How much money did the Avengers have caused in the fighting? Who will bear these losses?

Just after watching the "American Team 3" on the weekend, I have always been standing without a shield. The main reason is because the iron man is handsome and has a stem. Follow me. The reason why the Avengers Alliance was born is that the enemies are getting stronger and stronger, and the existing military forces of mankind cannot counterbalance. Therefore, their opponents in each battle are very strong. Take the first alien armies as an example to answer the question of the title. In Replica 1, a group of ferocious enemies obeyed God's (Rocky) guidelines, descended from heaven, and caused huge damage to high-rise buildings with planes over Manhattan, New York. The innocent people fled and fled, a sirens all of a sudden, the fire sky, the boulder fluttered, the whole country was shocked. Does this story sound familiar? True, the Battle of New York in the movie is a replica of the 9/11 incident in 2001. In the 9/11 incident, in addition to causing casualties, terrorists also caused direct economic losses of US$30 billion and indirect economic losses of US$53 billion. However, the enemies in the movie are not two passenger planes, but cool alien spaceships. At the same time, Iron Man's missiles and mad Green Giants are also inevitably hurt in the battle, plus the US team, um, waving the fist? It may also have caused a major loss of hundreds of dollars, and the total economic loss of the recombination in New York is far greater than the 9/11 event. According to estimates of disaster assessment firm Kinetic Consulting, the direct economic losses (demolished buildings, roads, and other facilities) caused by the New York War in the film are approximately 600-700 billion U.S. dollars, and the damage to business and the subsequent repair costs will be The resulting indirect economic loss of about $90 billion, which is a total of about $160 billion in economic losses. In particular, because of its large scale, researchers used a nuclear-weapon-level loss model for calculations. In contrast, the total economic loss of the Fukushima Earthquake that hit Japan in 2011 was approximately US$122 billion. It is natural for someone to bear such a large loss. In the manga, Iron Man set up a rehabilitation fund named after his mother. However, this fund exists in the Earth-616 universe, and the universe in which the film is located is Earth-199999, so it does not help. Who should pay for this money? First we think of insurance companies. Indeed, after the 9/11 attacks, World Trade Center owner Larry Silverstein sued the insurance company and demanded that the other party pay $7 billion in losses. Later, due to contractual issues, the insurance company was eventually awarded a compensation of US$4.55 billion. It seems to be feasible. However, after 9/11, insurance companies added the “terrorist attack” clause to the “force majeure clause” of the insurance policy. Therefore, if the insurance is purchased after 2002, the insurance company does not have to compensate for the terrorist attack. Lost. As a compensation, Congress passed the Terrorist Insurance Act in the same year, stipulating that future terrorist attacks will be jointly paid by specialized funds and the Ministry of Finance. The reason is that the terrorist attacks are caused by the country being hated and the state is responsible. But another question arises. Can an invasion of an alien spacecraft be a terrorist attack? Modern warfare is not directed against civilians, so indiscriminate attacks on civilian facilities like this seem like an attack. However, according to the definition of terrorism, it should use violence against non-combatants to gain attention for groups, ideas or individuals. In the movie, the invasion of aliens is not intended to attract anyone's attention. They simply want to occupy the earth. Therefore, although the means are similar to those of 9/11, alien invasion should be counted as war because of different purposes. In this way, SHIELD needs to take responsibility for sweeping the battlefield. According to the film, SHIELD is an ad hoc organization that should not be affiliated with the US Navy or the Coast Guard. It had been obeying the President of the United States before, but it was able to go to India to catch the Hulk and go to Germany to do the task, so it looks more like a spy agency. Ask, seeing such a female spy as the black widow Scarlett, what else can you hold back? In US Team 3, the reunification became an international organization with American citizens participating in the jurisprudence (as if only the Panthers and Witches were not Americans) and was taken over by the United Nations. Therefore, in the future fighting, the losses will be from the United Nations countries. Together with money pocket. At the time of the New York war, the attributes of the multiplex should be similar to those of the Coast Guard. They belonged to the Department of Homeland Security in peacetime and were under the command of the Ministry of Defense during the war. Just mentioned that the invasion of aliens should be defined as a war, so the US Department of Defense is the payer of this incident. At the same time, I believe that even if the United Nations volunteers to help pay these claims, it will be rejected by the U.S. Department of Defense. This is not only because the next year can get more budget from Congress, but the alien spacecraft and weapons seized after the war will become the assets of the Ministry of Defense. This is how much money can not be bought. Therefore, we can know that the war losses in the 2012 "Avengers' Alliance" will be approximately 160 billion U.S. dollars, and most of the money will be paid by the Department of Defense. However, there are a few exceptions, that is, losses caused by Ray Thor and Rocky. Since they are "gods", they should be counted as "natural disasters" rather than "military personnel." So news reports probably have to be written like this: In this difficult battle against both invaders and natural disasters, the U.S. people played a revolutionary spirit in the battlefield and eventually defeated the natural calamities, and arrested according to law with the help of a green mass. A natural disaster. References: 1. Watson, Chuck and Jupin, Sara, 2012. 'Chitauri Invasion of New York City Post Event Damage Estimate'. Kinetic Analysis Corporation2.
