Nanfang Shuo said that regardless of any society, the middle class is the most important stabilizing force. Because most of them are a little skilled working and working people, and their economic conditions are fair, their values are more personal. They will not go. Annoying, and don't want to be annoyed by the government. They have clear rights and obligations, and most of them hope to live their lives peacefully and happily in this way. But this humble desire has now become more and more distant.
Moore said that the middle class in the United States has disappeared. The life of buying a house based on the workmanship of a company, and changing a new car for three years no longer exists.
Here I suddenly realized: According to the standard of the middle class in the United States 50 years ago and the definition of the middle class in Nanshuo, buying a house and buying a car are a bit technical and personal and hope to settle down in this situation. Today's middle class in mainland China seems to be fundamental It doesn’t exist. The kind of people mentioned by Nanfang Shuo in China are the same as those in the United States. They have become Peasant. I want to be more precise when translated as migrant workers. It is not difficult to explain that young people do not work hard. Unless you become a public servant or a red top, as in the United States, you are working on Wall Street in a suit and shoes, otherwise you are a Peasant. They have American Dreanm, we also have Chinese Dream, haha, haha, hahahaha.
The United States was controlled by businessmen, while China was controlled by public servants and red-top merchants. From this point of view, the Chinese middle class was born in the era of Yang Wanwan, and ended after being connected with the world, just over 10 years. The world is similar. We who were born in the 1980s have witnessed an era, Chinese and global. I mean, since the 1980s, the United States has become a money-making tool for Wall Street, and China has become a granary for public servants to keep on rattling. Soviet Russia was bought by red oligarchs who were cruel and quick-eyed. The world is transforming into a world of rich and poor in such a synchronized manner, it makes people unsure whether they have destiny in the dark.
American dream is like an American love. The Americans lost their love, and then the Chinese began to pursue her. How long will it take for Chinese people to taste the bitter fruit of broken love?
Perhaps Moore has given us a conclusion, democracy. Who knows?
