Everyone chatted at the dinner table for a while, and anyway, everyone's feeling was that the government was in charge of everything, but there were many problems everywhere.

"In this fucking world, why is it so difficult for us ordinary people to do something?"

"Hey, Ah Jian, I don't know what Tuvalu you live in now, how do you deal with these problems?"

Li Jian thought for a while and said, "These problems don't seem to exist over there!" ”

"Impossible, don't you raise chickens, ducks and the like?"

"In Tuvalu, we also have farms.

It's just that next to the farm, there is a large sewage treatment plant, and the so-called breeding waste flows directly to the sewage treatment plant for treatment, and I don't see any pollution? ”

"A farm needs to be equipped with a large-scale sewage treatment plant, which is even more ruthless than ours here!"

"It's not what you think, this big sewage treatment plant was not built by a farm, it was built by the Tuvalu government.

The sewage treatment plant will not only treat all kinds of sewage waste from the farm, but also all domestic and wastewater waste from the entire special zone.

Now the farm has to be cleaned with clean water once or twice a day, and the waste it produces has no chance of polluting the environment.

If you don't get closer, you won't feel any smell at all. ”

"Aren't those island countries very short of fresh water, and you are willing to clean the farms with clean water twice a day?"

"That was all in the past, and now we in Tuvalu can produce a lot of fresh water.

Moreover, the fresh water used to flush the farms is the treated grey water from the sewage treatment plant, which can be recycled. ”

"But I know that the cost of desalination is very high.

Since water is expensive, how much does the farm have to pay for sewage treatment every year? ”

"The sewage treatment plant is completely organized and operated by the government, as long as you send all this sewage waste to the sewage treatment plant through a special pipeline according to their requirements, you will not be charged.

If you litter your sewage, you will be punished severely. ”

"All sewage treatment is organized and operated by the government, and such a large amount of money will not be collected from everyone's taxes at that time, and the wool will only come out of the sheep."

"But during the time I've been there, I haven't heard of any separate environmental taxes?"

"If you don't collect taxes, then the government can't afford to die?"

"In the District of Tuvalu, there are currently only three types of taxes, one is the inheritance tax, which is only charged after the death of a person whose personal assets exceed a certain standard.

Judging from the current situation, this is 50 percent of the excess inheritance tax, and the SAR has not yet received a penny.

The second is customs duties, which are subject to customs duties of 20 percent of the value of all goods when they enter Tuvalu.

However, in reality, the various materials provided by the SAR government are even cheaper than those that enter the SAR through personal channels.

For example, vegetables and grain, such materials from other countries simply cannot enter the Special Zone.

Because even if they don't collect customs duties, their costs are higher than the sales price of the special zone, and there is nothing to make at all.

Therefore, I think that this tariff is only set up by the special zone to prevent people from maliciously manipulating the market, and it does not collect much tax.

The third is the poll tax, which is the same standard for all full members registered in the Tuvalu Special District, and there is no question of who has more and who has less. ”

"You Tuvalu still have to collect a poll tax, huh?

If he had no money on him and couldn't pay the poll tax, would he still be arrested and locked up? ”

"No, as long as you have hands and feet, and go out every day to find work, you can easily earn enough to pay this poll tax.

Tuvalu's policy is to help the poor, and even if you do have a physical problem, as long as you are not completely paralyzed in bed, you can still find a suitable job.

Because, Tuvalu has all kinds of work, even if you are in a wheelchair, there is a place to use your abilities. ”

"There should be tax deductions for people with disabilities, right?"

"Nope.

This is because all goods sold within the Tuvalu Special Quarter will no longer be subject to turnover tax on goods.

Therefore, even if these disabled people want to start a small business, the special zone has not collected taxes from them, so how can the tax be reduced?

Even their poll tax, which must be paid, is also necessary because it is also used for expenses such as running sewage treatment plants, public transport, and the construction and management of special zones. ”

"Everyone treats everyone equally, which seems fair on the surface, but for people with disabilities, isn't there a lack of humanity?"

"These disabled people also have to pay the same poll tax, which is really about fairness.

Their humanity is not reflected in the collection of taxes, but through other means. ”

"Something else? Is it that during the New Year's holidays, the leader takes a group of people to bring some rice, noodles, oil, etc. to condole.

Every time those leaders go down to do something to help the poor and condole, there are several people who take pictures and take pictures, whether this is poverty alleviation, condolences or a show.

If you really want to have that heart, you can directly allocate the expenses of your condolences to those who need help, and the effect may be better.

It's a shame to waste it somewhere else. ”

"Hehe, in our Tuvalu Special District, there is no leader, let alone the situation you said."

"No leadership? If there is no leader, who will do such a complicated thing as social management? ”

"We in Tuvalu, no one is a leader, but everyone can be a leader."

"What do you mean?"

"What we call a leader is the person who is primarily responsible for a thing.

What you want to do, as long as you determine the price of doing it, you can do what you say, and the people who undertake your job will see you as a leader.

But that's all, as soon as this matter is over, everyone's identity is equal.

So, if you don't post work tasks through their online platform, you are an ordinary person and can't control others.

But if you want to do something about it, come up with a charter and fund it, you're the leader in charge of it.

In other words, whoever wants to take the lead and do something will naturally become a leader.

If something is small, it is a small leader, and if it is big, it is a big leader. ”

"Can this be the case as a leader?

However, you said that there are already tens of thousands of people in your special region, and there must be one of the biggest officials to manage it, right? ”

"It seems that there is such a person, but I have never seen it."

"Then these officials are a little inconsiderate of the people's livelihood, don't they go deep into the masses to understand the people's suffering?"
