最近, 美國最富有的 25 個縣排名出爐. 從其中不難看到美國政治的腐敗. 其第 1,2,3,6,9,10,12,13,14,21,23名 竟然都是圍繞著首都WASHINGTON DC. 第16名也不遠. 也就是說, 有近一半的所謂最富有的縣是靠吃納稅人的錢財的碩鼠.
加州的矽穀 所在的 SANTA CLARA COUNTY 一直到今天仍然是人們, 特別是老中們津津樂道的樂土. 這裏有著GOOGLE, APPLE, YAHOO.... 等等如雷灌耳的著名的高科技企業, 居住著眾多的身懷絕技的工程師,科學家. 有著大量的靠自己的奮鬥成功的故事. GUESS WHAT? 這個縣隻是名列區區第19名而已.
這難道不值得我們思考嗎?
