【澄清唬爆米花教室:被大內宣淹沒的美國總統署名投書】
先說這篇沒有圖,因為太重要不能亂放圖
在歷史上,從沒有美國總統親自投書到中華民國的報紙。但是在109年10月22日,美國總統參選人拜登以「More Prosperous Future For Our Families」(定稿中文標題:為我們家庭更繁榮的未來),以華人為主體,台灣人為核心訴求,投書聯合報系的世界日報,強調他願意與中國合作而非對抗,鄙棄川普的仇中獵巫,願意與華人聯手,但更重視台灣人的健保經驗,不願台灣人為美國火中取栗而是共同繁榮。
但在一片大奇特的大內宣中,美國總統參選人的投書竟然在台灣地區被忽視。且不說拜登明明在聲譽卓著的 IBD/TIPP民調持續領先,比起川普根本鼓吹台灣人火中取栗(你對抗,我賺軍火,去跟大陸人死嗑來增加我談判勒索本錢)。
拜登不只親自署名投書,還誠懇說明他對台灣/兩岸的四大重點,根本是史上最誠懇與重要的待遇。既然親綠親川普主流媒體不報,那福編來報。
★
一、拜登堅持稱台灣是 leading democracy (領導性的民主政體),表示其無意支持台獨立場(不稱國家)
二、拜登大篇幅強調川普仇中、卸責不科學的推卸問題給中國,造成亞裔的困擾與災難,而這不是美國總統應為。(打了那些整天喊支那賤畜以為自己就會成為高等美國人的台灣地區背祖中國人的臉)
三、拜登大談健保對一般百姓重要性,表示他珍視台灣的健保經驗,也是未來與台灣的合作重心。
四、與其獵巫與仇中,他更重視與中國的合作,希望聯盟對世界更有幫助(雖然舉例醫療與氣候,但也只是舉例) 表示願意以兩大強權的合作,謀取更多世界利益。
其他我 不多說,請看原文與譯文。
#拜登給中華民國台灣與聯合報系的面子真的太大了
#聯合報系真正展現實力
#美國總統投書首中華民國系報紙
#大內宣只在意把我們當馬前卒的喇叭川普
為我們家庭更繁榮的未來/前副總統喬瑟夫.拜登
時局多艱,我們國家處在十字路口,正面臨疾病大流行、經濟大衰退,和一場將決定我們未來很長一段時間的選舉。
今年 我們看到美國最好的一面
今年,我們看到美國最好的一面引領我們向前:英勇的醫師、護士、日常雜貨商、餐館業主、必要行業工作者 — 而其中,包括許許多多的亞裔美國人。
今年 我們也看到美國最糟情況
但我們也看到最糟的情況:亞裔美國人誤因新冠病毒遭仇視的行為比比皆是,某種程度上,是因為川普總統發布的仇恨言論所致。亞裔美國人被責備、被唾罵、被攻擊;家園、商家和汽車被侮辱性標記破壞;年幼的孩童被刺傷,還有一名89歲的奶奶,在不斷升級的仇恨文化中遭人火焚。
這不該是我們原本的樣子。
亞裔美國人 使我們國家變強大
近兩個世紀以來,亞裔美國人使我們的國家變得強大 — 從掘金礦工,到加速我們崛起的鐵路和工廠工人,再到推動我們向前邁進的科學家、建築師、藝術家和企業家們。多年來,他們的勇氣、犧牲和成功,為美國夢注入動力,也讓美國穩為自由的燈塔與世界的希望。
川普卻不懂 傷了移民國價值觀
川普總統不懂這些。他帶頭攻擊我們作為移民之國的價值觀,甚至在我們的邊境,拆散成千上萬的孩童與父母。即便在這場大流行到來之前,我們的仇恨犯罪就已達到16年以來的新高。而如今,為了轉移自己抗疫失敗、未能保護我們國家的過失,無論是否因此導致上千反亞裔的種族歧視事件,他仍堅持把新冠病毒稱作「中國病毒」。
作為總統 我捍衛每人的美國夢
措辭很重要,總統措辭更為重要。作為總統,我將捍衛每個人的美國夢,讓每一勤奮努力的家庭,享有通向繁榮和美好未來的公平機會。我將反對任何形式的種族歧視,指示司法部優先處理仇恨犯罪,以彌合仇恨與分裂的傷口,而非煽風點火。
川普失敗 他讓我們的經濟崩盤
唐納德·川普早在今年1月就已知道新冠病毒的致命性,卻未採取任何行動。現在,超過22萬美國人因此失去生命,約3000萬人失去工作、工時和薪水,五分之一的小商家關門。川普失敗的領導力讓我們的經濟崩盤 — 他總統當得愈久,得以完全回歸正軌的時間也愈久。
我會控制疫情 讓我們重回生機
八個月過去了,川普仍然沒有(抗疫)計畫。而我有。
首先要擔起責任,努力控制疫情,讓我們重回生機。我將執行早在3月就擬定的計畫,擊敗新冠病毒。我將聽取科學家、專家的意見;保護我們的家庭;讓新冠檢測、治療, #以及最終的疫苗免費,並對所有人開放。
我會重建經濟 實質救助小商家
我將馬上開始重建更好的經濟,為數百萬遭受重創的小商家提供實質救助。他們是我們社區的生命線 — 但川普腐敗的復甦作法棄他們於不顧,只把紓困資金匯集到大公司手中。75%的亞裔小企業主,未能獲得任何首輪紓困金。這是錯誤的,我已要求確保員工在50人以下的小企業獲得紓困金,我也將增加他們獲得優惠和資金的長遠渠道,減輕阻礙移民業主的語言障礙。
我不會對年收40萬元以下者加稅
質言之,我的經濟復甦計畫將回報以工作,而不只是財富,將創造未來數百萬優薪工作。(信評機構)穆迪的獨立經濟學者發現,比起川普總統的作法,我的計畫會創造多出700萬的工作,以及超過1兆元的經濟增長。我也不會對任何年收入40萬元以下者加稅 —別懷疑。相反地,我還將確保超級富豪和大公司最終支付本應承擔的份額。
讓父母能付學費 讓醫保更平價
我一路走來,都在為工薪和中產家庭而戰;他們之中有許多勤勉奮鬥的移民,來到美國是為更好的生活。我將幫助父母有能力支付子女的優質教育、提高教師薪酬,並讓絕大多數家庭免費就讀公立學院。我將讓照顧年邁父母變得更容易,讓醫療保險更平價。川普現在要通過法院,廢除「可負擔健保法」,在一場致命大流行之中,剝奪數千萬人的醫療保險,這毫無道理。
與盟友並肩 深化與台灣的關係
同時,新冠病毒證明美國不能自外於世界。從重建我們最親近夥伴的關係開始,我們必須與其他國家攜手合作,應對影響我們所有人的國際挑戰。我們是一個太平洋強國,將與盟友並肩,增進我們在亞太地區共享的繁榮、安全與價值。這其中就包括深化與台灣這個居領先地位的民主政體、主要經濟體,以及科技重鎮的關係。台灣也是開放社會可以有效控制新冠病毒的閃亮典範。
更新領導力 符合美利益與中合作
我們應對中國的方式,會聚焦增強美國競爭力,再興國內優勢,並更新我們在海外的聯盟與領導力。我們將在符合美國利益的領域與中國合作,包括公共衛生和氣候變遷。
讓家庭團聚 修復破碎的移民系統
美國向來不只靠強大的國力,而是用身為榜樣的實力領導世界。要切實重現此景,我們也必須修復破碎的移民系統,讓家庭團聚,確保美國繼續吸引全球最出色與最聰明的人。
我將會傾聽 重塑我們熱愛的國魂
我競選是為讓美國更好的重建,重建美國作為一個充滿機會,團結和有全新開始的國家;一個由數代移民讓其強大的地方;一個所有人都能發聲、每張選票都有價值的地方。我將引領這些議題,更重要的是,我會傾聽。所以,請確保你今天將選票投出。
讓我們一起,重塑我們熱愛的國魂。

More Prosperous Future For Our Families
by Former Vice President Joseph Biden for World Journal
These are tough times. Our country is at a crossroads, facing a pandemic, a recession, and an election that will decide our futures for a very long time.
This year, we've seen the best of America carry us forward: heroic doctors, nurses, grocers, restaurant owners, essential workers–including so many Asian Americans.
But we've also seen the worst: acts of hate against Asian Americans wrongly blamed for COVID-19, spurred on, in part, by hateful rhetoric from President Trump. They've been screamed at, spit on, and assaulted. Homes, businesses, and cars vandalized with slurs. Small children stabbed. An 89-year-old grandmother set on fire amid this rising culture of hate.
This is not who we are.
For nearly two centuries, Asian Americans have made our country strong–from the gold miners and railroad and factory workers who helped to power our rise; to the scientists, architects, artists, and entrepreneurs who are helping to drive us forward now. For years, their courage, sacrifices, and success have powered the American Dream and helped America stand as a beacon of freedom and hope to the world.
President Trump doesn't get that. He has led an assault on our values as a nation of immigrants, even tearing thousands of children from their parents' arms at our border. Hate crimes against people are at a 16-year-high, even before this pandemic. And now, to deflect blame for his failure to protect our nation from this crisis, he insists on calling COVID-19 the "China virus," no matter how many thousands of reported racist incidents against Asian Americans it encourages.
Words matter – and a president's words matter even more. As President, I'll defend the American Dream for everyone, so every hardworking family has the same fair shot at prosperity and a better future. I'll stand against racism in every form, directing the Justice Department to prioritize hate crimes, and working to heal the wounds of hatred and division, not fan the flames.
Donald Trump knew how deadly COVID-19 was back in January and did nothing to stop it. Now, more than 220,000 Americans are dead. Some 30 million have lost jobs, hours, wages. One in five small businesses have shut down. Trump's failed leadership has tanked our economy – and the longer he's president, the longer it'll take to get it fully up and running again.
We're eight months in, but Trump still has no plan. I do.
It starts with taking responsibility and doing the hard work to control this pandemic and get our lives back. I'll implement the plan I've laid out since March to beat COVID-19. I'll listen to scientists and experts; protect our families; and make testing, treatment, and any eventual vaccine free and available to everyone.
I'll get right to work building our economy back better – getting real relief out to millions of hard-hit small businesses. They're the lifeblood of our communities – but Trump's corrupt recovery passed them by, funneling funds to big corporations instead. Some 75% of Asian-owned small businesses weren't expected to get any first-round stimulus funds at all. It's wrong. I've called for ensuring small businesses with less than 50 employees get new relief funds. And I'll boost their long-term access to credit and capital, and work to ease the language barriers that can hold back immigrant entrepreneurs.
Through it all, my economic recovery plan will reward work, not just wealth, creating millions of good paying jobs of the future. Independent economists at Moody's found that my plan creates 7 million more jobs – and $1 trillion more in economic growth – than President Trump's would. And I won't raise taxes on anyone earning less than $400,000 a year – period. Instead, I'll make sure the super wealthy and big corporations finally pay their fair share.
I've fought my whole career for working and middle class families – so many of them hard-working immigrants who came to America in search of a better life. I'll help parents afford a quality education for their kids, boosting teacher pay and making public college free for most families. I'll make it easier to care for aging parents, and make health care more affordable. Trump is in court right now trying to repeal the Affordable Care Act, stripping tens of millions of people of health coverage in the middle of a deadly pandemic. It makes no sense.
Meanwhile, COVID-19 is proof that the United States can't isolate itself from the world. We have to work with other nations to meet global challenges that impact us all, starting by rebuilding our relationships with our closest partners. We're a Pacific power, and we'll stand with friends and allies to advance our shared prosperity, security, and values in the Asia-Pacific region. That includes deepening our ties with Taiwan, a leading democracy, major economy, technology powerhouse – and a shining example of how an open society can effectively contain COVID-19. And our approach to China will focus on boosting American competitiveness, revitalizing our strengths at home, and renewing our alliances and leadership abroad. We'll work to collaborate with China when it's in our interest, including on public health and climate change.
America has always led the world not only with the example of our power, but the power of our example. To truly do that again, we also have to fix our broken immigration system, keeping families together and ensuring the United States continues to draw the world's best and brightest.
I'm running to build America back better, as a country of opportunity, unity, and new beginnings. A place made strong by generations of immigrants. A place where everyone has a voice and every vote counts. I'll lead on these issues, and more importantly, I'll listen. So please make sure you get your vote in today. Together we'll restore the soul of this nation we love.

【桃花桃花開了嗎?】(English writing below)
HAVE YOUR PEACH BLOSSOMS BLOOMED?
有自信,或假裝有自信,就能招財嗎?
幾個星期前,一位臉書朋友說,我在臉書直播裡很有自信,而她本身做直播時,難免會緊張。
這讓我想到,自信、美貌與桃花的區別。
當年周杰倫出道時,把鴨嘴帽壓得低低的, 談不上很有自信,專輯卻賣得不清不楚。
和王力宏比起來,周杰倫看起來不怎麼樣,可是卻能夠比王力宏還紅。
為什麼?因為有大桃花,所以人氣才會旺。
出道時,他的桃花不是直接在他的五官上,而是在他的歌曲裡,粉絲才會百聽不厭。
一般人覺得,桃花一定與情色有關。沒錯,所以往往很紅的人,大多都離不開緋聞。周杰倫也曾說,他絕對是個孝子,但不是個好男人。
我在星期四的直播提到,做生意要成功,必須有桃花。
你得有眾人的愛戴、支持和喜歡,無論是供應商、員工、合作夥伴或客人,做起生意來會更容易。
你無法在客人眼中獨一無二,那你就是可以被取代的。
有桃花的人,她他身上會產生一種光,把眾人的眼光都吸到他身上,目不轉睛。#行走的磁鐵
同樣一句話,A君講沒人有反應,換B君講,眾人就發狂的按讚留言分享。輸就輸在,桃花這兩個字。
但這桃花得是你做對行、做對事,才會桃花開遍野。
我說過,周杰倫的桃花在他的歌曲裡(注:歌曲,不是歌聲),因此他做電影和主持,不會有他唱歌來得好賣。
張學友不是四大天王裡最帥的,早期的他也沒什麼自信的感覺,但他的歌聲就是他的桃花,讓他贏來「歌神」這美譽,到2003年為止,已買超過250萬張唱片。
我曾經和一位年輕人說,他的文筆並沒有桃花,如果他要靠撰寫文案來致富,這是不可能的,因為他會無法贏得他客人及客人的客人的青睞。
一個人的桃花密碼,可出現在她他的八字和/或大運。你了解後,再做對行,明白如何啟動自己的桃花,成功才會來得比較快。
我有一位當總主廚的男客人。明明是入對行,卻賺錢賺得辛苦。於是,我向他了解他的日常工作細節,才發現,原來他應該做A,卻做了B,因此一直有金錢的困擾。我指點他後,不久他就找到一份更高薪的工作。
如果天生沒有桃花,那就靠取個良名,來增添自己的人緣。我自己就是如此。
再來,從居家風水或店面風水佈局,也能帶動自己的人氣。
我幫客人催旺桃花時,也不能見錢眼開。有些人定力很差,有的人喜歡左擁右抱,這樣的人如果亂亂爲他催旺桃花,我會破壞很多本來美滿的家庭。
「快餐」的代表無疑就是麥當勞。很多小孩不懂「快餐」這兩個字,卻肯定會唸「麥當勞」。教學時,叫小朋友畫出自己最喜歡的食物,許多小朋友畫了薯條。重點是,他們不只是畫條狀的馬鈴薯,而是把整個紅色的M盒子也彩繪出來了。
明明賣的是垃圾食品,卻輕而易舉走入小朋友的心,也讓「懂事」的大人欲罷不能。
這就是超級大桃花的魅力。
讀到這裡,你已知道如何開啟自己的桃花運,而不讓桃花傷害到妳你和妳你的家人嗎?
🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸
如果不懂,歡迎您來尋求我的服務,讓我爲妳你開條百里桃花之路。

Is self confidence, or faking it, able to attract wealth?
A few weeks ago, a FB friend remarked that I am very confident in my FB lives, while she was always nervous before her FB Lives.
This got me thinking about the issues of self-confidence, good looks and Peach Blossom luck.
When Jay Chou first debuted, his baseball cap was pulled very low to hide his face, as he was not very confident of himself. Yet, his first album sold like hotcakes.
Compared to Wang Lee Hom, Jay Chou's features are not outstanding. However, his popularity has proven to be more far-reaching than the former.
Why so? Because of his Peach Blossom luck, hence the unexpected rise to stardom.
Jay Chou's Peach Blossom luck isn't directly reflected on his facial features, but in his songs. Hence, fans will attest to the worthiness of listening to his songs a hundred times.
Most people think that Peach Blossom Luck is related to love and lust. They are right. Hence many famous people tend to have some sex-related scandals. Jay Chou once said, he is definitely a filial son, but is not a good man.
In my FB Live last Thursday, I mentioned that for one to be successful in business, you must have some degree of Peach Blossom Luck.
You need the love and support from the masses (be it suppliers, customers, employees, partners etc), and you will have a much easier time doing business.
If you cannot be unique in the eyes of your customers, then you are easily replaceable.
A person in Peach Blossom Luck will give out a kind of light from his/her body, attracting the eyeballs of people, who find him/her irresistible and are unable to take their eyes off the person. He or she is a walking magnet of attraction.
The same words spoken by Mr A elicit no response from his readers, but when Mr B says it, a furry of likes, shares and comments rush in like a tsunami.
The difference? Peach Blossom luck.
But these Peach Blossoms can only bloom wildly throughout the meadows, if you are in the right line of work.
As I said before, Jay Chou's Peach Blossom luck is in his songs (note: songs, not singing voice). Hence the sales from his movies and hosting will not be better than those from his music.
Among the Four Heavenly Kings, Jackie Cheung is not the most handsome. In his early days, he has not much self confidence either. But his Peach Blossom Luck is in his singing voice, hence winning him the esteemed title of The God of Songs and selling over 25 million records as of 2003.
I once told a young man from my Feng Shui workshop, that his writing did not have any Peach Blossom Luck. Hence, if he wishes to make his first pot of gold through copywriting, it is impossible as he is unable to win the hearts of his clients, and hence, their customers.
The secret code of Peach Blossom Luck can be hidden in a person's Bazi or luck cycle. When you understand your own Destiny, do the right work in the right industry, and know how to unlock your Peach Blossom Luck, success will come much faster.
A male client of mine worked as a Executive Chef, which totally fitted his Bazi needs. However, he was struggling financially. I got down to the nitty gritty of his work scope, like what he had to do everyday. That was when I realised instead of doing A, he was doing B, which led to his financial struggles. Once I pointed out to him what he needed to change, he found a better job with much higher remuneration.
If you are not born with Peach Blossom luck, then you can rely on the power of a auspicious name to improve your inter-personal relations. This was what I did for myself.
The next way would be to set up a Feng Shui formation in your home/shop, to boost your popularity.
When I activate the Peach Blossom luck for my clients, I do not put monetary gains as my priority. Some clients have poor discipline, while some enjoy too much the attention from the opposite sex. If I am not choosy about which client to help, I will break up many happy families.
When you talk about fast food, the first place to come to mind is undoubtedly McDonald's. Many young children do not know the term "fast food", but they definitely know the name "McDonald's". During my teaching lessons, when the young children were asked to draw their favourite food, many of them would draw French fries. The thing is, they did not only draw the string potatoes, they also drew the fries and coloured them inside a red-coloured Letter M box.
Obviously McDonald's peddle junk food, yet they easily win the hearts of young children, and even "sensible" adults cannot put it down.
Such is the magnetism of super Peach Blossom Luck.
As you read till here, do you now know how to activate your own Peach Blossom Luck, and not let it harm you and your family?
🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸
If you are still clueless about it, I welcome you to seek my services. Let me help you open up the valley of 10-mile Peach Blossoms in your Bazi.
