Chapter 530: The Great Dao Has a Front
In an environment where value is distorted, the amount of money a person earns does not necessarily mean how much social value he creates.
If this money is obtained through monopoly power, resources, and violence, it is not creation, it is plunder.
Therefore, do not measure the social value you create by the amount of money you earn, but look at whether your work is beneficial to the development of the whole society and how much social benefit it produces.
For example, the existence of shared bicycles greatly facilitates the travel of young people, reduces their travel costs, saves travel time, and reduces the congestion of urban traffic by using motor vehicles, which is beneficial to the traffic order of the whole city.
From the city manager's point of view, this is in line with their goals, not to mention how much the use of bicycles reduces the pressure on the environment.
However, due to some personal quality problems in this society, some people who use shared bicycles do have indiscriminate parking behavior, which has some bad effects on the city's traffic and appearance.
But it's not the bike-sharing's fault, it's the fault of the people who use the bikes.
However, in the name of law enforcement, some city administrators simply and rudely confiscate bicycles that are not parked in the designated places according to them.
Bicycle owners who want to get their bikes back and put them where people need them are still paying a hefty "fine".
Some of the so-called "fines" even reach half of the cost of a single car, which is prohibitive.
At the same time, due to the emergence of shared bicycles, the income of some traditional industries has been seriously affected, and some people who do not want to change have maliciously destroyed bicycles or discarded them in some inaccessible places.
What's more, there are people who use public power to use large machinery to damage a large number of shared bicycles, which makes people sigh.
Countless people are wondering: why don't they have time to put these bikes where they can do their job?
Does it cost no money to hire someone when collecting the car?
Doesn't it cost a truck to tow a bicycle to a "designated" place and stack it?
What authority do they have to charge such a high fine?
Why do they dare to damage other people's property so brazenly?
To put it bluntly, it's all driven by power and interests.
The more they do this kind of work, the greater the harm to the healthy development of society.
Therefore, their work will not produce any social value at all, but will become a cancer of social development and is destined to be spurned by people.
The fate of shared bicycles is only a microcosm of countless irrational phenomena in a society governed by man, and countless new industries are constantly being hindered and faltered by traditional forces.
This is also the common sorrow of all people with dreams in the environment of human rule.
……
As long as time does not stop, countless ancestors have worked hard to push the wheel of history to turn with their wisdom and painstaking efforts.
However, due to the limitations of their personal abilities and vision, they simply cannot guarantee that the wheels of history will always be in the right direction.
Therefore, in the long history, there have been many regressions in the level of social development, which is the result of the wheel of history not grasping the correct direction.
A person's vision is always limited, and even if he is the "king" of mankind, he cannot see the future beyond him hundreds of years later.
"Five hundred years in advance, five hundred years later", that is just the dream that people give to some characters in legends and stories with this ability.
However, this is just a beautiful dream.
In the 70s, everyone thought that the future was "upstairs and downstairs, electric light and telephone", holding the crank in their hands, and saying into the microphone: Hey! Please help me pick up so-and-so.
If the ends of the world are next to each other, what a comfortable way of life!
Countless people did not expect that the advent of information technology would make such a drastic change in the telephone.
It only took a few decades for the hand-cranked telephone to become an "antique" and a memory that only existed in movie screens during the Republic of China.
With the advent of the information network, people are finally able to gather the strength of all mankind and even the whole world to see the future farther and more clearly.
Although there is still no guarantee that the wheel of history will always be in the right direction, at least the information network has been able to allow people to see the wrong direction earlier, so as to correct some things in the wrong direction earlier.
There is a natural antagonism between the information society and the society ruled by man, because none of the so-called "elites" in the society ruled by man is not a master of using the asymmetry of information to play balance and play tricks.
If all the information that concerns the public is transparent, how do you ask them to do what they do, how do they do what they do, how do they do what they do, how do they want money that comes from unknown sources?
In an information society where information is fully shared and stakeholder interference is avoided, there is simply no such thing.
In fact, the purpose of the social order established by the information society is still to achieve a "balance".
However, the "balance" it requires is completely different from the balance under the rule of man.
The balance that the information society focuses on is the balance between all people and between people and the world, and it is a balance on a larger scale, rather than a narrow balance between a few people and a few forces.
To use a word that people often complain about in a certain country, it is "harmony".
What the information society pursues is harmony between people, between people and society, and between people and the world.
The harmonious world is originally a desirable world and a social ecology worth looking forward to, but why did such a word with good wishes become a "river crab"?
It is nothing more than jokingly saying that in the name of "harmony", he did the things that ran rampant in the "eight" way, and the people had resentment in their hearts.
It is precisely because there are completely different ways of understanding and dealing with information sharing between the information society and the society governed by man, that there will be a "literal prison", a "crime for words", and a "ban......
This is the confrontation between "humanity" and "royal road", and this is the last madness of "human rule".
The advent of the information society in this world, even since the advent of computers, the carrier of digital information, has only been completed for more than 40 years.
If it is less than twenty years from the moment when the "global village" is realized through network sharing, it is not even twenty years.
These twenty years are too short compared to the thousands of years when man ruled the world and ruled the world, so short that it has not even had time to change the thinking of a generation.
Only when people who realize that information sharing will bring another possibility to the world become the mainstream of society will it be the spring of the information world.
Wei Minsheng believes that day is not far away......
When information sharing truly shows its unstoppable edge to the world, all the ghosts and ghosts will have nowhere to hide.
Although the avenue is invisible, the invisible edge of the avenue is enough to break all the shackles in the world that affect people's pursuit of freedom, equality, and a happy and beautiful life.
