Blackstone Code

Chapter 1432: negotiated

Everyone has their own opinion on being president.

Ordinary people in the middle and lower classes will think this is very interesting, because the federal president is not a symbol of responsibility in their eyes, but a symbol of power. .

This means that in the hearts of the people, the president is a role that can enjoy power, rather than assume the role of the rise and fall of a country.

They don't think "what kind of ability is needed to exercise power", at least in their own opinion, if they can really become the president of a country, at least they won't be a bad president.

They're not going to mess up the country like those dictators, they're going to increase the working conditions of the people at the bottom and improve people's living standards...

They will have a lot of ideas, and they will never feel how incompetent this role is!

But there are so many factors Mr. Truman has to consider, too many to count.

He knew that sitting in this position brought him not something as simple as power, but more responsibility than power.

Every time it faces a choice, the Federation will embark on a different path, and the future will continue to change.

Countless choices eventually turned into the past, present, and future of the Federation.

This is actually scary.

Because no one knows whether one of their choices will lead the Federation to a path of destruction. This responsibility is too heavy. Mr. Truman is not sure at this moment that he is the one the Federation needs. people.

No one spoke, Lynch was waiting for Mr. Trueman to make a decision, and the latter's mind was in chaos.

The current domestic situation, the international situation not far away, and the fog and cloud of future wars shrouded the world.

He doesn't know where the future will go, and he doesn't know how to choose to make the Federation what he thinks it is. He doesn't know.

Lynch added in a timely manner, "If you run for election, we will all be excluded from the decision-making circle of the next president. Even if we know that he has chosen a wrong direction, there is no way to remind him in time, let alone Correct him!"

There was a slight change in Mr. Trueman's eyes, and anyone with great ambitions is actually very controlling.

They have a clear purpose, efficient execution ability, and need to have enough control over the situation. Maybe they don't show it normally, but they do.

Even success again and again will give them an indestructible self-confidence in themselves!

Mr. Truman has these qualities too, but they are hidden under his military temperament, and he does not need to be so obvious in his work.

Why would he choose to work with the current Mr. President and provide him with various opinions, abilities and even help?

Because everyone knows that Mr. President is easy to be persuaded, which means that when Mr. Truman needs to exert control over something, it is not him who often shows the desire to control, but Mr. President.

He was hiding behind the scenes, but it wasn't necessarily his intention.

If it continues to develop according to the current model, there is no problem. The next president will not be their "close friend", he will not unconditionally support Mr. Truman's ideas, and he will not even have the opportunity to express his own opinions.

This is unacceptable to a person who is inherently controlling.

He pondered, his eyes turned from confusion to sharp, no one hoped that the country would become stronger than him, and no one was more selfless than him.

At least from his own perspective.

Although he accepted some "gifts" from capitalists, such as holding shares in some foundations, or obtained a lot of money through other means.

After the money was finally counted, it was donated to various public welfare organizations.

Since he was forcibly held down by the capitalists—mainly the Duncan family who stood behind the scenes, he no longer actively fought against the capital forces, but merged with them.

Since you want to become friends with the capitalists, the first step is to accept their various legal gifts.

The transmission of interests is also one of the landmark events for a person to join the capital camp.

In the words of capitalists, because this person has value, he can enjoy such treatment, which is the embodiment of the value of people in the commodity society!

On the surface, Mr. Truman has become what the capitalists need, but in fact, he has not started to degenerate like those ordinary politicians.

He is still holding on to his heart.

He told himself that everything he did was selfless, and he believed in it, and now, it was time to make a choice.

He lit another cigarette, took a deep breath, and exhaled the smoke from his chest and abdomen like a sigh. He looked at Lynch, "If I participate in the election, the possibility of winning ... should not be very high."

His attitude has changed, and Lynch has more smiles on his face. He leaned back on the sofa, his legs crossed, and the whole sitting posture looked very relaxed, "This is not a problem for us!"

"If you make a decision, then we have to start preparing. Fortunately, the problem occurred earlier, and we still have plenty of time..."

Lynch is lighthearted, and there are a number of reasons that pushed Mr. Truman to power, first of all they are good friends, at least at this stage and until something happens in the future.

As a good friend, he needs to help his friend reach his deepest dreams, it is a friend's duty.

Secondly, Mr. Truman's original disgust and guard against capital forces can allow Lynch to gain more benefits. This sounds a bit nonsense. After all, from outsiders, Lynch is also one of the representatives of capitalists and capital forces.

But Lynch's thoughts were true.

The biggest problem in the current federal society is that the erosion of capital on the entire country is too serious and the impact is too deep.

Some might say, isn't this a good thing?

At least for capitalists, the power of capital is infinitely magnified. As long as it is a problem that money can solve, it is not a problem. Shouldn't Lynch prefer such an environment?

Of course he likes it, but this liking is not so thorough.

In this society, most of the existing volume is firmly in the hands of the first and middle generation capital forces, and for the rest, they will participate in the competition.

Lynch came too late. Every expansion of his assets and power came from his constant pulling of the surrounding capital forces to provide himself with room for expansion.

On the contrary, if the current society, under the power-centered system, creates a high-pressure environment for capital forces, a large amount of "energy" will be released.

There are many businesses today that are essentially illegal, but not illegal, because the invasion of Congress by capital forces has left many proposals or bills with many loopholes.

We neither oppose nor advocate it, which leaves ample room for profit-making for capitalists.

The simplest example is the federal **** industry. In the federal regulations, as long as the two organs that are not specifically implemented perform some kind of special action, then this is not a sexual act, and this is not an illegal business.

This gives a lot of space for individuals or organizations working in this industry to not touch or use fixed organs.

But these acts, can it be said that they are not sexual acts?

Anyone with normal intelligence and three views knows that, no, these are also sexual acts, but why do these businesses exist?

Because the law does not clearly stipulate that these behaviors are also sexual behaviors, and it is illegal to not stipulate that these behaviors are also illegal, so it naturally gives the practitioners in the astringent industry the opportunity to display freely.

The same problem also exists in the field of capital. It seems that there are perfect laws in all walks of life, but most of these seemingly perfect laws exist for only two reasons.

The first case is to protect the interests of individuals or companies in the early stages of development.

The second case is to protect the interests of large capital organizations.

The protection of capital forces in the early stage of development is to ensure that the capital society will always have fresh blood influx, stimulate the market, and find new business opportunities.

And more, it is for the better plundering of large capital organizations.

Those who made these statutes were those of the past, and Lynch was a newcomer.

The legal provisions made by people in the past must be more in favor of them. In the face of such a general trend, even Lynch has to follow these rules of the game.

He wants to change, but is powerless. He cannot change the current rules and regulations of capital society through the power of one person.

But Mr. Truman can, once a powerful president's cabinet who has won the war stands up, he is still a president who is wary of capital, which is not a good thing for the capitalists.

Mr. Truman will not change the nature of the federation as a capitalist society, but he will target those capitalists, and this can just make a hole in the fortress built by the traditional capital forces for Lynch!

This is the reason to support Mr. Truman, as long as this hole is torn open, everything will be different!

After the two separated, Mr. Trueman quickly found Peleus and told him about his conversation with Lynch.

He and Peleus are also close, and although they don't appear to be in constant contact as close friends, the relationship doesn't cool.

This is also a unique feeling of soldiers. Usually it seems to be very ordinary, but when there is a need, everyone is very serious.

Peleus was also surprised when Mr. Truman planned to run for the next president, but then he was happy, even excited!

The outbreak of war, and the rise of a president who can represent the interests of the military, even a fool knows what this means to the military!

It only took less than half an hour, almost all the top military officials knew about this, and they also unified their attitudes—

Unconditional support for Mr. Truman's victory!
