Chapter 445 Study Conversation

At 11:45, the Roosevelts arrived at the manor 5 minutes early, showing respect without being obtrusive.

Li Zitao, who got the news, walked quickly to the gate, just in time to see the bodyguards carrying Roosevelt out from the back seat, and his wheelchair was placed by the side of the road.

"Franklin, Anna." Li Zitao laughed and stepped forward, bending down and hugging Roosevelt.

"Thank you for inviting Charlie, these days are too busy." Compared with the last time we met, he looked a little more relaxed, and his smile made the lines on his face more conspicuous.

"You should relax properly. The combination of work and rest is suitable for everyone." Li Zitao pushed the wheelchair and walked to the manor.

"Anna, Franklin, welcome to the manor." Mary, who made sure that the house was ready, stood at the steps in front of the house, greeting elegantly and dignifiedly.

"Thank you for your invitation, ma'am." Anna stepped forward to salute on behalf of her husband, and the group entered the hall.

"Franklin, don't you have plans to build a special car for yourself?" Li Zitao started the conversation and said with a smile as the two parties sat down at the dining table.

"What are you talking about?" Roosevelt was a little interested, special car, is there any difference?

"The electric lifting platform has a card slot under it, so that the wheelchair can be stuck in it, and there is also an electric wheelchair. If you need it, my people can help."

Electric wheelchairs are not high-tech, they only need to focus on safety and speed.

As for the electric lifting platform he mentioned, that thing is also not difficult. It can be driven by the electric power of the car itself. The doors need to be adjusted to a certain extent, and the body needs to be lengthened.

"Try it." Roosevelt said bluntly.

"Hogg, tell the skunks to come here." Li Zitao planned to let the skunks take measurements and pass the data to Pioneer Technology, but they were too far away.

"Let's enjoy the food first, and we'll talk about it after we're done." Mary raised her crystal glass and said warmly and politely, "To our future president."

Everyone raised their glasses and said with a smile on their faces, "To Mr. President."

"Haha, it's not the time yet..." Roosevelt's smile was gentle and contagious, and his eyes were shining with confidence and determination.

With disabled legs, he has been able to go to this day, and the struggle, hesitation, confusion and suffering he has experienced are beyond the comprehension of outsiders.

A strong heart and lofty ideals have brought him to this day. Roosevelt wants to lead this country to glory and prosperity again. This is his belief.

So, he doesn't allow himself to fail, and his supporters don't want to see this, Mr. President, it will happen soon.

The current President Hoover is dying, and the whole of America can see it.

When he announced his re-election, the media took the lead in attacking, 'shameless politicians, incompetent liars are destroying everything. '

The report under this headline was reprinted by many newspapers one after another. The official campaign had not yet started, and what greeted him was the situation of being the target of public criticism.

The people are too helpless and desperate, and they are now desperately hoping that someone can change the corrupt social economy.

Hoover, the big talker who shouted that "no one in America is hungry," and "there are no homeless people in Washington", is not a qualified candidate no matter how you look at it.

"Charlie, did you read last month's Happiness Magazine?" Roosevelt cut a steak and mentioned this month's issue with a serious face.

"34 million people can't make ends meet, 2 million people are displaced, and 20,000 people starved to death in New York on the streets, is that what you're talking about?"

Li Zitao put the beef into his mouth with a fork and chewed it lightly, the delicious gravy remained between his mouth and the aroma was overflowing.

"There are more than 800,000 girls who risked pregnancy and took to the streets for only 10 cents..." Looking at the two ladies, Roosevelt took a deep breath to calm his emotions.

"The last cover of Time magazine was a child like a skeleton, a generation of depression, I really want to do it now." Roosevelt sighed and put down his knife and fork, thinking of these he lost his appetite.

"Honey, the steak is very good, you should eat more." Mrs. Roosevelt looked at her husband with concern. His appetite has been poor recently.

Since the bad news came one after another, the life of the citizen has become more difficult, and his sleep time and appetite have also decreased.

"Franklin, this is why people believe and support you. You have to stay strong to meet the next battle and fight for them."

The topic is a bit heavy. Behind these data are fresh lives. For Roosevelt, who is about to sit on the presidency, these are responsibilities.

It is heartbreaking, innocent families suffer, girls have to take to the streets to make a living, experience pain again and again, longings and fantasies about love are shattered by the cruel reality.

The old have nothing to support, the young have nothing to teach, and 3 million children have lost the opportunity to go to school, dragging their young bodies to factories, garbage dumps, or onto the road of crime.

Because that is their only chance to survive, the last straw.

After finishing the lunch in a hurry, there are many dishes on the table that have not been touched. Mary asks people to pack these, and then she can notify someone to take them away, and take them back to share with her family.

Li Zitao pushed Roosevelt to the study, closed the door, poured two glasses of whiskey on the table, and prepared to have a long talk.

"Do you know anything about the New Deal?" Roosevelt mentioned his New Deal again, which was the focus of his propaganda and the core idea of ​​his future governance.

"Understand a little." Li Zitao nodded for him to continue.

"I didn't mention the core concept in the media. After becoming president, my first decree was to issue national debt to restore people's trust in financial institutions."

"How big is it?" Li Zitao is very interested in the national debt.

"No less than 3.5 billion U.S. dollars." Roosevelt said an astronomical figure.

3.5 billion US dollars, this is cash, not the so-called market value or net worth.

This represents a lot of profits. Is Roosevelt going to divide the cake in advance?

"Emergency Banking Act, reform of bankrupt banks, capital concentration, government will provide subsidies and loans to big banks, speed up corporate mergers and acquisitions, and strengthen competitiveness..."

Roosevelt's series of plans amounted to a grand capital feast, issuing treasury bonds and obtaining funds from large financial institutions.

Most of the funds will be reinjected into these institutions in the name of subsidies and loans, and unqualified institutions will be eliminated with new licenses, so that capital is highly concentrated.

The investment of 3 billion US dollars and the direct intervention of the president, these policies are beneficial to capital, and can ensure that the public restores trust in financial institutions and allow people to deposit money in the bank again.

Banks with government loans will also reopen to business, further stimulating market prosperity and recirculating capital in the market.

Support the merger of large enterprises to small enterprises, strengthen market competitiveness while concentrating capital, and reduce internal friction between the same city or state.

As expected from a capitalist family, this feast is likely to make everyone's mouth full and satisfied.
