjoy, if there is no tax, you can't buy cold medicine here, because cold medicine is also prescription medicine, go to the hospital to see a doctor, a cold is not black you are a thousand dollars small, even if the local doctor is soft-hearted.

The main thing is, if you want to take cold medicine out of the country, sorry. This is also not allowed.

I went to the hospital and saw it. It is nothing more than taking vitamins every day at home. It uses the white blood cells in the human body to kill viruses.

But that's why Americans look strong, at least they don't lack these things.

The highest personal income tax in China is 20 percent, the lowest is not collected, and no tax is paid for income below 800, and if it exceeds 800, if it is a state-owned enterprise. That is, a symbolic receipt of a little, a few pieces, or even a few dozens.

Those who earn more than 10,000 yuan, except for the network writers who suffer 13, other people with normal units do not receive much.

Other bonuses, year-end bonuses, etc., these are not taxable, and they do not exist here in the United States.

The national tax here in the United States must be paid. If the total annual income is more than 100,000 US dollars, it does not matter your salary. Or your bonus, as long as it is the money you earn, it is 35% of your money, plus state taxes.

Keep in mind that the 35 percent, or even more than 40 percent, the 50 percent tax is what you must pay, which does not include any benefits, the housing residence tax, you need to pay it alone, and you need to pay taxes every year for eight years after the car is bought, and this must also be paid separately, and the money for medical insurance and social security will naturally have to be paid separately.

For example, if a person earns 100,000 US dollars a year and lives in Greater New York, about 60% or more of it has to be handed over to the US government, unless he wants to go to prison and evade taxes in the United States, which is the most serious crime, even worse than murder.

There is no such thing as tax exemption in the United States, and the most vicious unit in the United States is not the FBI, nor the CIA, but the IRS, the full name of the Internal Revenue Service, which is affiliated with the Treasury Department.

It is said that there is a dentist from an island country who immigrated to the United States and opened a clinic, and only reported 400,000 US dollars in taxes every year, but the average annual income of American dentists is 1 million US dollars (the dentist of all evils), which attracted the attention of the IRS, so they launched an investigation.

sent someone to pretend to be a patient, went to his clinic to investigate, followed his patient, just like an agent, investigated for a month, and found that he could earn 150,000 US dollars a month, which is a big difference, after investigating enough evidence, the IRS came up to arrest people, and finally sentenced him to three years in prison without bail, and at the same time paid 5 million US dollars in taxes, do you think this is the end? The big head is behind, and he still needs to pay it all at once, and he will be fined 24 million US dollars.

If you don't pay it, you will be in prison for more than 10,000 years, and you will not be able to pay off the 29 million if you sit in prison until you die.

And if you buy something, there is a tax in the money you buy something, and there is also a tax in the money he sells something.

Two-way taxation, which is very common in the United States, otherwise why do you think duty-free shops are so popular?

It is precisely because of this ultra-high tax that many people in the United States have some helplessness, because they can't afford to live.

In such an environment, against the background of not banning guns, there are many people who can't afford to live and go down the wrong path.

Of course, most of these people can't be seen by tourists, and those who really see them are almost dead.

In such an environment, it is natural that many cities in the United States are called the capital of sin.

The media with good things ranked Cleveland, the top 10 crime capitals of the United States, 10th is Cleveland, with 84 murders in 2012 and a poverty rate of 34.3%, and Baltimore, which is in ninth place, with 219 murders in 12 years and a poverty rate of 25.2%.

Eighth New Haven, seventh Birmingham, sixth Stockton, California, fifth Memphis, Tennessee, the city where the Grizzlies are located, 133 murders in 12 years, St. Louis in fourth place, Oakland, California in third, which is the city where the Warriors are located, and the second latest half-city darkness, Detroit, 386 murders in 12 years, with a total population of only 700,000.

No. 1 Flint, a place with a total population of 100,000, had 63 murders in 12 years and a poverty rate of 40.6 percent.

After reading this, if there are still some slings who insist that the United States is a good place, then there is nothing to say.

However, before these sinful capitals, the United States was also not peaceful, but the core area of the not peaceful was not here.

In the decades after the founding of the country, the four major evil cities of the United States were all eastern cities.

The southernmost point, the South American drug land that Jiang Hai has visited, Miami.

The westernmost one. Wicked City. Chicago. and Metropolitan New York, the back of the Godfather movie, is this morning.

And apart from these three cities, the oldest evil capital is actually Boston.

Boston was under the rule of the Irish gang from the fifties to the seventies of the twentieth century, and the entire South End of Boston. There is no good place.

Of course, with the vigorous rectification of the US government in recent years, the gangs here have long disappeared.

But just like a place that people can't see, there will always be gray areas, and there are many people here who are engaged in those professions that are not human, and among these people, there are some people who have enmity with Jiang Hai, such as this one......

"Billy Valron, you thought you were hiding. Can't we find you? "At this time, in an abandoned warehouse on the South Side of Boston, several men in black suits. Blocked a group of people inside the warehouse.

Of course, it is more accurate to find them than to block, because at this time, there are more than thirty people in this warehouse, and there are only four of these black-clothed people, and more than thirty to four, it is more credible to say that they are blocked.

"Hi, my Huaxia friend, I don't understand, what are you talking about, hide? Who am I? When did I dodge! Hearing the words of the man in black who was the leader, a white man sitting in the middle of the crowd said with a knowing face.

"It's best not to hide, you took our money, but you didn't help us, this matter put us under a lot of pressure, after all, there are people above us." Hearing this person's words, the man in black didn't care, and then pushed his sunglasses and said calmly, but the meaning of the words was obvious, and the intention of the threat was strong.

"Hey, my mysterious Huaxia friend, I don't mean to do nothing, but you know, that guy is not as easy to mess with as he imagined, so this price can't be the previous price." Squinting his eyes, the white man said with a smile on his face.

"Billy Valen, you don't have to play such a trick with us, you opened the price of a million dollars at the beginning, and now you have taken 500,000 from us, you are recruiting troops and expanding everywhere, and now you can't do anything with us, do you really have no way to take you?" Hearing his words, the man in black gently knocked the leather shoes on his feet. He spoke slowly.

Hearing his words, the people on Billy Valen's side instantly felt a strong killing intent, and the first person pulled out the gun, and then more people pulled out their guns, staring at the four people in front of them with a cold face.

"Hey, man, pay attention to what you say, I didn't say no, I did, but it didn't work, the other party is related to the police, we want to solve him, we need more manpower, more weapons, your original money, is not enough." Pressing the gun of a person beside him, Billy Valen smiled softly and said with a serious face.

"Then you say, how much do you want!" Looking at this person's appearance, the man in black here also said indifferently.

"The original price of one million has doubled again, two million." Pulling out two fingers, Billy Wallen said with a smile.

"I'll give you five million, this is 500,000 cash cashier's checks, counting the previous 500,000, this is the deposit, when do you kill him, and when will the remaining four million be put into your bank account." Hearing Billy Valen's words, the man smiled disdainfully, then took a check from his pocket, threw it lightly on the ground, and then left without looking back.

As for Billy Valen's younger brothers at this time, they have long been stunned by the figure of five million.

You know, that's a lot of money, and they really didn't think that the man's life was worth so much money.

And after they left, Billy Valen's little brother ran over and picked up the check.

"Boss, it's true, are we really going to do it?" Looking at Billy Valen in front of him, his little brother said softly.

"Hey, the money is in place, and that hand is naturally going to move!" Looking at the 500,000 cashier's check in his hand, Billy Valen's eyes narrowed, and at this time, outside, the men in black also got into a car and drove towards the center of the city.

"Big brother, why is the young master so anxious this time, didn't you say that things are temporarily stranded last time?" After getting into the car together, a man in black sitting in the co-pilot took off his glasses and looked back at the man in the driver's seat with some puzzlement.

"Because the young master's situation in the country at this time is not very good, the one who has been protecting the An family has fallen, I heard that his son was killed in Miami, and all the evidence of the crime was given to someone in the country by his son's bodyguard, through the mentality of substitution, and the most important thing is that this Jiang Hai is not only related to Qi Li, but also the Western restaurant established by the Qi family, the beef used in the main signature dish, is imported from Jiang Hai, if Jiang Hai has an accident now, it can not only break Qi Li's heart, but also break the roots of the Qi family, Don't let their western restaurant become a burden on them. Squinting, the man chuckled and spoke, but he didn't pay attention, and after hearing his words, there was a little brother in the back row, but there were some small movements.

At this time, Jiang Hai naturally didn't know this, and now he was driving his battle shield and taking Feng Yunchen and Ai Xiaoxi towards his forest. (To be continued.) )

PS: Unconsciously, it's been more than a week, Xiaofei tried to see if the effect got better, I won't be on guard from today, if it falls too hard in a few days, then Xiaofei will say again...... Hey, it's not easy to write a book!
