I have always liked a show on Phoenix Satellite TV, in the world. Here you can see all the living beings.
There are no cold economic data here, but the real life of the general public is vividly reflected.
Recently, I saw an interview with Mr. Wang, a migrant worker who has been working in the city for 33 years.
380 yuan! This is the amount paid for the rural NCMS medical insurance. It is also the income of many people for a day or even just half a day or even maybe 1 hour. Or many people may have a meal, or even just the money for afternoon tea.
Mr. Wang told reporters that he has been working in the city for 33 years, and he is 49 years old this year, which is equivalent to working in the city at the age of 16. In the early days, it was relatively stable on the construction site. However, in recent years, there has been less and less work on the construction site, and many migrant workers have been forced to leave the construction site.
Then there is some handy work that carries buildings and garbage. Sometimes it's more than 100 a day, sometimes it's more than 200, anyway, I don't pick anything, I can do anything.
Mr. Wang said that he did not receive a job last month and then did not earn any money. The village is still urging him to pay 380 yuan for medical insurance.
As soon as the van came over, everyone worked hard to drill in the car
But I really don't have any money, and the village cadres are still urging in the group.
Mr. Wang was still laughing at himself during the filming, this is a mess of mine, there is no need to shoot.
He also said that he was actually a begger for food.
Because there are many people and there is little work, in order to grab work, many migrant workers even often clash and fight. It's all about living, and behind everyone is a few people waiting to eat.
Migrant workers distribution center in Hefei. Hundreds of people gather here every day, waiting to be picked. Being picked away means having work to do and money to earn.
Migrant workers often clash over the power of the city
But in fact, many people here are generally older. Many people over the age of 55 do not want the construction site. Because the national policy is that construction sites cannot recruit workers over the age of 55. So they're basically just going to do some odd jobs. If you want to work on the construction site, you need someone to cooperate with them to get in.
But in fact, it is not necessarily a good thing to be on the construction site now. Because now the general contractor or subcontractor of the project will be in arrears of wages. Some workers can even be owed a year or two in wages.
Even many state-owned enterprises and central enterprises owe wages to migrant workers.
For example, the recent uproar about the 1.4 million wages owed to migrant workers by the China Construction Second Bureau was only fined 2,000 yuan in the end. Yes, you heard it right, it's a fine of 2,000 yuan, not 20 million.
For this kind of central enterprise scoundrel, migrant workers are in an absolutely vulnerable group.
It was rumored that many people in rural areas in many places chose to cut off the payment of 380 yuan for the New Rural Cooperative Medical Insurance, and were even threatened by village cadres.
At that time, there were still many netizens who couldn't understand it, thinking that medical insurance was beneficial and harmless for both the country and individuals, so why should they stop paying. Some people even ridiculed the peasants for not even being willing to pay 380 yuan, which is simply a mouse's eye.
Is there a possibility that they really can't afford to pay it? Just like Mr. Wang, who has been working in the city for 33 years, he has not received a job for just a month, and he can't even pay 380 yuan.
The greatest evil of human nature is to speculate on others from our own standpoint. What you think is just what you think. Reality is often more brutal than the plot in the movie.
Some people have exhausted their best efforts by earning a few thousand dollars a year.
Someone might be able to earn thousands of dollars a minute.
There are children in mountainous areas who have never worn new clothes in their entire lives, while people in wealthy families have to go to the supermarket every month or even every week to buy new clothes as it is to eat.
Someone who never gets a chance to eat a McDonald's meal in their lifetime and you avoid it as junk food.
Some people spend countless days and nights trying to raise money for their children's college education.
And some people, just one trip is enough for many college students to pay for a year's tuition and living expenses.
Someone used to ask the wise what is really fair?
The wise man replied that there can be no true fairness in the world. Some say it's life and death. But in reality, this is not fair, because the rich have more choices about life and death. For example, if they are seriously ill, they can choose to heal and continue to live, but for many people, you can only wait for death.
The greatest fairness is actually to give the most difficult group of people a fair chance, and this is not about distribution. It's about having a chance to get ahead. If they are given a fair chance and then they can't get up, then give them the most basic security of life. That's fairness.
If one day you feel like you can't survive, then you go to the hospital at 12 o'clock and the labor market at 5 o'clock in the morning. Some people do their best to live for one more second, and some people do all kinds of dirty work to make money.
Therefore, the next time you hear that someone has cut off the payment of medical insurance, don't choose to laugh at it, people really can't afford to pay it.
