"Yes, if the top class donates money to the poor, it will definitely improve their lives." Mint continued to retort, and his voice became louder, "But you can't say that the top class has an obligation to donate money, right? ? Donating money is a kind of charity, not donating is also personal freedom, you can't force people to share their property with the base class?!"

Yuan Yu said in a mocking tone as before, "Okay, then I'll ask you, Mint, why do you think the apex class is rich, and why is the base class relatively poor?"

Without even thinking about it, Mint said confidently: "Of course it's because they don't work hard! Can they make money if they don't work hard? If they don't work hard, who can they blame if they don't have money?!"

As soon as he said this, he felt a little wrong.Didn't hear Yuan Yu's rebuttal, Mint quickly looked into her eyes, and found that Yuan Yu was looking at him with a look of pity and a little bit of astonishment.

It was only then that Mint realized how ridiculously wrong there was in his words.The base class is poorer than the apex class, and even the property of all the base classes with a population of 60 billion is not as much as half of that of the apex class with a population of only 1000 million.However, as an A-family boy of the basic class, Mint clearly knows how hard most of the basic class have to work hard to earn enough money to support themselves and their families, working from morning to night, with only a few pitiful vacations , have no money to travel, even buying a new long dress has to be distressed for a long time, and they dare not get sick at all - those high-end new medicines and treatments invented by the apex class can consume half a year's income of a base class family almost once. .

Anyone who says that the pedestal class is poor because they don't work hard is purely lying.Although Mint doesn't understand the top class and how hard the top class works, the average time and intensity of the work of the base class can be said to have reached a certain physical and psychological limit.If this kind of labor is only worth such a small salary, then according to the same ratio, the top class may have to work tens of thousands of hours a day to reach their current income level.

Some people may say that although the base class works hard, most of those jobs are half the effort, while the top class has super high ability and can easily solve extremely heavy work, which brings income inequality.But is this really the case?At least Mint knows that someone has done research and concluded that there is no significant difference between the base class and the top class in terms of IQ, self-motivation, and ability to deal with emergencies.Moreover, the vast majority of sociological studies include samples from both the apex class and the base class, and have never found any essential differences between them.The apex class is not a "superman" whose work efficiency is significantly higher than that of the base class, and there is no difference in intelligence, cognition, and psychological quality. Because of stupidity and incompetence.

So is it because of education?Mint has a deep understanding of this point.At least in Zhuyu, the schools of the apex class are separated from the base class, and the universities of the base class will not teach courses such as genetic design, black hole electricity, curvature drive, etc., which teach the latest advanced technologies, let alone What kind of advanced management majors will be offered, and they will not even talk about politics and philosophy at all.In the classes at the pedestal-level schools, those teachers just told them that there are high-end technologies and advanced theories on this planet, and they also briefly talked about things that ordinary people would never have anything to do with them in their lifetime. Politics, philosophy, and the international situation, and then focus on the pedagogical goal of how to train these young people from the base class into professional skilled workers.

Mint didn't know what the higher education of the apex class was like, but he could clearly feel that from the very beginning, young people of the base class were taught not to study those "illusory" things, but to recognize You have to work hard to support yourself and your family.Education itself limits their personal development, and they simply cannot get in touch with the most advanced technology and the most advanced theories, and they will never be able to get in touch with the real ruler of the Jade Planet Alliance—the world of the top class.

Because their parents are the base class, they can only go to the base class school, learn what the base class "should learn" (or what the rulers of the apex class think the base class should learn), graduate After that, I will work in the base class, earn a salary at the base class level, and then marry another young man of the base class, and the child will be sent to study in the base class... Maybe the child will work hard to make the whole family happy. From just breaking even to having enough food and clothing, it may also fall from breaking even to making ends meet because the children do not learn well, but no matter what, they can only struggle and fluctuate within the scope of the base class.

The fate of the pedestal class has already been decided.It is not the first time Mint has recognized this point, but it is the first time it has been seen so thoroughly.

He sat down on the chair as if he had lost his soul, staring blankly at the dark wood-like pattern on the restaurant table.However, the other guests around didn't seem to notice that there was anything wrong with this table, they probably just regarded Yuan Yu and Mint as ordinary young couples who were quarreling.

"Do you understand what's wrong?" Yuan Yu said helplessly, "After hearing some words, you have to think about it first. 'Poor is just because you don't work hard'. This kind of statement is obviously overgeneralization and confusing right and wrong."

"I..." Mint suddenly felt sorry for Yuan Yu. She had been arguing for the base class, but he actually refuted her with such a ridiculous point of view, "I shouldn't have said that... I'm sorry, Yuan Yu rain."

"You didn't feel sorry for me. I have nothing to do with this class or that class." Yuan Yu said, "You are sorry for yourself. In other words, it is 'being sold by others and helping count the money'. Of course, in my opinion Now the vast majority of what you call the base class is in this state, so you don't have to feel too stupid."

Mint originally blamed herself for being stupid in her heart, but she was a little unhappy when Yuan Yu said it so bluntly.He also knew that he was in the wrong, but he still couldn't help giving her a blank look, picked up the fork and knocked on Yuan Yu's bowl opposite: "Hey, do you still want to eat?"

"Eat, eat, eat." Yuan Yu said quickly, picked up the bowl a bit rudely but quickly pulled the remaining food in the bowl into his mouth, chewed and swallowed it quickly, but said, "The palace made here Baoji Ding is really unpalatable."
