Stop Natasha Romanoff At The Start!

The cycle will continue, the population will soon explode again, and the tragedy will repeat itself.

Under simple calculations,

If Thanos kills half of the living, how long will it take for the population to recover?

Ou Huang remembers a post in a past life that was dedicated to calculating this.

According to the Malthusian population model,

When the base population is PO, the population growth rate is r, and the time is t, the population after growth is assumed to be 3.1574x101 intelligent beings in the universe according to Drake's formula (since it is known that 2*P=P(t)[, this number does not affect the calculation result) The population growth rate is calculated according to the global average population growth rate of 1.178%.

so

Even without accounting for policies to encourage fertility in various countries after the population halved, the population could return to its current level in less than 60 years.

I wonder if Thanos has any disciples who can inherit the mantle and destroy half of them in 60 years?

But

Demographics are not a simple mathematical problem.

The sudden reduction of half the population in a short period of time will inevitably have a profound impact on the social economy.

fortunately

Humans have really experienced similar events.

Between 1347 and 1351, the Black Death killed about 40% of the population in Europe, and in some areas even decreased by 80%.

This is similar to Thanos' plan: to cause widespread population loss in the short term, without consuming as many resources as war.

As a result,

Capital and land remain unchanged, but the supply of labor is greatly reduced.

Workers' wages skyrocketed, interest on loans fell, and people's living standards rose considerably.

The improvement of this type of living standards,

Although it has recovered as the population has re-grown, its impact has been far-reaching.

The cost of hiring workers is too high for capitalists, and they prefer new technologies to save labor.

The cost of hiring sharecroppers was too high, so they tried to raise sheep instead of farming, which stimulated the development of the textile industry.

thereupon

From the textile machine to the industrial revolution, machines are replacing labor, capital is entering the technology industry in large quantities, and the ensuing technological progress has helped mankind get out of the Malthusian trap for the first time.

And so is the turning point,

The feudal history of the Middle Ages ended, and mankind entered the modern era little by little.

And our generation of only children has once again witnessed the economic take-off.

But

This take-off is even faster, because when labor prices rise, we can learn foreign technology directly, even saving a lot of scientific research steps.

So

If moral factors are not taken into account, then the indiscriminate decline in the population is not necessarily a bad thing in the long run.

Wages will rise and the power of capital will be weakened.

few

Prices can finally come down.

As for Thanos, who owns the Infinity Gauntlet, why did he choose to kill half of the people or simply build a perpetual motion machine?

That definitely is for.........

Box office!

Look,

In the end, capitalism harmed the universe........

In this leisurely day,

Finally, the day the battle begins!

S.H.I.E.L.D Secret Base, Joint Institute for Energy Weapons.

At the moment, the alarm sound is playing on a loop.

"Attention to all personnel.~!"

"Evacuation instructions confirmed!"

"Please abandon all tasks immediately and evacuate nearby!"

"Attention to all personnel!"

"Evacuation instructions confirmed!"

"Please abandon all tasks immediately and evacuate nearby!"

On the rooftop,

Fury's helicopter flew over the base, only to see a large area of people evacuating like ants moving.

Before the helicopter stopped,

He just couldn't wait to jump out of the helicopter, and Phil Coulson and Hill had been waiting for a long time.

"What the hell is going on?" Fury asked.

"The problem is, we don't know." Phil Coulson said helplessly.

"I didn't give Erik permission for testing, why did the accident happen? Is Wakanda's new scientist?" Fury guessed.

"None of them are testing, or even in the lab at all, which is a spontaneous act of the Rubik's Cube." Hill said.

"." Rubik's Cube starts on its own? Now what about its energy level?. ”

"It was still rising, Dr. Erik couldn't control it, Wakanda's experts could limit it a little, but they couldn't change the results, so we ordered an evacuation."

Or Hill Road.

"How long will it take to evacuate all?"

"All withdraw from the base, it will take about half an hour." Phil Coulson, who was responsible for the evacuation, said.

"Hurry up and keep everyone safe!"

"Yes!"

Phil Coulson nodded and turned to get busy, the next project was not his touch.

"Director, evacuating the crowd is afraid that it will be futile." Hill said.

"Then let them sit here and wait?" Fury asked rhetorically.

"If we can't control the energy of Tesseract, we can't hide from Cape Tianya, it.......

"Hill, you've been too close to Ou Huang lately, have you forgotten your identity?" Fury interrupted, "You may be the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. in the future."

But at least not yet!"

Hill stared at Fury with a slight frown, not understanding why he reacted so much.

She's just talking about things.

But Fury didn't explain.

"I need you to make sure that all Phase 3 prototypes are safely evacuated, got it?" Fury emphasized.

"Is this the most important thing now?" Hill was puzzled.

"Until the moment the earth is destroyed, we all have to do our jobs." Fury said calmly: "Withdraw all the technical departments, all the equipment of the third phase research will be loaded and transported, and don't tell Ou Huang about this matter!"

Dan W

Hill also turned around and went busy.
