不需要 中国那种乱七八糟 乌烟瘴气的 文明
按德国的城市规划就可以了!!
如果 美国 按德国的城市规划
所有的城市都盖成整整齐齐的楼房,
各行各业制定好工资标准, 不准许资本家乱七八糟的胡花工资
把美国 建成一个整整齐齐, 没有犯罪, 没有贫富差距的北欧社会
美国 能超越 中国 1000 倍以上
美国社会 主要是太过于太过于自由资本主义了,
类似 英国的 19 世纪 .
英国 就是太过于 自由资本主义, 城市盖的乱七八糟, 乌烟瘴气, 贫富差距巨大.
结果 被 德国 在 19 世纪 很快超越!!
德国 虽然发展的比 英国玩的多的多, 但是德国人不喜欢太过于自由资本主义,
德国人喜欢整整齐齐的城市规划 , 合作住房 和 社会福利,
结果 德国很快就在 19 世纪 超越了英国
