Tóm tắt

Melton's steps were deliberate and measured, each one leaving a deeper impact on the ground. The man’s screams grew louder with every step Melton took, but Melton remained unmoved. The world had labeled him a monster, and every attempt to show his better side was met with hostility, forcing him to embrace the darkness within. "I have been subjected to pain by your own kind," Melton continued, his voice steady and cold. "I have been sharpened through fire." He bent down, bringing his face close to the man's, his eyes burning with intensity. "Please... please make it stop," the man begged, blood seeping from his nose, ears, and eyes as the pressure mounted. Melton's gaze hardened. "She begged too. She just wanted to be free from the shackles this system has put us in. What did you do?" He straightened, looking down at the man with a mixture of disdain and sorrow. "You killed her," he stated, his voice filled with quiet fury. With a final, decisive act, he increased the power of Gravity Drag, leaving the man with no escape from his suffering. ****************************************************************** In the heart of a bustling urban labyrinth, Melton Ryder's life is transformed when he gets powers after the first great awakening where he got his powers. Along the line he gets hold of a system, an enigmatic digital interface that enhances his abilities and later opens his eyes to a shadowy government conspiracy. As Melton delves deeper into the sinister project, he becomes a target for ruthless government agents determined to silence him and erase all evidence of their secret endeavors. In a world where technology and power intertwine, Melton Ryder is thrust into a dangerous game of cat and mouse. Desperate and seeking refuge, Melton finds sanctuary with a group of underground rebels who are waging their own war against the oppressive regime. Among them are formidable allies: Zara, a brilliant hacker; Darius, a healer; Cass, a speedster; Lena, an empath; and Nadia, an illusionist. Together, they delve into the inner workings of the System, uncovering secrets that could change everything. As Melton integrates with the rebels, he faces a pivotal moment of betrayal. Discovering that one of his trusted allies has been a government informant all along. This shatters his confidence and trust. Disillusioned but determined, Melton must navigate this treacherous landscape, unsure of who to trust as he continues to unravel the conspiracy. The stakes are raised when Melton undertakes a perilous mission to infiltrate a high-security government facility. His goal: to gather irrefutable evidence of the conspiracy and expose the truth to the world. Along the way, he faces formidable obstacles, from advanced security measures to rival hackers employed by the government, testing his resolve and ingenuity.

Developing countries of all countries In 2018, government spending in

Today’s low-income countries spend more than twice on average than today’s advanced economies spent more than a century ago (Figure 1). To be sure, this difference reflects the lack of the tax instruments and systems we have today. From 1850 until the early 1900s, customs duties and excises provided the bulk of government revenues, while the personal income tax and VAT were not introduced in countries until later. Moreover, society’s expectations from the government were much different then. In 1900, for example, spending on unemployment, health, pensions, and housing amounted to only 1.1 percent of GDP in the Scandinavian countries on average and to 0.7 percent of GDP in the U.S. Even with low level of government spending, economic development was brisk in most of the Advanced 14 at the turn of the 20th century, with infrastructure improvements financed by private capital and the strong expansion of primary and secondary education. And here lies the lesson for today’s developing economies: While working on strengthening domestic taxation and raising more revenues to finance public goods, the priority needs to be on improving the business environment to attract private capital—mobilizing private finance for development. Figure 1. Governments of today’s low-income countries spent more on average in 2018 than today’s advanced economies did in 1900 (in percent of GDP) Governments of today’s low-income countries spent more on average in 2018 than today’s advanced economies did in 1900 Source: IMF Prudence and Profligacy Database, IMF Fiscal Monitor 2018, World Bank WDI, and authors’ estimates. Note: LIC = low-income countries; SSA = Sub-Saharan Africa; A14 = the average of the Advanced 14 in the figure. GDP per capita of the Advanced 14 in our sample averaged $2,722 in today’s prices during the last decade of the 19th century; In 2016, per capita GDP in sub-Saharan Africa averaged $2,757.Government spending in the Advanced 14 increased substantially since 1960 as they reevaluated the role of government amid rapid industrialization and globalization and new taxes became commonplace (Figure 2). The shift from agrarian to industrial to post-industrial economies required different worker skills. Economic disruptions reshaped governments in the past, as is happening now with the changing world of work, leading to a large expansion of social insurance and protection spending.Government spending among the advanced economies has increased, but so has its variability. Before 1913, spending among the advanced economies ranged from less than 2 percent of GDP in Japan to 13 percent in Italy, or a span of 11 percentage points. Today, the span of spending among the advanced economies is 39 percentage points: from 17.3 percent in Hong Kong to 56.4 percent in France. Development paradigms vary among today’s advanced and developing countries. Robust growth can happen with a smaller or a larger government, in general. Too large of a redistribution, however, may create substantial disincentives to work and invest, or lead to tensions between formal and informal workers, employees of large companies or state-owned enterprises and small private firms. This danger now is clearer than ever: The changing world of work is clashing with persistent informality in developing countries and social protection systems that cover only part of the population.must for today’s developing countries, especially for those with abundant natural resources. However, there is overwhelming evidence that fiscal policy has been consistently pro-cyclical in developing countries, resulting in profound macroeconomic imbalances, unproductive debt build-ups, and ongoing instability.any of today’s poorest countries do not collect adequate revenues to build the human capital, infrastructure, and institutions needed for stronger growth and faster poverty reduction. In sub-Saharan Africa, for example, 15 of the 45 countries have revenues lower than 15 percent of

Rejects: A Sorrowful Flame (First flop, rewrite)

Alexander J. Khet was born different from his family, with a deep fascination for the sea and its inhabitants. He lacked the typical ego and flair common among his people, making him an outcast among his own kin. To his family, he was an eyesore... but he was blood nonetheless. That is until he awakened his flame. A bright blue flame reminiscent of the depths of the sea. He was ecstatic, hoping his parents, his father specifically, would finally see him as something more than trash. But that was not the case... The Khet family and the residents of Emberia City were outraged. To them, his azure flames were the inverse of all their red spectrum stood for. Where they saw raw strength and power in their signature crimson flame, they saw a fluidity that matched that of water in his. And to add insult to injury, his deep blue flames, although strong, were hotter than his body could handle, burning him whenever he activated them. Stripped of his noble rights, he was chased away and brought to the brink of death by his creator... His father. Before the killing blow landed upon him, he jumped into that same sea he had admired all his life. On that day, 777 HD 7 years after his birth, Alexander J. Khet was killed, burnt beyond recognition, and drifting upon the ocean floor... Nine years later, the underwater city, Atlas, sent a batch of their most talented students to study at the world-renowned Vyron Academy. And among them lay Jhet Osborn, adopted son of the noble Osborn family. Armed with an azure flame, something unheard of for a citizen of the Atlas empire, Jhet plans to live a peaceful life at Vyron, not interested in conflicts from his past. But when he spots familiar faces among the crowd of new students, bustling staff, and doting parents, he will realize that escaping his past... is nothing more than a pipe dream.

I am not much of this kind of stories, but the way chapter one was started, I give credit to the author for detailing it with precision. The ml, Melton, his love for his late parents and girlfriend were realistic. I could feel him and his desire to avenge their death. Keep it up, Sir.
