The passing line of the middle class is released There are only 33 million standard households in the country
As if it happened yesterday, the middle class is like a ray of light, gently and warmly shining on the whole country. However, when I saw the subject, a feeling of doubt suddenly churned in my heart. What kind of people are they?China has only 33 million residents, so why are there four categories of households that meet the criteria?It's a question that makes me think deeply, and it's a fascinating subject that I want you to join me in.
We have to figure out what the middle class is. In contemporary times, the "middle class" is generally regarded as "the rich" who are "neither rich nor poor" or "not poor". The middle-income class has a certain level of financial resources to meet their daily needs and enjoy certain additional benefits. But what exactly does "certain" economic power mean here?According to a recent survey, only 33 million households in China are middle-income households. This data is really amazing, you must know that there are billions of human beings living in the land of China. Why is the middle class so scarce, just a fraction of the country?Perhaps it is necessary to dissect the level of the middle class.
Survey data show that only four categories of people meet the criteria for the middle-income bracket. It sounds like a mixed blessing. The first type is a dual-income family with a fixed job and a medium wage level, each of whom is engaged in different jobs, supports each other, and lives in harmony. The second class is a high-wage single person whose economic ** is a doctor, lawyer, company executive, etc. The third type is wealthy real estate families, who have more than one property, and often make good profits through bank loans. The fourth type is a family-based family business that has its own business and is running very well and has considerable profits.
These four types of families are the majority of the modern middle class. However, it is important to know that there are more than just four people who meet the criteria of the middle class. We cannot limit the "middle class" to the above four categories, and the "middle class" should be a pluralistic concept. While economic growth is needed, it is also necessary to integrate multiple dimensions such as education, career development and social status. From this point of view, the middle class is large, but it also faces greater challenges. Think about it again, why is the middle class so small?An important factor contributing to this phenomenon is the uneven development of the hukou system and the region. China's hukou management has had a significant impact on the lives of migrant workers and their children in cities and towns, as well as on their social security. As an agricultural population with a large working population, there is a certain distance between its status in social life and the "middle class", resulting in the continuous decline of the number of "middle class". In addition, the different levels of regional development are also an important reason for the small number of middle classes. In some places, there is an underdevelopment, there is a lack of infrastructure, and the people's living standards are relatively low, and it is still very difficult to become a middle class.
Although the middle class is small, we should not only focus on their shortcomings, but also have expectations for the future. Along with the rapid economic development of our country, the living standards of the people have also been improved. More people have been lifted out of poverty, found better jobs, and have more money. In the future, we will see more and more middle class, more and more people stepping on the threshold and enjoying the well-being of the middle class. Overall, the criterion for reaching the middle-income level is very staggering, as there are 33 million households in the whole of China, of which only 4 categories meet this criterion. But at the same time, it's also something to think about. What is the middle class in China?Will there be more middle class in the future?This question can only be answered by time, I am afraid. Let's look forward to the growth of the middle-income class and fight for it.
