Wang Mang is a failed traverser

Wang Mang, the terminator of the Western Han Dynasty, left many mysteries in history, but if Wang Mang's various actions are regarded as the work of a time-traveler who does not have much culture, then everything is easy to understand.

The evidence is as follows:

First of all, Wang Mang was jealous and hated the Xiongnu and Goguryeo.

Don't talk about the hatred of the Xiongnu, the Xiongnu fight with the Han Dynasty every year, but the hatred of Goguryeo is a little unclear. At that time, Goguryeo birds did not in a poor place, and Wang Mang actually changed the name of Goguryeo to Xia Guli, which is estimated to be the first stick country in the modern disgusting universe, and also changed the name of Xiongnu Shan Yu to surrender to slave ...... He also demoted the king of the minority regime to a marquis, and it can be seen that this traverser is a nationalist.

Secondly, the importance of new technology.

At that time, Wang Mang experimented with many new things that were regarded as strange and ingenious by Confucianism, and also dissected the human body with his own hands.

At that time, someone invented a flying machine, and Wang Mang personally met with that person and gave money to subsidize it, indicating that this traveler until the decisive role of technology in productivity! He also invented the vernier caliper, a precision instrument.

Third, the nationalization of land and the prohibition of private sale. Moreover, the land will be reshuffled, and the couple of landless peasants will be given 100 acres of land, and the state will compensate for the shortfall.

Wang Mang stipulated that 100 acres of land per capita, and the families who occupy more land, whether they are rich or ordinary people, must immediately hand over the land unconditionally and distribute it to the poor, and the land is not allowed to be bought and sold and mortgaged, which is land reform! Isn't this the typical embodiment of socialism? Isn't it just another version of land reform?

It's a pity that it was a feudal system at that time, relying on the landlord, Wang Mang immediately offended the landlord, and this did not do Wang Mang any benefit, indicating that Wang Mang was a traverser, and only the traverser would have the idea of socialist system.

Fourth, the abolition of slavery.

Wang Mang hated slavery very much at that time and forbade the sale of slaves and maids, but the real ban on the sale of slaves and maids was abolished after liberation.

Human life is the most noble in heaven and earth, this was the slogan put forward by Wang Mang! Buying and selling human beings is a criminal act that is "contrary to the will of heaven and against human morality" and must be stopped immediately.

Fifth, Wang Mang forced the unemployed homeless to work, and those who did not have a specific job had to pay a fine of one piece of cloth every year, or hard labor, and the state would bear the burden of food and lodging. It seems that this traverser hated those who did not work for nothing.

Sixth, the state's policy of monopolizing state-owned enterprises, that is, wine, iron, and salt are all state-owned, and the state uniformly issues coins, which used to be minted by the rich. Moreover, the natural resources and mines of mountains and rivers are all state-owned, and private miners are required to pay taxes and register business licenses.

This is typical state capitalism. Isn't this a state-owned monopoly? The state-owned economy is the main body, and the market economy is regulated and controlled at the macro level.

Seventh, the planned economic policy.

Wang Mang implements government price control, prohibits businessmen from hoarding goods for speculation, and businessmen buy and sell goods at will at a price lower than the government's price, a bit like today's price bureau.

When the supply exceeds the demand, the government buys according to the cost, and when the demand exceeds the supply, the government sells it at the usual price, so as to eliminate the gap between the rich and the poor. The typical planned economy shows that this time-traveler is very willing to live around the seventies. The price is higher than the city level, and the city official sells it according to the city level; If it is lower than the market level, it will listen to the people to buy and sell; When daily necessities such as grains and cloth are unsalable, they shall be purchased by the municipal officials at this price.

Eighth, the loan system.

Those who run a business can borrow money from the state, and the state collects one-tenth of the profits, and the state can take out interest-free loans for sacrifices or funerals!

Ninth, taxation.

Wang Mang collects income tax on handicraftsmen or commercial activities involved in buying and selling, which is used to settle prices and loan expenses.

Tenth, Wang Mang once implemented a low-rent housing policy, and invested in the construction of a total of 200 low-rent housing communities in five miles in Chang'an City for the poor to live.

Wang Mang's thoughts should never have appeared at that time, because his thoughts were completely out of touch with the social productive forces and the level of development at that time!

Counting the emergence of new ideas in the history of the world, they are all related to the development of social production at that time, and of course there are ideas that are ahead of the curve, but there has never been an idea that is nearly 2,000 years ahead like Wang Mang.

Wang Mang's policy of restructuring is completely a copy of China's planned economy in the 70s!

Wang Mang was born in a wealthy family and received Confucian culture at most since he was a child, but why did such advanced ideas appear? This kind of thinking could never have appeared in that era when the feudal system was not so perfect!

If Wang Mang appeared in the nineteenth century, he was undoubtedly a successful reformer, Wang Mang's advanced thinking is completely staggering, Wang Mang also proposed that in the ancient dynasty (actually modern society) all people are created equal, as well as the idea of Datong society, etc., the author carefully analyzes that Wang Mang's glorious idea of equality will never appear in the head of a person who has lived in a wealthy family since childhood.

A relatively closed educational ideology since childhood, a world and soil where the feudal system is rampant, there will never be such an idea as Wang Mang! Therefore, Wang Mang is a traverser, and a failed traverser! But what if Wang Mang succeeds? So this book was born.
