The hope is in you.

Robert Reich is really inspirational. He knows about the truth of economical failure and how to cure the failure more than anyone but couldn't enact change, even as a former treasurers. But the guy doesn't lose faith. He relays the message on and inspires the future generations to come. Main takeaway 1) wealth accumulation is problematic because the wealthy could not spend as much as 1000 middle class who own the same amount of wealth, eg you can only sleep on one pillow every night. 2) the...

The film was shot by Zuo Gou, so what?

The problem mentioned in the film can be summed up as a vicious cycle that liberal capitalism cannot solve by itself: in a globalized environment, if the market is completely free, the increase in the productivity of large enterprises will not benefit industrial workers and local industries in a certain place.
The nature of capital enterprises is profit-seeking. In order to reduce costs and squeeze more profits, it can move factories or even entire industries to other regions, hire...

The following Chinese salons from FB

In "The Age of Inequality" I read today, the issues mentioned in it are actually closely related to Taiwan's socioeconomic status quo. There are at least a few points for reference:

1. In the 1970s, the gap between the rich and the poor in the United States was small. One reason was that the labor unions were powerful and could fight for higher wages on behalf of laborers. Is there a reason why labor unions were suppressed by the government-business alliance in the 22K issue in...

Conflict is everywhere

       This film is linked to "The Stealing Oneself", which further exposes the domestic social contradictions in the United States. However, income inequality is inevitable in any country, and it is unclear whether China's tax system can guarantee enough fairness.
        Women work, extend working hours, and the loan system. These ways of dealing with the unequal increase in wages and prices are for a better life. The desire for material cannot be eliminated. For me today, savings,...

2021-7-2 The gap between the rich and the poor in the beautiful country has a long history, a typical Matthew effect, and this trend is getting bigger and bigger. The author, as a former Minister of Labor, made this film in 2013, the purpose is self-evident , I hope to resonate with the society, and I hope that there will be "advanced people" to solve the problem of the growing gap between the rich and the poor. Obviously, there is no way. Since the 17-year-old sweater war, I feel that it has aw

In a leftist documentary, the wolf's tail is completely exposed at the end: tax increases, populism, and equal rights. Under the warm light projection, the intelligent head on the short body of the revolutionist issued the call of the new mission of the era, which is quite prophetic. But the production of the film is indeed very good. The bitterness stories, the voices of the citizens, the data expression and the protagonist's explanation are very convincing. The 1% must be nailed to the...
