Honestly, I didn't feel that the Chinese government was doing a good job before. If it hadn't been for this outbreak, I would have agreed that no government deserves praise. But in the face of the new crown epidemic, I no longer agree with this view, but oppose it. That is, I think a good government should be praised. Undoubtedly, I think the present Chinese Government is a good government. On what grounds do I say that the Chinese Government is a good government? As the saying goes, one does not know what is good or bad without comparison. Not to mention others, and the world's number one power across the ocean, the United States, can be compared.
The U.S. has the world's largest number of confirmed cases and deaths of new coronary pneumonia, and the numbers are huge, leaving other countries several blocks behind. As of May 2, the U.S. accumulated more than 1.13 million confirmed cases, accounting for about one-third of the world; accumulated deaths of more than 65,000, more than a quarter of the world. Is it scary to have such a huge number of sick people and deaths in the United States? In the view of the rich people in the United States, it is not scary at all, because most of those who are sick and die are poor people. Those with money and status get priority for testing and treatment. For the world, it is America first; for the United States domestically, it is the rich who are given priority and the white people. This is American logic. Where is the equality that Westerners believe in and boast about? Trump has said that the rich and famous are prioritized, and that happens all the time, so maybe that's life. At least this is the president of a country, what he said is really a bit disappointing to hear. Zhang Zai, a philosopher of the Northern Song Dynasty in China, said this: "To establish a heart for heaven and earth, to establish a life for the people, to carry on the great learning for the saints of the past, and to open up peace for the ages." This is actually a clear expression of the idea of helping the world and saving the people in traditional Chinese culture. President Trump's remarks, on the other hand, are a concrete manifestation of the supremacy of American interests and ego. That's why the slogan "America First" was put forward. That's why I think President Trump's state of mind is not up to par with that of a philosopher in our feudal era.
"America First" is in line with the selfishness of human nature, so it has been welcomed and supported by many people. Human nature is complex, and there is both a kind and altruistic side and a vicious and self-interested side in human nature. The slogan of "America First" and the indifferent argument of "Maybe this is life" undoubtedly promote the vicious and self-interested side of human nature and eliminate the good and altruistic side of human nature. The human nature of goodness needs to be guided, but the Trumps in the United States are guiding the human nature to evil.
Or back to the U.S. epidemic control. Americans are not stupid, we Chinese know the seriousness of the new crown pneumonia, Americans do not know? Then how to explain the U.S. to become the most serious outbreak of the country? I am afraid that no one in the world would believe that the medical condition of the United States is not good. Saying that China has delayed the prevention and control of the epidemic in the United States, you, the United States, is a sovereign state, you have known about the outbreak of the epidemic in us for a long time, and we have also spoken to you a long time ago, have we tied your hands and feet? You should remember that it was all of us Chinese who used the shutdown to block the spread of the virus, on the contrary, how do you Americans do it?
The Trumps in the US are not afraid of spreading the virus. The US has the most advanced medical technology and the most advanced medical equipment to deal with the new coronary pneumonia, which doesn't have a high lethality rate, or to deal with it with relative ease, and the rich are prioritized anyway. As for the large number of poor people who do not get tested and treated, this is a life situation that "happens all the time". It is also important to note that the elderly and those with underlying medical conditions are the ones who suffer most from this epidemic. The deaths of the elderly and the chronically ill lighten the burden on society, and this is something that many of the capitalist barons in the United States would love to see. When I saw the shameless performance of those American politicians, I was secretly thankful that I was born in a Chinese family and that the country spared no effort to collect all the money that should be collected and treat all the diseases that should be treated, and that it was completely free of charge. My elderly father has severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and our family is financially strained, if it were in the United States, not to mention, my elderly father would be in danger.
That's why I say that America is a paradise for the rich and a hell for the poor. The U.S. grips the world's wool, controls the world's energy pattern, and manipulates the redistribution of world interests, which no one knows. That's why America is the richest. The United States practises private ownership, and the huge wealth of the United States is in the hands of a small number of people who hold the state power of the United States. These people are not corrupt, because almost all the resources and wealth, already clearly belong to them.
The people are not guilty of the crime. Today, China is being chastised by the United States in partnership with others, not because it has done anything wrong, but because it has done too well. China's leaders have their people in mind and put the lives and health of the people first, which highlights the fact that the rich and the powerful in the United States ignore the lives of the poor and the infirm and the sick and the handicapped, so they will hate us. The more they hate us and accuse us, the better we are doing.
Let their accusations come more fiercely, so that we will more truly see their ugly soul, but also let us more clearly understand themselves, better towards a better tomorrow.
