My America - Chapter 512

The Antitrust Law, the Race Subdivision Act, and the final tariffs constitute the first State of the Union address since Alton Parker took office as a president. In all fairness, it is impossible to take care of all citizens of the country. But this is the whole length of this State of the Union Address, especially the last tariff issue.

For a long time, especially when the Republican Party was in power, raising tariffs to grow the country ’s industry has become a matter of convention, but not everyone agrees.

In the 20th century, the economic foundations of the North and South of the United States do not seem to have been drawn out before the Civil War, but they have not changed much. The problem is not so sharp but it has not disappeared.

For the citizens of the South and the citizens of the Midwest, the reduction in tariffs is beneficial. At least they have an option when selling agricultural and animal husbandry products. As for whether industrial enterprises can withstand the impact of foreign industrial products, this is my fart.

Even Sheffield is in favor of the decision to reduce tariffs. Even if the joint company has become a strong presence in the domestic industrial complex, it is normally opposed to tariff reduction.

Slave owners naturally have their own considerations. As a large company of the Concern model, the strength of the joint company to resist the impact is certainly much stronger than that of other companies. It can use the knife to kill people and unite foreign companies to strangle domestic competitors.

This is definitely not good for the country, but it is not necessarily bad for the joint company. Between the national industry and the interests of his own company, Sheffield decisively chose the interests of his own company.

“Don’t you say that this kind of joint foreign company’s action against domestic enterprises is a very low-end method, called the comprador?” Anne also knows that Washington is in the process of tariff adjustment debates. The Democratic Party has received a lot of tariffs from the Midwest and South Human support.

“The means are really low-end, but people call it comprador. I call it to improve competitiveness and upgrade the industry.” Sheffield lied to his wife with a heartless face. “It’s just that the process of doing things is similar.”

“What’s the difference?” Anne asked, confused, as she thought her husband should have an answer.

“In fact, there is no difference.” Sheffield gave the answer very simply, “It’s just to deceive ordinary citizens. Anyway, my company is stronger than most of the Yankee companies. When they die, the market vacates. “

There are of course differences. Sheffield is the king of the emerging industries in the United States. Promoting industrial upgrading is the duty of duty. Any social transformation will have pains. It cannot be done because someone opposes it. At this time, it is necessary for the industrial population to give play to the spirit of national ownership and sacrifice their teeth first.

The bankruptcy and difficulties of some old industries, if it can be exchanged for the promotion of new technologies, is this not a good thing?

If it is Sheffield ’s own strategy to use a joint company to siege the city, the responsibility for crushing other companies is very clear. It is the joint company, so the joint company may become the enemy of the United States.

But lowering tariffs is different. Introducing some foreign companies to come in and fight. Your company is competing. However, foreign companies can only show that you are incompetent. You can see how a joint company can live well. With these foreign companies pulling hatred, Sheffield is much easier.

It ’s not good to say it, it ’s like an Indian-style demolition, which specializes in hiring peace and Sikh thugs to kill villages and villages, so that there is no psychological burden. After all, it ’s not the government ’s own efforts. Leave alive. When the local government declared that the village had disappeared due to natural disasters, and then the land was nationalized, it was a double benefit. Unfortunately, with the advancement of science and technology, in the 21st century, the Indian government has dared not to do so. Only the National Guard can be used.

Although it is not advisable to over-promote, this is a very good way, which is very consistent with Sheffield ’s idea of ​​having a good reputation and dying opponents, so the tariffs must be reduced, and the joint foreign companies should harvest the country. It’s perfect.

These minutiae problems cannot be explained to Annie. After the explanation, it will lead to the following questions. How does the joint company deal with these foreign capitals when it achieves its purpose? Sheffield cannot always tell his wife that Europe will fight, and the threat of foreign capital will disappear by itself.

Alton Parker ’s first State of the Union address after he took office exemplified the tendency to govern. The news came out of Washington and quickly caused an uproar. Many people opposed this State of the Union address. It can be said that only any part is uncontroversial, and each part is full of controversy.

The reasons for the dispute are many and varied. Many companies expect Alton Parker to be after the new president takes office. Do n’t look for the trouble of big companies like President Roosevelt. Now Alton Parker publicly stated that the antitrust law is very reasonable and sang praises for it, which has disappointed many companies.

As for the subdivision bill defining the mixed race, opponents also have a variety of reasons. The National Association of Colored People said that this is the influence of some southern forces to facilitate the differentiation of black ethnic groups.

It seems that black people are not without smart people. To tell the truth, Sheffield is the plan. There are two sets of standards in the southern states. One is the principle of a drop of blood led by Virginia. As long as the black lineage is, it is black. One is based on Texas, with the addition of mixed races. The slave owner naturally wants to promote the definition of hometown.

After controversy, Sheffield called the widely respected Texas Senator Martin Luther King II, and then Martin Luther King III came forward to explain his views on the new bill, saying that this is not a bad thing. Instead, it ’s a good thing. Black people want to live independently in the United States, instead of being persecuted, they always feel that they are facing themselves.

“If I look at it, the benefit of this bill is that it allows a communication bridge between black ethnic groups and white ethnic groups. Although I am black, it is undeniable that there are still huge differences in social skills between blacks and whites. Before mastering the survival skills, it is very frustrating to attribute the current difficulties to the injustice of society without our own efforts. “Martin Luther King II quipped in the Texas Parliament,” like No one like Mr. Du Bois will humiliate him because of his skin color. We blacks can be like Mr. Du Bois. I believe no one will humiliate us. “

“The most important thing is that we should treat the suffering in front of us as a grind to change the stereotype of white people. This process may not be smooth, but I believe it can be achieved after all. This is my dream!”

After Martin Luther King II finished his speech, the Texas Parliament sounded a long-lasting applause, and the Texas Speaker said publicly, “From the perspective of the entire United States, if it is divided into two types, one is Black people, the other kind are black people in Texas. The black people here are equally determined and courageous. They have good qualities. They dress appropriately and create wealth through their own labor. Just like our lone star state, we are also inseparable. a part of.”

“I remember last year’s statistics, it seems that black people in Texas accounted for less than two percent.” Sheffield looked at the report of Martin Luther King II in the newspaper and said such a word without a word. .

“This is the case. The proportion of black people has been declining in recent years, mainly because of more illegal immigrants.” Anne’s eyes were taken back from Evelyn, answering her husband’s question.

“Don’t say that, they are all legal immigrants. After Arlington’s approval!” Sheffield put down the newspaper and corrected without hesitation. “Like our Texas, how harmonious the race is. The experience spreads throughout the country, but unfortunately the people of the National Association of Colored People do n’t appreciate it. The Yangji people also wear a pair of pants with them. A group of foreigners also join in the excitement. Our country ’s own affairs, they get these **** against them? “

The foreigners in Sheffield’s mouth are naturally a group of countries in Latin America, because the definition of the mixed ethnic group is called Latin. Some countries consider this to be discrimination against the Latin American countries by the United States.

In the earlier assumptions, even the slave owners did not expect that this thing would become a diplomatic issue, which caused AIA surprise. Texas has been divided like this for years, and it has no problem at all.

Annie couldn’t help smiling, he didn’t understand diplomatic issues, but she felt that some foreign protests could not change anything, and she even wanted to persuade her husband to dismiss her ideas.

“It’s called the Latins. Our country can’t beat Anglo-French-Russian, and the remaining pile of pit countries, how dare you treat our country?” Sheffield gritted his teeth, “It was originally a group of mixed race countries, do It ’s all done, ca n’t bear to say a few words? The internal affairs of the United States, they also want to interfere? Brazil also calls itself a white country, when I ’m color blind? You just call Gael and McHale, he is also a mixed race most.”

For her husband Bogutong ’s cold knowledge reserve, Anne has already been surprised and frowned, “Actually, these two issues are not a big problem. Both the antitrust law and the racial subdivision bill are okay, mainly the tariff issue. This is the major issue that the two parties are arguing about. The Republican Party has many supporters who are opposed to lowering tariffs. Will container manufacturing and terminal reconstruction slow down first? “

“No, it’s just a matter of looking for Gael.” Sheffield Chengzhu said, “Some Republican lawmakers have great respect for Gael. We will send him a telegram later. With the current seat in Congress, we can ignore the Republican Party. Views, but in order to create an atmosphere of solidarity, it is better to talk. “
