Have you ever imagined a person who toils all day only to end up with a sky-high fine, or a large corporation that makes a mistake and can easily escape liability and return only a portion of the unjust enrichment? In this seemingly fair society, there are always some incredible injustices at play?
An honest old farmer made a profit of 14 yuan from reselling celery, and just when he thought he could support his family with this meager income, a fine of 100,000 yuan fell on his head like a bolt from the blue. Yes, you heard it right, it was because of the celery worth 14 yuan that he was fined 100,000 yuan.
At the same time, another piece of news is jaw-dropping. Residents of Chongqing's gas company have reported that gas bills have risen due to the replacement of gas meters. After inspection, there was indeed an overcharge of the residents' gas bills, and the result of this matter was only a refund of the residents' "mistaken" gas bills! As if nothing had happened.
This makes us wonder: what is fairness in this society, and why is it that the same mistake is that the old farmers have to bear such a huge price, while the gas company can gently expose it?
We often say that "everyone is equal before the law", but this is often not the case. In the face of forces with deep backgrounds, the executors of some systems will choose to compromise and retreat, turning big things into small things and small things into small things. However, when faced with the powerless and powerless people at the bottom, they will ruthlessly enforce the so-called "justice", and even double their suppression, as if only in this way can their integrity be revealed.
This kind of discrimination is more sinister than any form of corruption. Because it is not only a harm to the individual, but also a violation of the fairness and justice of the whole society. It makes the weak more helpless and the strong more unscrupulous.
"Only the governor is allowed to set fires, and the people are not allowed to light lamps. This old saying still seems ironic today. In this society, some people always seem to be able to be above the law, while others always fall victim to the system. Like those "leeks" who are left to the slaughter, they seem so helpless and small in this society.
We can't help but ask: what is wrong with this society? Why is it that there are always people who can escape the law, while others have to pay a huge price for trivial mistakes? Is this what we call fairness?
No, it's not fairness! Fairness shouldn't just be lip service, it should be embodied in everyone's life. Whether you are strong or weak, whether you are powerful or powerless, you should be treated equally before the law.
However, the reality is always disappointing. In this society, the law of the jungle of "the law of the jungle" always seems to be invisibly amplified. The strong get stronger and the weak get weaker, is this the social phenomenon we want to see?
We cannot tolerate the continuation of such a social phenomenon. We want to call for fairness and justice, so that everyone can be treated equally before the law. Whether you are an old farmer or an entrepreneur, whether you are a disadvantaged group or a powerful class, you should be treated equally before the law.
In closing, I want to say this: the world needs more fairness and justice. We cannot allow the weak to remain in a position of exploitation and oppression in this society forever. We need to stand up and speak up for them and fight for their rights and dignity. Only in this way can our society become better and more harmonious.
So, as a reader, what do you think about this? How do you think this society should change to be more fair and just? Let's explore and think about this issue together! Because only when each of us is aware of this problem and is willing to work hard for it, can our society truly become better and fairer.
