[Also, the many charitable organizations in the Eagle Sauce Country are still the places where the children of the rich are gilded. 】

[Nowadays, almost all the children of rich families in the society of Eagle Sauce Country are so-called love ambassadors and charity spokespersons. 】

[They don't really care about charity and the lives of poor people, they just go to those charities founded by their fathers to take up fictitious positions, and take the opportunity to add a little charity halo to themselves, and earn a salary by the way.] 】

[After understanding the above, are you still thinking, then these charities give free food to the poor, this is always right?]

......

"Is there anything wrong with that?"

Many ancients of all dynasties continued to look at the giant curtain in the sky with questions.

Listening to the narrator's tone, it doesn't seem that simple.

......

[Yes, that's right, first of all, we must admit that the free food delivery of charitable organizations does prevent the poor from going hungry. ~】

[But if you study this matter carefully, you will find that it is not so simple, this is actually a game carefully designed by the rich class for the poor at the bottom. 】

[First of all, most of those food banks and relief agencies are set up in relatively remote areas, and the poor at the bottom must leave the core area where the rich live if they want to receive food assistance. 】

[To put it simply, as long as the poor can always not disturb the lives of the rich, then the rich can also provide them with food and the most basic living conditions all the time very tacitly, which can be regarded as a tacit agreement between the two parties. 】

[Confine the poor at the bottom to a few places through food, and exchange a few meals for better social security. 】

......

"So there was such a plan?"

Many of the ancients of all dynasties were shocked.

After the shock, some of these poor people felt in their hearts that this was actually not bad.

As long as you have access to free food all the time, staying away from the wealthy is not a problem at all.

But the second point of the video is to let these people know immediately.

These free foods are not as good as they imagined.

......

[Secondly, these free foods are all expiring foods, and by the time they are distributed to the poor, they have already expired.] 】

[I believe everyone has watched the video of the "lecturer" and seen what he eats, rancid bread, rotten fruits, all kinds of frozen meat, ......]

[What to say about the consequences of eating too much of this low-quality, particularly high-oil, high-fat food for a long time?]

[That is, the average life expectancy of homeless people in Eagle Sauce Country is about 48 years old, which is nearly 30 years lower than the normal people in Eagle Sauce Country. 】

......

"It's too bad!"

Many ancients in all dynasties were filled with righteous indignation.

They don't know what high-fat foods are.

However, the intuitive comparison of life expectancy data instantly made the ancients understand that eating too much of this food will lead to a short life.

As a result, those poor ancients who originally thought that receiving free food was a good thing did not feel that way in an instant.

If you live for a few decades at a time, who is willing to do this?

......

[The reasons for the wandering of these poor people in the Eagle Sauce Country are different, such as serious illness and return to poverty, drug abuse, bankruptcy, and so on. 】

[They are undoubtedly the losers of the current social system in the Eagle Sauce Country, and the rich philanthropists are the beneficiaries of the current system. 】

[The generosity of philanthropy is rooted in the fact that the rich occupy more wealth, and while they give alms to the poor, they produce more poor people in batches. 】

[Charity does not change any power structure, but is a continuation of the power of the rich. 】

Barrage flying:

"At the end of the day, Ci is also a business. "

"Reply – 5% of a charitable foundation can be exempted from paying a large amount of taxes, which is indeed good business. "

"Reply - not to mention, you can still make accounts for the purchase of expiring food, and the book price can be much worse than the actual price, but I am afraid that in fact, even 5% is not out. "

"Western philanthropy is supposed to be a struggle between capitalists and the government for power. "

"Reply - that's right, if these rich people don't do charity and only pay taxes, then the tax money will be used by the government for public utilities, that is, it is beneficial to all the people, and now they do charity and don't pay taxes, how to use this money, it is up to the rich people themselves to decide. "

"Reply - I don't think it can be called a struggle for power, after all, the power of the capitalist countries is actually in whoever understands it, and it is more like a cooperation between the two sides to act for the majority of poor people. "

"Reply - that's right, American-style charity is a trick that the big capitalists have to do to deceive the government by occupying too much property in society, causing strong dissatisfaction and riots among the people at the bottom. "

“......"

Many ancients in all dynasties watched these barrages and discussed, and the more they watched, the more shocked they became.

They didn't expect that behind the charity that seemed to be a good thing, there were so many calculations hidden.

The Ming Dynasty became the ancestor plane.

Zhu Di vaguely understood.

Such a matter that obviously harms the interests of the country can be tolerated by the government of Eagle Sauce Country.

That can only show that the government of the Eagle Sauce Country and those big rich people are the same people.

......

The poor need food and opportunity, but charity can only or only provide them with food. 】

[Fundamentally, the capitalists who set up charitable foundations never thought of solving the problem of poverty once and for all. 】

[Because this requires a radical change in the way wealth is distributed in capitalist countries, and it will shake the foundations of capitalist countries.] 】

Barrage flying:

"The extreme concentration of wealth is inherently characteristic of capitalist society, and this mode of distribution cannot be changed. "

"Reply - that's right, don't look at what Western countries are shouting about common prosperity after our country, it is impossible under that kind of system. "

"Reply - common prosperity to eliminate polarization and rebuild the way of distribution of social wealth, the capitalists will definitely not do it. "

"Reply – I really hope that there will be a day when everyone can achieve a well-fed standard of living through hard work and helping each other, and that would be great. "

"Reply - it is better to imagine the red-ist society living at the highest stage, that is the real ideal society. "

"Reply - hahaha, that's true, I can live in that kind of society for a day, and I'm satisfied. "

"Reply - with the current stage of productivity, it is more reliable to think about common prosperity, which is the ultimate contradiction plan that China has given to human society. "

“......"

Look at these barrages of discussions.

Many ancients in all dynasties were shocked:

"Common prosperity?

"Is this really possible?"

Many of the ancients were in disbelief.

What kind of society does it take to achieve this?

And also.

What kind of society is the "highest stage of red-ism" in the mouths of later generations?

How do you feel that in the mouths of future generations, it is more desirable than a common prosperity society?

In the hearts of many ancients in all dynasties, they were extremely curious about this "red-style society at the highest stage".

......

High in the sky.

Video refresh.

A new video appears.

[The Nature of Poverty - Don't Believe in the Poor Man's Thinking!]

[Former Prime Minister Mrs. Margaret Thatcher once said: "Poverty is a personality defect."] 】

[The implication is that poverty is a purely personal problem, not a social one. 】

[In just nine words, it defines nearly 1.2 billion poor people in the world, which not only reflects the arrogance of the elite, but also speaks of the discrimination against the poor in the whole society. 】

[Since the unequal distribution of wealth in society, the poor who are the victims have been alienated and degraded in various ways, and they have been said to be a burden to human progress and a burden to the bad government of a weak country. 】

[They are considered lazy, short-sighted, stupid, and full of poor thinking.] 】

It is precisely these perceptions full of misunderstandings and prejudices that lead to the futility of almost all social assistance, and then deepen the misunderstanding and prejudice of society against them again. 】

......

See here.

Many poor people in all dynasties were stunned for a moment.

Accusations like these, they've heard them.

Some rich people often say that they are lazy, don't work hard, aren't smart enough, etc., so they can't make money.

And at the same time.

They also often hear about the wise deeds of the wealthy.

It seems to say that the reason why the rich can be rich is because the rich themselves are very smart and capable.

In time.

They themselves kind of accepted this statement.

But looking at the meaning of the people of the future at this moment, it seems that this is not the case.

These ordinary people continued to look at the giant screen in the sky with questions.

......

[Two Nobel laureates in economics, Banerjee and Dufllo, discovered some strange phenomena after surveying the 18 countries and regions with the highest concentrations of poor people in the world.] 】

[Poor people would rather not pay their rent than spend money on a TV or iPad.] 】

[The poor always pay a high price for treatment when they get sick, rather than taking preventive measures in advance. 】

[The poor are happy to have more children, but they are not willing to let any of them finish primary school.] 】

[These decisions, which seem unbelievable to ordinary people, are the most common phenomenon in poor areas. 】

[It is precisely these phenomena that make the rich who think they are smart feel that the poor are poor because they are too stupid. (Read the violent novel, go to the Feilu Novel Network!)

In other words, it is the poor people's cognitive weakness that causes their poverty. 】

[But, is this really the case?]

......

The plane of the Great Ming Taizu.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the giant screen, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

He really climbed up from the bottom of society.

I've seen all kinds of people in my life.

The so-called rich and poor people in the giant screen, in his opinion, can actually be said to be successful and unsuccessful.

According to his observations, most of the people who have achieved success, especially great success, have some kind of merit.

And those who fail, in addition to bad luck, many are indeed not smart enough, lack ability, and have poor vision.

But listening to the words of the people of the future at this moment, it seems that there is another mystery in it.

What could it be?

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little curious.

......

Let's look at a study. 】[]

Most of the villagers living in the Tamil Nadu region of the three kingdoms of Afghanistan make a living by growing sugarcane. 】

[There are large periods of fluctuations in the income of these sugarcane farmers, harvesting once a year, and then receiving more than 60% of their annual income at one time. 】

[This means that during the year when the sugar cane is first harvested, they live more comfortably, and the rest of the year they are relatively poor.] 】

[The researchers followed 464 sugarcane farmers here, and they tested their cognitive abilities before and after the harvest.] 】

[The results found that the IQ of sugarcane farmers before the harvest was much lower than that after the harvest, and the difference was almost 13-14 IQ points, which is equivalent to the gap between a person when he is sober and when he is drunk. 】

[The same group of people, in the state of having money and lacking money, have changed their cognitive abilities dramatically. 】

[Researchers theorize that low IQs are not inherent in poor people, but rather that poor environments make them have low IQs.] 】

In other words, the reason why poor people make stupid decisions is not because they are stupid, but because they live in an environment where anyone would make stupid decisions. 】

Therefore, the discovery of the Nobel laureate in economics is not the reason why the poor cannot get rid of poverty, but the result of poverty. 】

......

The plane of Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

The eldest grandson Wuji opened his mouth and questioned:

This statement of the people of later generations is inevitably biased. "

"A poor family can also produce noble sons, and not all people who are born poor are stupid. "

Li Shimin replied:

"What the auxiliary machine says is true. "

"I thought that was too absolute. "

"For example, King Bin, although he was born in a poor peasant family, his talent is better than that of countless wealthy families. "

The "King Bin" in his mouth is the word of the Tang Dynasty Zhishu and the Imperial Shi Ma Zhou.

This person was personally pulled up by him from the micro end, and he recognized this person's ability very much.

And Li Shimin's vision is indeed no problem.

Ma Zhou was known as the "able minister to govern the world" in later generations, and he repeatedly admonished Li Shimin, playing a positive role in the political reform during the Zhenguan period and even the formation and continuation of the "rule of Zhenguan".

After hearing Li Shimin's praise at this moment, Ma Zhou hurriedly saluted Li Shimin and said:

"Your Majesty praises falsely, and the ministers are terrified!"

"Hahaha, King Bin doesn't need to be humble, get up quickly. "

Li Shimin replied with a smile.

Seeing that the two monarchs and ministers got along, some of the Tang officials present were quite envious of Ma Zhou in their hearts.

In addition to those important ministers who once followed Li Shimin to fight the world, Ma Zhou is definitely one of the most trusted ministers by Li Shimin.

Since he was promoted to the court by Li Shimin, he has been promoted all the way.

Of course, they also recognize Ma Zhou's ability and talent.

Therefore, judging from the example of Ma Zhou, the so-called "poor environment will make people stupid" in later generations does not seem to be quite right.

Many Tang courtiers looked at the giant screen in the sky and questioned it in their hearts.

......

[As early as more than 70 years ago, "1984", one of the dystopian trilogy, mentioned that the essence of poverty is to destroy the future. 】

[When the poor are worried about whether they can eat the next meal, there is no extra psychological bandwidth to make long-term plans. 】

[This sense of powerlessness and urgency makes them have to focus all their energy on the trivial matters in front of them, and this state can be called "scarcity". 】

[When the money in the hands of the poor cannot meet the most basic needs of the moment, they will fall into a state of scarcity. 】

[They don't care how much debt they have in the future, whether they will get sick, whether their children can go to school, the most important thing for them is to be able to eat and sleep, so that their life is about to suffocate. 】

[Unfortunately, lack of money leads to wrong choices, which in turn lead to greater financial, health and educational risks, further exacerbating poverty, and getting deeper and deeper into self-help.] 】

[The vicious circle of poverty, no matter who comes, cannot be left alone, those well-dressed rich people, experts full of economic terms, throw any of them in, will only be slapped in the face by reality. 】

......

The Ming Dynasty became the ancestor plane.

Zhu Di sighed slightly:

"Cangyu really knows etiquette, and food and clothing are enough to know honor and disgrace. "

Hearing this, Zhu Gaochi on the side agreed in his heart.

When a person is hungry and unclothed every day, his biggest or only goal is to find food and clothing, and he is unlikely to think about more and more long-term things.

However, nothing is absolute.

"Dad, people from poor backgrounds actually have long-term vision. "

Zhu Gaochi opened his mouth and said to Zhu Di.

Zhu Di nodded.

He knew that very well.

Zeng Di, the first champion of the Yongle Dynasty who he hand-picked, was from a real poor family.

When this person was young, he needed to make a living by chopping wood, working as a husband and other physical work, and even his reading enlightenment relied on stealing teachers and self-learning.

Under such difficult conditions, this person can finally become the champion, which is enough to prove that this person is a person with a strong will and a long-term goal.

and his household secretary Xia Yuanji, who was also born poor.

So.

Zhu Di feels that the poor environment will indeed bring a lot of difficulties to people, and people need to run for a living.

This can hinder people's thinking and prevent many people from thinking too far ahead.

But to say that it must be short-sighted is not right.

It all comes down from person to person.

......

[So, in summary, there is only one root cause of poverty: lack of money. 】

[After understanding this, we can understand why many poverty alleviation programs have not played a substantive role?]
