In America, This Congressman's Style Is a Little Off

After transmigrating to America in 2012, Li Tianyun was just another nobody in Congress.

He only wanted to make some quick money and live a quiet life.

But then he unlocked the Public Welfare Rebate System.

[You picked up a bottle and improved the neighborhood environment. Rebate: $1.]

Staring at the bottle he'd casually tossed into the trash, Li Tianyun fell into thought.

Then he came up with a bold idea.

…

[You successfully provided meals for 1,000 low-income residents in a Los Angeles district.]

[Rebate: $5 million.]

Staring at the community delivery program he'd casually launched purely to farm points in bulk, Li Tianyun fell into thought.

He'd only wanted to cut corners and make money in bulk. How had he ended up feeding over a thousand low-income residents as well?

…

[You successfully established an affordable healthcare system in Los Angeles, easing the medical expenses of one million residents.]

[Rebate: $100 billion.]

Staring at the hospital he'd bought on the cheap and equipped with a premium membership program, he fell into thought.

“Wait… wasn't I planning to abuse my power for personal gain and fleece the rich?”

[Congratulations! You have reduced the crime rate in California by 99%!]

[Rebate: $200 billion!]

Looking at the surveillance cameras he'd installed across the streets for his own safety,

Li Tianyun, who had been focused entirely on making money, felt a rare twinge of guilt.

…

Years later, a reporter interviewed Li Tianyun, who was preparing to run for president.

“Could you tell us how you gradually transformed the entire United States?”

Li Tianyun was silent for a moment.

“Actually…”

“At first, I just wanted to make some money.”

In front of their televisions,

a group of congressmen fell into thought.

“So…”

“Is something a little off about this congressman's whole deal?”
