Chapter 1637 Boo for the President
? I still remember when Ao Guanhai was elected, centered on the United States, the whole world was permeated with a naive sense of political anesthesia, like jiao gangsters and drug addicts, in a kind of illusory pleasure, fantasizing about this " "Democracy" results in a brighter America and the world.
What is especially ridiculous is that not only the Western world is collectively hilarious, but even some American rival countries have also fallen into the anesthesia of lighthouse cooking.
In the United States, whether it is electing a president or a congressman, how important is the real people?
When Ao Guanhai campaigned for the election, he claimed that he mainly collected small donations from the public on the Internet, which seemed to represent a wide range of public opinion. But in fact, political donations from wealthy people such as Andy Smith and tens of millions of dollars from Wall Street played a decisive role in his election.
As for the wealthy class such as Andy Smith, the purpose of the Wall Street tycoons to send him to the White House is to ask him to repay his investment after he takes office.
For example, after being elected, they will return Wall Street generously, and use the money of the Nashui people to rescue those private bankers. Congress passed the latest bailout plan, and Wall Street's goal has been achieved.
However, the complacent Ao Guanhai really thinks that he has mastered the magic weapon and power of "democracy" and can "change" the United States. I have to ask, are you naive?
Conscious that he represents the interests of the majority of middle- and lower-level voters, he cursed Wall Street as a greedy "fat cat" and expressed his determination to strengthen financial supervision on Wall Street. When it won the support and reputation of the public, it also offended the financial giants on Wall Street.
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, the "power lunch" that will affect the situation of next year's mid-term elections ended in a friendly and harmonious atmosphere. Andy smiled with satisfaction and hugged and bid farewell to several financial tycoons who were about to leave Washington and return to New York.
The deal is done.
Andy stepped into the golden elevator of the Four Seasons Hotel with a smile. Thinking of the harmonious communication with Ao Guanhai and the maintenance of their friendship, and what he will do against him next, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows , without the slightest hesitation or guilt in my heart.
"Democracy is unreliable! The cards are shuffled and the rules are manipulated. Welcome to the end of the age of sanity, where there is no right and wrong, only in and out!"
"Ding--"
The golden elevator door opened, and the bodyguards walked out first. Andy muttered in an imperceptible voice, while walking towards the presidential suite, where there was a small waist JING named Zhizhiji waiting for him to feed.
to be frank,
Democracy elections in the United States, whether it is elections for the president or congressmen, are of no use to the people, only to the capitalists.
Although some people can still use the Internet and other means to accept a wide range of small donations from the public, but this is like the shares of a listed company. The shares of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of small shareholders are no match for a major shareholder, even if this Major shareholders are in jail.
Therefore, whoever spends more money can control the media, create the direction of public opinion that he wants, and lead to the election results that capitalists want.
Perhaps, to put it more cruelly, the wealthy capitalists in the United States treat all American politicians as their own dogs, obedient, wagging their tails, and begging for mercy. This is the most important political morality in the United States hidden under democracy.
In American politics, the fantasy "democracy" does not exist, only "money owners".
On February 17, in Denver, the western city of the United States, accompanied by Vice President Bai and others, and witnessed by hundreds of journalists, President Oklahoma signed an economic stimulus plan totaling 787 billion U.S. dollars.
At the same time, the London stock market, which opened earlier than the US stock market, closed sharply lower on the 17th due to the plunge in bank stocks and commodity stocks.
Affected by this, although the new economic stimulus plan has been signed by the President, the market still has doubts about the actual effect of the plan.
Coupled with investors expecting the US government to announce measures against home foreclosures and more details of the banking rescue plan were not announced at the same time, under the cloud of anxiety, the financial sector suffered a heavy setback at the beginning of trading.
At the same time, another focus of market attention, General Motors and Chrysler must submit a restructuring and recovery plan to the US government on the same day in order to obtain billions of dollars in rescue loans, otherwise they will face the threat of bankruptcy. However, the national media and Wall Street investors are not optimistic that the two companies will complete the negotiations with shareholders and labor unions before the deadline, and they plunged 10% at the opening.
On the same day, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York released a report before the opening of the U.S. stock market, showing that the manufacturing index in the New York area plunged 12% again in February to minus 34, the lowest level since the record began in 2001, indicating that the manufacturing industry is still shrinking. . Shares of major manufacturing companies tumbled.
In addition, international oil prices plummeted below US$35 a barrel, dragging down the energy sector as a whole.
The three major U.S. stock indexes plummeted by about 4% as a whole, which should have been a day of "double happiness" for the U.S. president and the public. As the performance of the stock market surprised most people, the U.S. stock market took a surprise The worst decline since the beginning of the year booed the high-spirited Mr. President and sent a resounding slap in the face.
The word flashy has become the prefix of the economic stimulus plan that has just been signed into effect, and it is the focus of complaints by economists on the Internet and on TV.
"Okay, let's leave it at that. It's just an exclusive interview. Besides, it's from my own TV station. I don't think they will take bad pictures of me..."
Andy stood in front of the hood mirror, letting the little assistant and the moist red-faced Jing Candice to check the gaps in his costume and hairstyle.
As for why the two of them are together, tsk tsk, as a versatile little assistant, Andy will naturally not let go of the opportunity for the two of them to get to know each other and communicate. Besides, putting them together will save money, and there is no need to open another room.
"Boom~"
"Honey, you promised me that you will find me when you get back to New York, don't make me wait too long." Jing, who was wearing a pink nightgown, wrapped her arms around Andy's neck and kissed him on the mouth Put it down, and said obsessively.
"Okay, okay, I will definitely go to you, you little demon Jing, you are really annoying." Andy laughed while helping her touch her GU, while teasing.
"Just pester you! Then do you like me pestering you?" Candice blinked her beautiful eyes coquettishly, twisted her slender waist in Andy's arms, and raised her face willfully.
"Hehe, I like it." What else could Andy say, he glanced at the little assistant who was rolling his eyes wildly and sneered at Candice, patted Candice on the cheek, and said with a smile: "Okay, stop making trouble , I won’t see you off in a while, you take care of yourself, the appointment time is almost here.”
"Boom~"
Candice was very reluctant to be with Andy again. After a long time, Andy smiled and reached out to touch her cheek, "You should clean up too, the plane is ready, you can go there and take off." .”
"Thank you dear."
"Don't be stupid, it's fine, I'm leaving."
After finishing speaking, Andy turned around and walked out. Tory Black, who was wearing a black slim-fit OL professional skirt and a silk white shirt, gave Candice an angry look, and stretched out his hand to grab two tissues from the paper drawer beside her. , quickly catch up with Andy.
Ding--
Andy walked into the elevator, the little assistant came forward with a tissue, wiped off a bit of lip gloss on his lips, checked it carefully, and after confirming that there was no problem, he said, "I've never seen anything bigger than her. And emotional, immature woman."
Well, sure enough, acting like a baby is undoubtedly the patent of children for foreigners. Andy shook his head and laughed, "She is still young."
The little assistant rolled her eyes at the big devil angrily, well, she forgot the fact that she sometimes acted like a baby.
In the coffee shop of the Four Seasons Hotel, the staff of the NBC TV station is ready. The sunlight shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows on two opposite chairs. In the middle is a small table with a bouquet of flowers and the logo of the Four Seasons Hotel.
With Andy's arrival, all the staff of NBC TV present came forward to greet their bosses.
