The famous detective in the comic world

Chapter 482 Unemployment
"Shirley, do you know the hourly wages of these monastic workers?"

Looking at those workers, He Nan sighed and expressed emotion.

Regarding He Nan's question, Shirley snorted.

"Don't know, but I'm guessing pretty high."

"Yes, it's quite high. Nowadays, all the positions of cultivating Taoism and building repairs are highly paid." He Nan frowned: "However, now only workers in this industry can find a job. Most factories have There are almost no assembly line operator jobs. There are more and more unemployed workers, then they go into the slums, and finally join gangs because they have no way to survive... I think this is one of the core reasons why the crime rate is high and the gangs are getting more and more aggressive .”

"Well. There are too many reasons. But this can definitely be selected as one of the most important factors." Shirley paused, and finally said: "But it seems that there is no way to solve it. There are no suitable factory positions. I gave it to them, but they are not used to other jobs. In the end, the conflict must become more and more intense."

"That's why every candidate for mayor will write a lot about the unemployment rate...they are all talking about how they will solve the unemployment rate problem." He Nan snorted: "I really don't think there is any one of them It can really solve the problem.”

The rising unemployment rate is a knot in the United States that cannot be untied.

At least, that is the case under current policies.

Take the workers as an example. They negotiate with the factory through the workers' union and continue to ask for more favorable conditions. Although they can prevent being exploited, it also leads to more and more demands from them.For example, do less work, get more pay, and strike if you don't work.Eventually it may even reach an unreasonable level.As long as the capitalists do not meet their demands, they will go on strike indefinitely.

And capitalists find that the cost of hiring workers to work is getting higher and higher. In this case, it is better to transfer the factory to a third world country and let them do the work.Or, just replace all factories in the United States with machines.Because the remuneration required by the workers is too high, it is better to put all of them on the fully automatic assembly line, which is cheaper in comparison.

As a result, workers are unemployed.

How to solve this problem, there is no way to solve it.

Because it is impossible for you to ask workers to voluntarily lower their treatment.

In fact, it is also unreasonable.

Because once the workers show weakness, the capitalists will start bottomless exploitation again.

And as soon as the workers resisted, they stopped hiring workers.Or just hire immigrants who are willing to do more work for less pay.Most of these immigrants are Mexicans.

Neither side can compromise.

It is also impossible for capitalists to feed the increasingly voracious appetite of American workers at a loss.

Once an infinite loop starts, it cannot be stopped.

In the comic world, the problem is even more serious.

Because technology is more developed, there are more and more automated assembly lines.

When machines and labor are almost cheap, or even only a little more expensive, capitalists will switch to machines without hesitation.

Because of this peace of mind.Workers can no longer threaten them with strikes all day long, and orders can be delivered on time.

Therefore, the law and order in the American manga world is generally very poor, which is inseparable from the unemployment problem.

Every U.S. government has said that it will solve this problem and introduce a certain policy to provide XXX jobs, but that is only a temporary relief, not a real solution.

People are still unemployed.

The employment rate in the United States has not been really improved, and many people at the bottom have no jobs, as if they have slipped into the abyss.

What can you get them to do?

Many people began to degenerate, or can only degenerate.

Forced to join a gang and start doing illegal business.

Black people are the easiest to do this, because despite the disgusting political correctness, companies basically tend not to hire black people when they have a choice.They are most likely to lose their jobs.

As a result, there are more and more black gangsters, causing their children to be born in chaotic gang territory, and eventually become gang members because of poverty and unhealthy growth environment.

Then it's a vicious cycle again.

He Nan couldn't figure out how to solve this problem, and he also felt that no one could figure it out.Otherwise, someone would have proposed an effective solution to such a large social problem that has lasted for many years, instead of giving one delay after another like nesting dolls.

The American system is like this, which has social disadvantages in this regard.

There is no way.

"I think that sooner or later, these road construction workers will have to leave." He Nan said in a low voice, "The employment rate will be further reduced by then. The more intelligent machinery technology develops, the deeper the social contradictions in this regard will be. Who knows how fucking messed up New York will be by then."

"Well, yes. People have been raising concerns in this regard, but technology will not stop because of this." Shirley looked out of the window quietly, and said: "It's still how to develop. Fully automatic assembly line is the development trend .Sooner or later, these highly substitutable jobs with no barriers to entry will completely disappear.”

"The factory replaced the screw with a more hard-working version that would not cause trouble, and then created more poor people on the street. Some of them successfully transformed, some became homeless and struggled to survive, and some became gangs." He Nanwrinkled Frowning: "The problem is that there are too many gangs in New York, so unemployment here is more likely to turn into the worst outcome."

"It may be the worst for ordinary people, but being an errand boy for a gangster is better than being a homeless man." Shirley pondered for a moment, then said again.

Thinking about it this way, it is very reasonable why the law and order in New York is so bad in Marvel and the criminals can't be caught no matter how hard they try.

After all, the background of the entire United States is placed there.

Too many people have lost their jobs and have no income.

When cornered, it's easy to lose heart, seek refuge in a favorite gang, and become a horse boy from then on.

Working here, there is even a fairer promotion mechanism than outside society.Any small character who can only steal cars to collect protection fees at the beginning may gradually become a small boss after successfully surviving a few gun battles.

As for being the eldest brother, don't even think about it, I'm afraid I'm tired of working.

If you have this idea, dare to reveal it?Then your good brother can leak your words, and then let you be stuffed in a sack and tied to a stone to sink into the sea.

How should I say this?

It can only be said that it is impossible to verify how many corpses sank under the bay of New York.

Most of them may have been caught by the police, but there are definitely some perfectly sunken ones still left there.
