The corruption of the years is more challenging!
In the sixties and seventies, the social climate was not as pure as is generally believed, and the political situation was not as stable as the legend suggests. Some people often cite corruption as an example to illustrate the current social problems, and even put forward the argument that "there was no corruption in the sixties and seventies." This argument does not conform to the reality of the time or the reality of the present.
Corruption is a social phenomenon that has never disappeared from ancient times to the present, from the middle to the outside, but it is sometimes good and sometimes bad. For example, Zhu Yuanzhang was a beggar and was hurt by corrupt elements many times, so after becoming emperor, he imposed heavy punishments on corruption, but he still could not completely solve the problem of corruption.
The reason why people mention the sixties and seventies separately is because it was a special historical period, that is, this period brought great losses and disasters to the country and the people.
In this context, even if the era is good, it will not be so good. Overall, the corruption of that era was open and extremely challenging. At that time, corrupt elements dared to openly allocate quotas at meetings, and even used the "four ones" (one **, one slip, one banquet, and one cigarette) to deal with matters involving the lives of the masses and their families.
The level of corruption was probably even higher back then than it is now. The corrupt elements of today may not even dare to fight **, but the people at that time had no scruples.
In the past, some people chose to challenge social norms, public order and good customs, and laws and regulations, and did some disturbing behavior. Taking our production brigade as an example, according to the regulations, members are not allowed to build houses near the highway to avoid affecting the overall planning of the village and the driving of vehicles.
However, there was a member who insisted on building a house in that place, and despite the opposition of the production team and the members, he even went to his uncle, who was an official in the county, and asked him to clear the matter in front of the leaders of the commune and the brigade.
Eventually, the member succeeded in building a house in that place. Another example is when a partner passed the medical examination for military service, but was suddenly disqualified from joining the army because there was a child of a leader who also wanted to join the army.
Despite his best efforts, he was eventually knocked down. I remember that when our troops were ready to leave, he was still trying his best to board the bus with us to join the army, but was eventually pulled out of the car by the people of the Ministry of Armed Forces.
At that time, corruption was everywhere and permeated every corner of people's lives. Even such a trivial matter as the production team's choice of the car boss is corrupt.
When my father was the production team leader, there were eight big trucks on the team, and one of the handlebars died suddenly, and he needed to find a replacement. There were several handlebar styles in the team, and my father planned to use one of them, but the captain of the production team came to the door and insisted that he be replaced by a relative who couldn't beat him.
The captain said that he would not catch the car, but his father would. If his father disagreed, he made the man the squad leader. In desperation, my father had to compromise. As a result, the man had no experience and drove the car over in less than three days, almost being crushed to death by the car.
After that, he offered not to catch the car. At that time, which of the "eight members" of the production team, such as custodians, breeders, and communicators, had no background and access?
Why are you such a rabbit cub, they are your uncle, can't you help? "In the end, I learned that this old man was the secretary's father.
This incident is only one of the many corrupt phenomena of that era, and does not represent the historical period of 30 years after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
