The statement that "those who pay public grain are still farming, and those who eat public grain have long retired and received pensions" is not accurate, and should not be regarded as sad in today's society.
Traditionally, farmers are often misunderstood and ignored as a vulnerable group in social development, and their welfare and living standards are often marginalized. However, modern society is improving the living conditions of peasants with unprecedented efforts to build a more just and equal society.
In the past, it was true that the living conditions of the peasants were relatively difficult. They do heavy agricultural work, but their income is often not enough to make ends meet. The inadequacy of the social security system makes them even more helpless in the face of illness and ageing, which clearly cannot be solved by simple rhetoric.
However, with the progress of the times and the adjustment of policies, the welfare and social status of farmers are undergoing positive changes. The establishment of a modern social security system, such as the popularization of medical insurance and pension insurance, has greatly enhanced the peasants' confidence and sense of security in the future. Infrastructure construction in rural areas is also developing rapidly, which not only improves the quality of life of farmers, but also promotes rural economic growth and social stability.
Government support policies for agriculture have also been gradually strengthened. The implementation of subsidy policies and the in-depth promotion of science and technology have made agricultural production more efficient and sustainable. Farmers are no longer simply "farmers", but important participants and beneficiaries of modern agricultural development.
Through the application of new technologies, they have improved the quality and yield of agricultural products, increased their sources of income, and created better living conditions for their families and communities.
However, the issue of social welfare and equity does not happen overnight. We need to realize that improving the welfare of farmers is a long-term process that requires the joint efforts of the government, all sectors of society and every citizen. Only through the participation and support of the whole society can we truly achieve the all-round development of peasants and the overall progress of society.
We face many challenges and opportunities in the future. The problem of uneven development in rural areas still exists, and farmers in some remote areas still face problems such as insufficient infrastructure and information asymmetry.
With the advancement of science and technology and the impact of globalization, the structure of agriculture and employment patterns are also undergoing profound changes. We need smarter and more flexible policy measures to address these challenges and ensure that every farmer can share in the fruits of social development.
Therefore, the improvement of peasant welfare is not only a moral issue, but also the key to social progress and stability. We should meet this challenge with a positive attitude and work together to promote the progress of social fairness and harmony.
Only with such joint efforts can we build a truly beautiful society, so that every peasant can obtain the dignity and happiness he deserves in the tide of social development.
