Chapter 2063

Chapter 2062

There is no organization, no program, no leader. The black riot quickly subsided, and the blacks suffered heavy casualties.

But surprisingly, the civil commotion subsided quickly... In fact, when the government really makes up its mind to do something, it is difficult for the people to resist. It can only be said that America is not exhausted. On the whole, everyone still hopes for a peaceful life, and there is no sudden riot.

Of course, this is also related to the international situation.

It's not just the United States that is like this. Similar riots have basically occurred in Western countries. It's not that there are people connecting with each other. It's mainly because everyone's life has not been easy in the past few years. There is a saying that they are called poor and lowly couples. Sorry for everything.

This is also true at the national level.

When the economy is good, all contradictions are not contradictions. After all, if you have money, you can talk about anything, and everyone is not stingy about the benefits. But as a series of events led to a global economic recession, everyone could no longer make money. Then comes the problem.

Everyone will get involved, and then each other will feel that their interests have been violated... In fact, there are many reasons why everyone's life is poor, not just immigration, but problematic emotions always need to be vented!

For example, riots broke out in France recently, which have nothing to do with the anomalies in France itself.

The riots in France originated from a small incident.

On June 27, in Nanterre, Hauts-de-Seine, France, a police officer opened fire while stopping a car, resulting in the death of a 17-year-old boy driving the car. In this case, it was the boy who refused to obey the police. What provoked the police to draw their guns was that the French police had acted improperly in enforcing the law. He was guilty of criminal responsibility. In fact, this can be found out with a slightly more detailed investigation. There are criminals in every country in the world, and there are also situations where the police enforce the law excessively. As long as the society is fair and as long as most people can treat this matter with a peaceful attitude, then the truth will definitely be unearthed. Whoever is at fault or commits a crime will be punished. This is not a big deal, and I believe that similar things may have happened in any country, but unfortunately, it happened in France today. France was already full of social conflicts, and then this little incident ignited the anger of almost everyone.

Especially when people learned that the dead young man was an African-American from the lower-middle class, people equated this simple public security case or violent police law enforcement case with the oppression of the middle- and lower-class people by the government police. Coincidentally, at the end of last year, Netflix launched a film and television series called "Athena". It tells the story of the great riots and riots in France 18 years ago in 2005. If you can, you can Go online and take a look at this film and television series, because it is said that many of the scenes were spliced ​​together from 2005 scenes.

Whether it is the 2005 riots or the "Athena" film and television drama, they are very similar to the reality in France today. It seems that the French want to use actions to practice the content of this film and television drama. Some French police officers even said that the reality of what happened today was ten times more tragic than the TV dramas and the 2005 riots. On June 27, a 17-year-old boy died. Starting from the night of the 28th, riots of varying degrees occurred in many French cities. During the riots from June 30 to the early morning of July 1, the police arrested 1,300 people across the country. Many people were arrested, including 406 people arrested in the capital Paris. The average age of the arrested rioters is only 17 years old.

So people can't help but ask what happened to France? In fact, many problems can be concluded from an economic perspective. The French economy has encountered major problems in the past two years, and the employment situation of young people has become worse and worse. Therefore, many conflicts that were covered up in the past have now exploded. In particular, we saw that almost all of the people participating in the parade were young people, all minors, so much so that Macron issued a call to the parents of these children, asking them to control their children. Even senior French officials said that if If a family has a child participating in a demonstration and rioting and is arrested by the police, the child's parents will also be held criminally responsible or even fined.

France actually faces two-level problems. On the one hand, France is too dark. France is a white country. However, with the continuous influx of immigrants of all kinds in recent years, France's national color has long changed. Even the most typical one is the French national football team. If you were not told that this is a French team, just by looking at the skin color, you might think it is an African team. The influx of a large number of African Americans into France will indeed solve the problem of France's labor shortage, but on the other hand, a large number of newly introduced immigrants belong to the bottom class of society, with extremely low income and poor living conditions, and even a slight economic disadvantage. They are the first to lose their jobs when there is any trouble.

Obviously, their lives have not been easy recently. Domestic conflicts have become increasingly prominent, crises have intensified, inflation has soared and prices have risen, and calls for salary increases have increased.

In fact, these resources are insufficient, and the upper management is unwilling to give up the benefits, leading to internal conflicts.

In fact, the best solution is to redistribute social resources... But the problem is that this is equivalent to revolution, and no one is willing to give up their own interests to others. Another way is to find new points of interest from the outside... In British history, there has been a situation of internal circulation. The crime rate of the poor has increased sharply, so Britain began to send poor criminals to Australia by ship to ease the contradictions, and at the same time encouraged people to immigrate to America. If they can't afford the ticket, they can sell themselves as indentured slaves. By exporting population and robbing resources with national power, Britain has avoided turmoil. The principle behind it is by no means that Britain has a panacea. Constantly expanding the boundaries of resources and exporting population at the same time can avoid social turmoil caused by internal circulation.

Unfortunately, this trick is useless now.

Let's take our Daiying as an example. Britain has now lost its industrial capacity, that is, the ability to "rob" resources using technology, and has lost the ability to rob violently. All problems will be exposed. Can the democratic system correct them? In theory, it can be used to allocate assets from the upper class to the middle and lower classes through taxation or other means. If it cannot be done, it will only become more and more turbulent. This is a moderate reform. It is said that Napoleon was a dictator, but Napoleon carried out land reform, which made democracy more difficult to reform. Interest groups have more room for operation under the democratic system.

The Chinese historical cycle can be attributed to the periodic killing of the upper class, unrest to eliminate the surplus population, and then redistributing the land, starting over again, until the contradiction between population and land (food) resources once again reaches the critical point. Zhang Juzheng's "One Whip Law" in the Ming Dynasty and Yongzheng's "Dian Ding Ru Mu" were essentially direct taxes based on the distribution of property at the time. With the continuous growth of population, further taxation will only aggravate social contradictions. People with property have low tax burdens, and people without property cannot afford it. Once the survival line is reached, there will be a big turmoil. The Republic of China carried out a constitutional revolution at the upper level, but the result was the same as the Weimar Republic in Germany at the same time. Without land reform, the lives of the lower class could not be improved, and there would eventually be a violent revolution at the lower level. What is important is not the form of constitutionalism. If the Republic of China cannot make the lives of most people better than those of the Qing Dynasty, the equal citizenship rights of all people will bring spiritual pleasure to the upper class, but will not help the most urgent material satisfaction of the lower class.

In a country like the United States, some people boast about the separation of powers, and some people boast about the Constitution. The greatest luck of the United States is the abundance of land resources. In 1783, when the country was founded, there were 3 million people and 2 million square kilometers. In 1900, there were 9 million square kilometers and 76 million people. It has not been harmed by resource shortages for a long time, and the labor income has continued to be higher than that of old Europe. Killing people to occupy land. Then, Americans talked about the advantages of the system, and others ignored the resource constraints and followed suit. As a result, the United States has accumulated enough contradictions with only 300 million people. The United States is no exception and is also subject to the constraints of the law. The United States has now lost the dignity of its heyday, and as the United States goes downhill, its racial and religious contradictions will definitely erupt. Just like the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the Lien Army, Yunnan, Shaanxi, Gansu and Xinjiang riots that broke out during the Xianfeng and Tongzhi years, when it rains, it will rain. Will Britain and the United States be able to cope better than the Qing Dynasty?

Regardless of whether it is China or the West, or any system, there is no easy way to rob resources for national growth, or to use technology for internal growth and "rob" resources from the outside, or to carry out internal tax reform. There is no easy way, and no other good recipe. In summary, reform on the one hand, investment on the other, and the rest of the recipes are useless.

However, for a while, it is unlikely that a revolution will happen.

After all, everyone is playing identity politics.

The real elites have been bought... Although I don't think elites are a good thing, a group of grassroots people want to unite and work for a common goal, so they need people to lead... This is the objective law of the development of things.

...

With the chaos of the world situation, the US government finally knew what the warning of the ancient one meant at that time.

However, they did not expect that the scope of the impact would be so wide. Of course, this is also related to the current situation. The root cause of the chaos is not those visitors from other dimensions. They are just the trigger. In essence, all countries in the world have accumulated a lot of contradictions. Those monsters and demons from other dimensions essentially just ignited these contradictions. Let them burst out all at once.

At the same time, Kai finally returned to his loyal Earth.

He didn't expect that the situation on Earth would become like this in just a few days.

"That is to say, now only the Hong Kong Temple has not been destroyed?"

Kai met Strange who was recovering at the New York Presbyterian Hospital.

Strange's injuries were very serious and he really couldn't leave the hospital for a while. Again, not everyone can do healing magic. This thing is like mathematical talent. If you know it, you know it, and if you don't, you really don't know it. Strange originally thought that he was a doctor and should have talent in this area. However... Although Strange's spell talent is first-class, he still doesn't have the talent for healing magic. This has nothing to do with whether he is a doctor or not.

So he can only lie in the hospital.

Fortunately, he is not completely useless. He is given the power to contact the outside world, which is considered as Kamar-Taj's external contact.

This will not affect his cultivation. He only needs his soul to leave his body to talk to people normally... Although the person he is talking to will be a little uncomfortable, it is not a big problem. His body is still lying on the bed to recuperate.

But Strange himself doesn't like this very much.

"It seems that I also need to go to Hong Kong."

Speaking of which... Kai has never been back to China in his life.

This suddenly made Kai feel homesick.

Although he knew that China in this time and space was actually two different things from his hometown, at least Kai's hometown did not have such a thing as the Spear Bureau.

In fact, when Kai went all the way east, he knew that he could not go back to his hometown. It was just that he still had some thoughts at that time, so he continued. When the road to the east was cut off, Kai gave up and returned to the British Isles.

"Take me with you, I'm almost suffocated, I feel my spine is about to rot, I can't lie down anymore!"

Strange knew about dragon bone extract. Although he didn't know the true situation of this thing, he knew that Kai had a panacea that could cure all diseases!

Strange once hoped that Tony could get him some.

Whether it was out of the doctor's professional habits or the wizard's desire to explore unknown things, Strange was very eager for dragon bone extract.

However, Tony knew how sensitive this thing was. Without Kai's permission, he would never leak it to anyone. Those old men in the government had been bothering him for a long time in order to regain their youth! If they knew that there was a magical medicine like dragon bone extract in the world with no side effects, who knows how crazy these guys would be.

Kai thought about it and felt that it was okay to bring Strange with him.

So he took out a small bottle.

He dripped two drops of dragon bone extract on Strange.

The magical thing happened again. The serious injury that should have taken at least a few years to recover was repaired quickly in just a few seconds!

In the blink of an eye!

Strange watched Kai put away the dragon bone extract with a little regret.

The last time he saw dragon bone extract was in Asgard. After Surtur and Hela failed, Kai used this thing to keep Odin alive.

As a result, it now seems that this thing is more magical than he thought.

After Strange felt that there was nothing wrong with his body, he pulled off all the catheters and instruments on his body.

Then Strange's ex-girlfriend rushed over with a nurse. After this guy took off the equipment on his body, the equipment immediately sounded an alarm.

They thought Strange was dead.

When they rushed in, they found that Strange was taking off his clothes... This unscientific scene stunned everyone present.
