Chapter 504 Becoming Thor's Nanny

In the United States, or the more expanded western developed countries. Taxes increase in a stepped fashion. If you look at it in a more intuitive way, the richer people pay higher taxes.

High-income groups, such as NBA players and Hollywood stars. Much of their income is required to pay various taxes.

Of course, there are also various business operations and Wall Street predators who are heavily taxed. Through the hands of the government, the wealth of the society is redistributed, so as to achieve the effect of equalizing the rich and the poor.

It's an ideally great thing to do. But one thing that cannot be ignored here is that the United States is actually a country established by businessmen, large industrial owners and large farmers.

It's not hard to see this from Lincoln's Civil War. It is said to be a war of emancipation, but in fact it is a war of industrialists against farmers.

Factory owners need more people to move into the cities, into the factories. They need people to go to work in factories and pay them to be both workers and consumers.

But not the farmers, they need to trap more slaves on the land, exploiting their value.

From an economic point of view, the essence of the Civil War was the challenge posed by the new industrial era to traditional agricultural forces. Free the slaves? That's just incidental, not that grand.

From the Revolutionary War, to the Civil War, to the two world wars. It has always been the major consortiums that have influenced the will of this country, in short, various capitalists.

And you want to tax capitalists heavily? hehe.

Of course, the law of lawyers, even the capitalists and consortia in Niu must abide by the authority of the US Constitution. Because the rules of the game itself are given by the largest group of capitalists.

Of course, they would not be foolish not to leave a way out for themselves. Who would be willing to simply hand over the huge amount of real gold and silver that he has earned so hard every year to the country?

So except for the easiest immigration to a tax-free country, like Monaco.

Another way is charity. Because charitable donations are tax deductible. For example, a financial giant and a charitable foundation of an electronics giant.

I made a coat with charitable funds, transferred my worth of tens of billions of dollars, and then I didn't have to pay a penny of taxes. Anyway, the foundation stipulates that people from this family must manage it. Naturally, what they say is what they say.

But in this way, not only do you not have to pay taxes, but you can also maintain the luxurious life of the world's richest. And you can make a good name for yourself.

Therefore, there are many big entrepreneurs and big capitalists in the United States who are keen on "philanthropy". Of course, some of them are true and some are false.

But in any case, various charities under the umbrella of major companies are blooming everywhere in the United States.

Such as Osborn's hospital and nursing home for disabled veterans. In addition to helping to reduce taxes, you can also have a good relationship with the military.

Like Almond Hospital, where Thor worked, whether you like it or not. But at the end of the day, medical care in private hospitals is a business. The goods bought with money are health and life.

Since it is a business, it needs to pay taxes. If a businessman does not want to pay all the taxes, he must find ways to avoid taxes reasonably.

For example, the establishment of the Southern Cross Welfare Institute. It mainly accommodates orphans under the age of fourteen. Including children whose parents died due to illness, or whose guardian died unexpectedly or went to jail and lost the ability to live independently.

Although the United States is powerful, its economic aggregate ranks first in the world. But as a big country with a population of more than 300 million, it also bears the highest military expenditure in the world. In fact, the United States does not have a lot of funds that can be invested in population welfare.

From the average point of view, it can only be ranked in the top 50 in the world. The countries with the best welfare will always be those Nordic countries with a small population but a developed economy. Such as Sweden, Switzerland, Luxembourg and other countries.

Therefore, the US government welcomes the influx of private capital into public welfare projects. In fact, the country's public health and welfare resources are already stretched thin. Because the war consumes too much money.

The New York City government gave the green light to the establishment of the Southern Cross Welfare Institute. Not only is the land approval very fast, but also the taxation of Almond Hospital has been preferential.

The mayor at that time had only one request, and that was to ensure that the Southern Cross Orphanage would accept no less than 700 orphans.

Thor's transfer order was very sudden. Before Christine even knew it, Thor followed the members of the personnel department to the Southern Cross Welfare Institute in the southern suburbs of New York.

From the outside, this is a very beautiful orphanage. Looks like the hospital spent a lot of money. The main building is fifteen stories high, with a playground and yard of almost 2,000 square meters. and a three-storey annex.

The main building is a place for children to rest, and the auxiliary building is a dormitory for staff and a place to stay when on duty.

All children are generally grouped according to age. A group of six to eight years old. A group of eight to ten years old. and so on.

Now the Nanji Star Welfare Institute has exceeded the original design, and the number of orphans or children who have temporarily lost their guardians has exceeded 700, and it has reached nearly 1,100.

This has stretched the manpower invested in the hospital. please! The purpose of opening this orphanage at the beginning was to reduce taxes, although from the perspective of humanity and morality. Hospital shareholders don't mind helping some kids.

But the orphanage is a place where there is only investment but no output. If too much money is invested, and it exceeds the range that shareholders can bear, it will be very troublesome.

Therefore, the nurses in the orphanage are actually short of manpower. In most cases, two nurses have to manage 50 children.

There will be more nurses for younger children, and for older children, because of self-discipline, there is often only one nurse in charge. And those children are of the same age most of the time, or about the same age.

But Thor's team is a bit special. He manages fifty children ranging in age from six to fourteen, and he has many more nurses than others. There are four in all, and if Thor is added, there will be five.

"Why?" Thor asked the vice president of the orphanage who led the way and introduced the situation with some puzzlement.

She was an elderly lady who looked like an old lady.

The vice president said unhurriedly: "Because these children are special. Compared with the general children who lose their guardians, they have guardians."

"?" Thor looked at the vice president with some puzzlement, he is no longer a novice who doesn't know anything about the earth. Why do children with guardians come to orphanages?

The vice president went on to say: "Because most of their parents are vicious criminals. Including homicide, underground club organizations, and the manufacture of chemical and hallucinogenic drugs, etc."

"After the police solve the case, they will naturally arrest these people. And the sentences are very heavy, ranging from the death penalty to 15 years in prison." The vice president adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses.

"Although some children still have relatives, it is because their parents are criminals. Many people don't want to have anything to do with them at all. They have no home to go to. If they go to the streets, they will probably follow the same path as their parents. .” The deputy dean took Thor to the southwest corner of the tenth floor, and stopped at a place that said District 2A.

"So in order to help the police, we agreed to take these children in. But I must say that not all children are easy to get along with. Especially these children, what they have been exposed to since childhood makes them feel different from other children."

"It's not the first time that conflicts have even erupted. Children in District 2A have injured other children. So we can only manage them together." The deputy director pointed to a door on the left front and said.

"Thor, that's where you will work in the future. Take care of these children. At least you should be able to do well according to your size." After speaking, the vice-principal squeezed Thor's strong arm, then turned and left. Doesn't look like it's ready to go in.

In fact, Thor has been dizzy since he received this notice early in the morning, and he did a good job at the ambulance. And partnering with Christine just keeps getting better.

Inexplicably, he became the team leader of a nurse, and had to manage four nurses and fifty brats.

Moreover, these bear children are the children of criminals. Although the vice-principal spoke very cryptically, she seemed to mean that these children might have criminal tendencies?

It can be seen from the fact that they are separated into a single area.

Thor shook his head and pushed open the blue door to work in his new work area. A red bucket filled with ice cubes and ice water fell from the sky. Those ice cubes mixed with near-zero ice water moved toward Thor poured it down without thinking.
