Chapter 3 The Logic from Shit to Aircraft Carrier
Saint Loduo in 2018 is actually pretty good.
The fallen leaves in late autumn are beautiful, and it will be even more beautiful if the garbage on the ground is removed.
Due to insufficient municipal budgets, sanitation expenditures have been cut, and the frequency of cleaning in some neighborhoods has been reduced. Correspondingly, the level of sanitation has naturally declined with the decrease in cleaning frequency.
Twice a week is excellent, and once every two weeks is also okay.
From a young perspective, this is a health issue or a quality issue.
But from a larger perspective, behind the scenes is the gradual collapse of America's basic public service system.
Although America has its own national conditions, each state determines its own budget.
But from the collapse of the automobile city to the outflow of industrial capital to low-cost industrial countries such as Asia.
From the "no man's land" in downtown Detroit, which is crowded with poor people, to the downtown of Los Angeles, which is also crowded with homeless people.
All the gifts of destiny have a price tag.
Making capital wealth by relying on the dividends of the financial system is as satisfying as taking a happy pill.
What’s the price?
The real industry has shrunk, industrial workers have lost their jobs, and the growth of the middle class has stagnated.
There is a devil hidden in too many fatal details.
Cheng Daqi, who came from 2023 to 2018, was fascinated by the dog poop on the curb on the red street in Los Angeles and sighed.
“If we continue like this, it’s no wonder that more than half of the eleven aircraft carrier battle groups are trapped in our own shipyard, and twenty more ships will be for nothing!”
Sani looked at Cheng in surprise. Great weapon.
Black sister doesn’t quite understand.
Hi, man, areyouserious?
We are all thick people wandering the streets, and no one knows who is who.
How many days have you not washed your socks? Are you lamenting about the American aircraft carrier?
Still looking at shit and sighing about aircraft carriers?
Cheng Daqi really gave her an unprecedented feeling.
That feeling of walking down the street together and you can't help but take two steps away and pretend you don't know each other.
This is a long-standing problem with adults.
Is it normal for a middle-aged man to like to study military affairs when he has nothing to do?
In fact, America's 11 aircraft carriers can form up to six aircraft carrier battle groups, and the rest require maintenance.
If an aircraft carrier leaves port for four months, it will need to dock or be stationed in port for maintenance for a total of eight months on average (the average approximate value is obtained by taking all the aircraft carrier's attendance time).
After the manufacturing industry shrank, the U.S. shipbuilding industry struggled to sustain itself. There were only a few large shipyards that could repair and maintain aircraft carriers, and aircraft carrier repairs actually had to be queued for several months.
This is similar to the homeless people who become adults and queue up to beg for food!
The well-known acquaintance Richard caught fire because of improper maintenance.
Unbelievable.
(Laughter, I am going to die laughing when I write this)
What is even more outrageous is that in November before the time travel of a large machine in 2023, some aircraft carriers in the United States were trying to maintain certain situations. , working over the limit for several months.
There are eleven aircraft carriers, a few more are waiting in the dock for repairs, and a few are being repaired slowly.
To really be able to attend work, half a hand or three fingers is enough.
Hard to imagine, right?
But it’s true!
According to calculations by military enthusiasts, by some time in 2024, the number of combat-effective aircraft carrier battle groups of the US military may be reduced to one.
Just like the British nuclear submarines, there are a bunch of submarines, all under maintenance. When I check, there is only one on duty. Angsa characteristics?
Just like when you go to work, there are a total of eleven people in a department joined by colleagues.
While working, ten people are lying down and squeezing your feet comfortably while watching you work alone.
It can only be said that Great America has too much work.
"God, my"
A little old man with an unattractive appearance held a scripture and stood on a wooden stool to preach.
In front of him was a long queue for relief.
This is a church relief point where you can receive certain supplies for free.
Usually it’s food, but from time to time there are some other miscellaneous items.
For example, black girl Sani got her shoes from the church relief center.
Sounds good, right?
You may not get it after waiting in line for an hour.
Expenditure costs are borne by the entire society.
One hundred dollars are distributed above, and the man behind the congressman takes a big bite first, and the distribution agency opened by the congressman's family takes a few more bites, and they get a kickback for specific purchases.
How many of them end up in the hands of homeless people?
Benefits?
Wrong! Let’s all get rich together!
Regulation?
Who in the audience is suing me?
Sue to Washington?
Stop it, kid. The referees, game licenses, witnesses, organizers, and co-organizers all belong to me. How can you play with me?
Behind California’s high welfare is the highest tax rate in the United States!
Musk ran away.
Oracle also ran away.
There used to be a saying that if you love someone, send him to New York, which is heaven; if you hate someone, send him to New York, there is hell.
Now replace New York with California, and that’s basically the status quo.
Perhaps it is a paradise for homeless people and a hell for the middle class?
Why was the California asylum bill passed in the state assembly?
The costs for businesses and households are too high.
The company's employee benefits are too high, and companies that are too high to harvest global profits are devastated.
In addition to those global leading companies in various fields, a considerable number of lower-income companies are miserable.
Family service expenditures are too high. A quarter of a month’s income is taxed, and the remaining money starts to be stretched after a little spending.
Chen Ping's inequality sounds funny, but the logic behind it has a certain degree of objectivity (it's not a brainless black or brainless red, please take your time and take a look).
California needs cheap labor to maintain its own economic development, such as allowing the local middle class to enjoy low-cost maid fees and gardener fees.
The state government is unwilling to reform the tax system and laws, so it can only come up with a compromise method to supplement the labor force.
Asylum Bill?
No, the labor reform bill!
Want to live a decent life?
Work illegally in California, kid!
I had a lot of fun writing it hahaha
