After finalizing the matter of returning to the main plane to study the "Underground Dark River" and "Artificial Heavenly River", Wang Fan was in a happy mood and felt that he had done another very meaningful thing, which could benefit many people and his status before the adventure, which was a great good deed for the grassroots people and the silk class. (+ Find this book quickly) Wang Fan was excited at the thought that he could add 800 million mu of oases out of thin air and generate 200 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity (equivalent to 4 Three Gorges dams). However, I know that this kind of project is "painful" for the country, and it needs to be carefully analyzed, and a series of changes caused by it, such as geography, biology, and climate, of course, as for the impact on India, I can take care of it, and I will disperse if I can't take care of it.
"Hum haha~~~" Wang Fan, who was in a good mood, unconsciously hummed a song in the aircraft.
"Looks like you're beautiful!" Yadea, who took beating Wang Fan as the joy of life, spoke at the right time.
"Hehe, that's, that's!" Comrade Xiao Wang hadn't noticed it yet, so he nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice, and replied: "If the effect of this project is really realized as expected, then half of the Yanhuang Continent will be able to live a good life!" ”
"Ahem~ Wang Fan, I'm curious, what kind of good rìzi you planned, can you describe it?" Yadi asked.
"Well, what I hope is that everyone has comfortable public rental housing provided by the state, the kind with a very low rent, for example, a person earns 3,000 yuan a month, but the rent that needs to be borne is only 30 yuan, plus property fees, water fees, electricity bills (induction cooker cooking), a total of only 50 or 60 yuan, and then from kindergarten to junior high school, about 12 years, are free education, high school, higher vocational, or university appropriate fees. Well, there should be one of the three mountains, I want to think about it, by the way, it is to see a doctor, we strive to see a doctor and spend less money, for example, the price should be 15~200,000 yuan for a large operation, and I only need to pay 10,000~20,000 yuan. Of course, things like cars and electrical appliances are all necessary, so there is no need to talk about them separately. The more he talked, the more excited Wang Fan became, and he preached endlessly.
"Oh~~~ That's it, then Wang Fan, let me ask you, how many places in the world can you estimate this level?" Yadi hey and began to tease.
"Ranked? I guess we're going to have to be in the top 3 or 5 as well? Wang Fan didn't know much about the welfare system in foreign countries, so he guessed.
"Top 3 or top 5? What are you kidding, it's a midstream at best! Yadi unceremoniously stomped on his face.
"What?! How is it possible, I have overturned the three mountains and set up according to the standards of housing, education is basically free, and medical treatment costs less. Wang Fan replied in disbelief.
"Hard-working baby, after your adventure, you just carried things back and forth, basically didn't actually contact the outside world, go back and look for opportunities to go abroad to investigate. I'll give you a few examples first, do you know that France is not? Yadi leh preached.
"Yes!" Someone's head nodded and agreed.
"French farmers receive a subsidy of 400 euros (1 euro is about 8.4 yuan) for each 1 hectare of farmland, and 300 euros for each livestock raised. At the same time, non-working or low-income families receive a minimum subsistence allowance of 405.62 euros to 1 euro per month, depending on the size of the family, and 162.25 euros per month for each additional child if there are more than two children. At the same time, France is free of charge from primary school to university, and if the family income is below a certain standard, the child can receive a subsidy of 249.07 euros at the beginning of each semester. From junior high school to university, students receive grants ranging from €54.9 to €3456 per semester. French citizens pay a health insurance premium of only a few hundred euros per year, which is roughly a week's minimum wage, and the unemployed are exempt from paying this fee. If only one member of the family is working, the spouse and children can be covered by their own insurance and the contributions will remain the same. The patient pays only 1 euro for each visit to the doctor, and all the rest is transferred to the social security institution in his or her own insurance account. ”
"It's impossible, only 1 euro registration fee is required for each visit, and education is free, oh my God~~ This makes me feel embarrassed!! By the way, what about their house? Wang Fan first sighed, and then asked without giving up.
"You can balance this point a little bit, because they have a large population in the country, so many people's housing conditions are relatively small and poor." Yadi explained.
"Haha, I'll just say it!" Wang Fan said happily.
"Don't just look at the shortcomings of other people, although I say that the housing area in France is small, I also mean that a big city like Paris is absolutely rich in the countryside."
"Okay, okay, I get it!" Wang Fan replied with a pout.
"Seeing that you are not convinced, I will give you a few more examples! Several Nordic countries such as the United Kingdom, Germany and Sweden have heard it! Yadi asked.
"I'm not from the ravine, Yadi, you're insulting my IQ!!" Wang Fan said angrily.
"Okay, I won't tease you, I'll tell you directly, Britain and Germany are very similar, a person who eats relief or a refugee, can live in a welfare house with an area of about 80 square meters, of course, you need to live with another person, but the room has washing machines, refrigerators, gas stoves, TVs and other household appliances, what daily necessities you want, talk to the welfare officer, and you will get them for free, bed sheets, blankets are changed and washed for free on a regular basis. zhèngfǔ paid him a weekly living allowance, and when he fell ill, he enjoyed the same standard of free medical care as a British national, and if he did not know English, zhèngfǔ would pay for him to hire a translator when he saw a doctor. ”
"Poof~~~~~" Wang Fan had nothing to say.
"As for Sweden, you're going to love it!"
"Why?"
"Because Swedish national law stipulates that when a wife gives birth to a child, her husband also takes 9 months of full-pay 'maternity leave'!"
“oh,mygod!! I can't stand it anymore! The more Wang Fan listened, the more irritated he became, and he was about to collapse.
"Do you still want to hear it?" Yadi observed Comrade Xiao Wang's state and asked.
"Listen!" Wang Fan gritted his back molars and said scoldingly: "NND, Lao Tzu has no way in the main plane for the time being, but in the target plane, it can still be achieved by fighting together. ”
"Well, Norway implements free education for all levels, including nurseries and kindergartens, and infants under the age of 2 can receive a cash subsidy of up to 3,000 Norwegian kroner (1 Norwegian kroner is about 1.1 yuan) per month if they do not go to a nursery. As for Denmark, what makes it more remarkable is that the cow nǎi fee for the child from birth to the age of 18 is also paid by zhèngfǔ. An unemployed person is entitled to unemployment benefits equal to 90 per cent of his or her pre-unemployment salary for four years after becoming unemployed. If you can't find a job within 4 years, you will receive unemployment benefits of about 14,000 yen per month. Yadi said two more and stopped, observing Wang Fan's reaction.
"Yadi~~"
"Well~~~"
"What about the little devils, what about the Woko Kingdom of the Lord Plane?" Wang Fan suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked.
"They, they offer completely free preventive diagnosis, check-ups and health care for citizens over the age of 40. The implementation of free and compulsory education from kindergarten to junior high school, the rest is the low-rent housing provided by some counties, nothing too special. Yadi replied.
"That's it~~" After Wang Fan heard this, he was silent for three minutes, and asked, "Is my country really so different from them?" ”
"Well, the gap should be said to be very big, but it's not as bad as you think!" To Wang Fan's surprise, Yadi replied that the gap was not very big.
"Why do you say that, obviously many of them can't be compared!"
"If you think about it, if the welfare measures in these countries were really perfect, then there should be no beggars there, right?"
"Yes, it should be."
"But if you go back and search the Internet, there are a considerable number of poor people in the countries I just mentioned, who have no fixed place to live and beg for a living."
"Why? Why don't they enjoy such a good policy? Wang Fan wondered that there were still countries in the world that were mean to their own people.
"That's because they're not qualified!"
"Not qualified? why? ”
"Because these welfare measures have some prerequisites, such as having to be a citizen of their own country, like Germany and the United States, if you are not a citizen of your own country, then seeing a doctor will be expensive to death, about the cost of opening a bottle of medicine, and there are many in China." The poor and busy, who sign a contract with the human resources bank, work in a large enterprise, are not paid for equal work, and need to pay their own national insurance, but they earn less, so they cannot afford to pay, and are blocked from various welfare systems, so if it is not a foreign country, it must be a paradise, and there are rich and poor people everywhere. ”
"You mean they're also 'represented'?"
"Almost, or rather, all kinds of migrant workers from abroad, but there is one thing I need to warn you of!"
"What?"
"What do you think they are based on such a good welfare system?"
"I know this, they are developed countries~~"
"Is it just a developed country, then your country can announce to the whole world that from today we are also a developed country, and then live this kind of rì, is it feasible?"
"Of course this will not work, it is useless to shout empty slogans."
So what is the basis of their welfare? Think about it! Yadi encouraged.
"My own idea is that their currency is more valuable, for example, the same monthly income of 2,000 yuan, but the purchasing power of 2,000 euros and 2,000 Yanhuang coins (that is, the exchange rate exists) is completely different, because now logistics connects the whole world, so the same Apple mobile phone, in Yanhuang domestic and European prices are not much different, but the conversion of chéngrén's currency is very cheap, not to mention some items, sold abroad than in China."
"It's a little close, you're talking about the exchange rate difference, so that people in Europe who earn 2,000 euros can live the standard of living of people who earn 16,800 yuan a month, and because of the existence of a large number of public rental housing and low-rent housing there, they have eliminated the huge pressure of housing loans to suppress spending power, so the standard of living is rising higher than that of your home country. However, these still do not explain the core question, that is, why does this exchange rate exist? Why does everyone recognize it? ”
"This should be caused by the difference in the level of science and technology, in the words of Marx, the difference in the level of productivity!"
"That's right, it seems that this rìzi, you have not been in vain in the target plane, and you have finally made political progress! In fact, their biggest advantage is the 'seigniorage'! ”
"Seigniorage?"
"Yes, that is, to exchange the paper money printed by yourself for the actual goods produced in your country." Yadi explained.
"Why do you describe it like 'playing white strips'~~"
"In fact, the essence is to play a white strip, but this white strip is recognized all over the world, I ask you, what is the actual printing cost of a 100 euro banknote, at most a penny! And what about the value of the goods you sell to them, at least a few tens of euros, then the difference between these tens of euros and one penny is the 'seigniorage', that is, the benefit they receive. ”
"So you're saying that the 'seigniorage' they get feeds a large number of their own nationals."
"Pretty much the same, the 'seigniorage' is only one aspect, on the other hand, although the multinational companies of their country invest in your Yanhuang Continent to build factories, they can transfer a lot of wealth through fictitious contracts for importing raw materials at high prices. In fact, what is wealth? To put it bluntly, it is a labor commitment. I have $100 for you, so you're willing to offer a 'service pledge' worth $100. So they have transferred a lot of wealth, and they have taken a lot of your country's 'service promises,' which are hard to say, promises that make you willing to serve them. ”
"Some understand, which is why a large number of them don't work, but live well, and most of us are working, but they are living very poorly."
"Because you were too backward in the 80s, and many technologies such as production lines did not exist at all, it took you thirty years to catch up, and you basically achieved self-sufficiency in civilian technology, although there is still a gap with the most cutting-edge technology in Europe and the Republic of the Stars and Stripes, but these gaps are reflected in civilian use, and they are not obvious. What is more at a loss in civil use is the gap in brands, standards, and patents, and it has lost a lot of money, but despite this, it has also made those developed countries feel threatened! ”
"Why? We feed them with our belts up and down, provide them with cheap goods, and they say that we threaten them? ”
"Because there are not many goods that can be exchanged in Europe, there is a degree to exchange paper bills for nothing, and beyond that degree, no one will use the extra paper money, that is, the currency will depreciate. So they can't just get their own invoices, so what if there is a gap between the 'service commitment' they need every year and what they can earn? ”
"If I understand correctly, you're talking about the European debt problem?"
"Yes, the truth of the European debt crisis is that in order to maintain those welfare measures, they do not earn enough money, so they borrow from other countries in the world, so as to maintain a decent life for their citizens, but borrowing money to be arrogant, after all, there is a degree, and now they have been borrowing for more than ten years, and some countries are not even able to pay off the interest, such as Spain, Greece, etc., so the crisis will break out. For example, France and the United Kingdom have their own core competitors, so although they are unable to make ends meet, they can still last for a few more years. Because of Germany's unique development ideas and huge advantages in machinery manufacturing, it has always been out of excess (exports are greater than imports), and there will be no problems in a short period of time! ”
"I see, Yadi!!"
"What's wrong?"
"You've got those benefits stuffed."
"And then?"
"We have 70 years of technology accumulation leading the world, which is enough to support the best welfare system for Yanhuang, so that foreigners in the target plane can work for us."
"Absolutely, but I'll give you one more caveat."
"What?"
"You have to find a way to build a creative source similar to the 'Silicon Valley' of later generations, or your country will still face difficulties when the decades of technology are exhausted."
"I understand, Yadea~"
"Huh?"
"Thank you!!"
You're welcome~~~"
