Laundry is a very common thing in our lives. For most people, it is enough to put dirty laundry in the washing machine, add laundry detergent, and press the switch. However, sometimes it's not that simple. I once saw a report that made me wonder why in some places, even laundry has become illegal
It turns out that this problem of illegal laundry is not an isolated phenomenon, it has happened many times across the country. That's when I started to find out. I've found that the problem of laundry by the river has indeed become a strict violation. According to the provisions of the Water Law, it is forbidden to wash, wash, soak or discharge pollutants in rivers, lakes, reservoirs and other waters. Although this regulation may appear to be for environmental considerations on the surface, it is worth thinking deeply about whether it is reasonable or not.
First of all, some of the rivers are not used as drinking water sources, so people's laundry behavior does not pose a threat to drinking water safety. Throughout the ages, people have been washing clothes by the river, but they have not heard of itenvironmentPollution was caused. So, is it too harsh to suddenly see it as illegal now?Secondly,environmentThe pollution is not caused by the laundry behavior of ordinary people, but by the progress of modern technology and the discharge of industrial waste in the process of urbanization. If there is to be accountability, then the focus should be on the destructionenvironmentof the source.
However, it's not just laundry, which is a normal activity in traditional Xi, that has become the focus of law enforcement, and even walking is no longer possible. The recent "fines for crossing the street and looking at mobile phones" legislation has attracted widespread attention across the country. Under this provision, pedestrians who look down at their phones while crossing the street face a fine of up to $200. While this rule is intended for safety reasons, do we need to reflect on why people crossing the street at a green light are also caught up in safety hazards?Could it be becauseCity roadsThe layout is unreasonable, or the pedestrians are rightTransportationNon-compliance with the rules
Thinking about these questions, I suddenly noticed a phenomenon that came quietly - the fine for not folding the quilt. Recently, a standard in Puge County, Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, which lists "no folding quilts" as the subject of fines, caused an uproar on the Internet. The book, titled "NewRuralBeautiful countrysideAction HabitatenvironmentFines standard" document, which stipulates living with residentsenvironmentRelevant fines include a fine of 10 yuan for not folding quilts, a fine of 10 yuan for not washing dishes and chopsticks, and a fine of 20 yuan for squatting on the ground. Such a provision has sparked widespread controversy and questioning.
The reason for the controversy over this fine standard is that it is clearly not in line with our common senseSocialFairness and justice. RuralMost of the residents in the area have just been lifted out of poverty, and their family conditions are basically at the low- and middle-income level. If the amount of the fine is more than they can afford, it is not pushing them backPoverty lineIs it?RuralBeautiful countrysideThe construction isSocialrather than abusing administrative means to impose more fees on residents.
In the face of these unbelievable fines, we can't help but ask, what exactly is reasonable?What is irrational?In my opinion, reasonableness and irrationality need to be basedSocialDevelopment and the changes of the times are constantly redefined. First of all, for problems like illegal laundry, we should judge whether it is reasonable from science and reality. If the behavior of the common people washing is not rightenvironmentCausing substantial pollution should not be classified as an illegal act, let alone fined. Instead, it should be discharged on those industrial wastewatersenvironmentVandalism is more severely cracked down on and punished.
Secondly, we should think more from a human perspective on the issue of fines for walking to look at mobile phones and not folding quilts. If looking at your phone while crossing the street is a real safety hazard, then people should be guided and encouraged to be alert in public places. However, fines alone will not solve the problem, and we should pay more attention to education and awareness-raising to make people aware of safety issues and consciously complyTransportationRules.
The issue of fines for not folding quilts should be considered more carefully. A fine is not just an individual act, but an infringement on a person's property and dignity. When formulating the standard of fines, it should be formulated in light of the actual situation of local economic construction and the actual situation of residents. Poor families and ordinary residents should not be overburdened by minor irregularities. In the whole issue, we need to revisitLawsdevelopment and implementation. LawsThe purpose is to maintainSocialOrder and justice, not simply punishing individuals. In the formulationLawsAnd the rules should be taken into accountSocialThe public interest and the rights and interests of citizens should be reasonably balanced.
We should always be thinking and questioning the problem. Not only when facing practical problems such as illegal laundry, walking and looking at mobile phones, and not folding quilts, but also in the broader worldSocialissues and policies. Only by constantly thinking, discussing and reflecting can we find more reasonable and just solutionsSocialcontribute their wisdom and strength to the progress and development.
