Chapter 148: The repercussions of the social welfare system

Xia Xuan quickly returned to the palace on the underground maglev train. The accompanying pioneers and magicians went to the National Security Bureau of the Imperial City.

As the beginning of summer is approaching, the originally solemn and magnificent palace has been covered with glazed lanterns, and a team specializing in arranging state banquets began to prepare for the state banquet in ten days in the palace.

Xia Xuan returned to the Central Palace all the way, and read what happened in the main world recently.

……

First, the situation in the Dongxia Empire: Li Zhiguo, the first assistant, began to implement his political ambitions with the help of the power given to him by Xia Xuan.

First, increase the citizen welfare that has not changed for many years. The first is the health insurance system, which abolished the so-called Medicare-only medicines of the previous parliament. Implement the system that the state bears part of the medical expenses, and the state will bear 30% of the medical expenses of ordinary citizens. The fee for the disabled will be raised to varying degrees, 50%, 70%, and 80%.

The second is the education system. The salaries of teachers in public schools are no longer paid by local governments, but by the central government. At the same time, teachers' salaries and benefits will be raised.

A three-year rotation system for primary and secondary school teachers has been formulated. The term of office of teachers in public schools will be limited to three years and school leaders will be limited to four years. When the time comes, I will be transferred to another public school in my area to serve. Take turns to change, prevent some people from collusion with each other, and ensure the purity of the school.

We have increased funds in cities and towns where education resources are relatively lacking, and narrowed the distance between urban education and urban education as much as possible.

These two systems alone require an extremely large amount of money, but now the Eastern Xia Empire, which holds two world resources, doesn't care about this amount of money at all. It is simply that the resource development system of the Goblin Slayer world has been initially established, and tens of millions of tons of various mineral resources are shipped back to the country every day.

In the future, with the continuous improvement of the resource development system, it will continue to rise.

Subsequently, the government promulgated a series of bills, most of which were about people's livelihood issues, and were centered on improving citizens' welfare. While the increase was mostly modest, it also made citizens very happy.

And then, the social welfare system promulgated by the government instantly attracted a lot of scolding.

[Social public support system]: All citizens will no longer enjoy the education of children over 6 years old, and the state will be solely responsible for the education of all citizens in elementary, junior high school, high school, and university. Parents are obliged to send their children to public schools, not for so-called Western tailored education.

At the same time, in the event of child abuse, the government has the right to deprive parents of their parental custody and sentence them to imprisonment for up to five years. This was followed by a series of laws to protect children's rights.

The problem of children is no longer a personal family matter, but a social matter. The state has the responsibility and the right to supervise whether parents have fulfilled their responsibilities as parents.

Everyone will not be able to abuse children for reasons such as [This is my family business] [I am educating my children].

To put it simply, it means raising the issue of children to the criminal law. Any child abuse issue, even if it is one's own, will be sentenced.

In fact, this social nurturing system already exists, and that is the Royal Nurturing Institution Law. However, the Royal Nurturing Institutions Act is a civil law, and it is also subordinate to the Juvenile Protection Act.

Now it has directly jumped out of the Minor Protection Law and has become an independent criminal law system with a strong legal effect.

This system has greatly weakened parents' ownership of their children, making parents who have always felt that their children are theirs and their possessions, feel that their children have been taken away. That's why there is a lot of scolding.

In the days after the law was promulgated, almost the entire network of the Eastern Xia Empire was scolding the new government. But the government doesn't care, because most of the time the public opinion on the Internet that looks lively is actually just the dissatisfaction of a small number of people.

The Internet of the Dongxia Empire is completely real-name system. The government is very clear about how many people are dissatisfied with this bill.

……

Xia Xuan flipped through all kinds of information and couldn't help but admire: "Li Zhiguo seems to be ready."

Although the government does not care about comments on the Internet, the person in charge of the social welfare system also stood up to answer the questions on the Internet.

[Recently, the Internet has been full of criticism of the system of social public education. Here I will give an explanation to all citizens]

[This is a table of various issues related to children in the past 30 years. In the past 30 years, 10,000 children have been sent to the Royal Elite Nurturing Institution because of their parents' pursuit of so-called happiness and being themselves. 】

[Because of an unintended pregnancy, the parents did not want to raise them, and more than 20,000 children were sent to the Royal Elite Nurturing Institution. There were 682 cases of child custody being deprived of parental abuse. 】

[In today's era of hedonism, some of the younger generation pursue a happy life and pursue being their truest self. The Qixi Festival, which originally symbolized sincere love, has become the so-called contraceptive day! 】

[Daxia is indeed what it says on the Internet, a society made up of thousands of small families linked by family affection. Family affection is indeed very important for children, but from the data of these years, it is clear that family affection cannot restrain the behavior of some people. Since family love cannot restrain them, then the law is used to restrain them as usual. 】

[In my opinion, a cold and severe law is more humane and more protective to children than those wise men who come out of their mouths. Family love is indeed a powerful guarantee for the healthy growth of children, but for some children, the Royal Elite Nurturing Institution can help them grow up healthily. If someone can come up with a better solution to this problem, the government will immediately abolish the social welfare system. 】

[Please don't treat children as your possessions, they are not objects. They are the hope of the empire, and the state has the right to guarantee them]

[Parents still maintain the custody of their children, but Daxia always pays attention to the parallel between power and responsibilities. Now that you have power, take on the responsibilities of parents. 】

After losing the deliberate rhythm of some people, coupled with the detailed analysis of the bill by the official media, everyone finally understood the original intention of the bill. The trend of public opinion on the Internet gradually turned to the government, and everyone seemed to have forgotten the overwhelming scolding before the government.

This is the Internet, everyone is advocating independent thinking, and everyone feels that their thoughts are free. However, most people's attitude towards things has been controlled by the media, and the media's reporting angle on a thing directly affects people's attitude towards things.

Sometimes a piece of information is originally positive, but as long as the angle of reporting is adjusted, people's attitudes towards these things will be reversed 180 degrees People enjoy the convenience brought by technology, and the Internet has given Unparalleled access to resources for people.

The speed at which our resources are acquired is unparalleled, and the part of our ignorance is infinitely magnified. We know everything, we know nothing.

……

Since the last time the trend of sexual liberty became popular, a strange phenomenon has occurred. Originally, sociologists predicted that with the development of the times, the number of orphans received by the Royal Elite Nurturing Institution would continue to decline every year. However, in the past few decades, the Royal Breeding Institution has experienced a reverse growth, and the number of people has risen from 100 to several thousand a year.

And nearly 70% of the children who were sent in had their parents still alive, and they were sent in for a variety of reasons. Among them, their parents do not want to raise them, accounting for the majority.

About 10,000 children are sent to the Royal Elite Nurturing Institution every year, which seems like a lot. But these 10,000 children are the total of the Eastern Xia Empire and the Southern Xia Democratic Republic. With a population of 2.1 billion, these 10,000 orphans are not many.

The main reason for these phenomena is hedonism, especially those poisonous chicken soups that have prevailed on the Internet in recent years. There are even some people who have been sought after by a large number of young people with a set of instant music theory.

At the same time, under the propaganda of some capital, you should enjoy life when you are young, otherwise you will not be able to experience the happiness that young people can enjoy when you are old. This theory, coupled with various overdraft consumerism, has made a large number of young people the golden leek in the eyes of capital.

Even in the back, Kanu and the Moonlight Clan were all glorified into so-called dashingism, and they knew how to love themselves.
