Chapter 1669: give everyone what they want

Chapter 1668 Give everyone what they want

Mr. Truman suffers from no one to support him, so that now to him, the whole world seems to be standing against him.

Except for the working class.

But now he dares not give the news to the working class completely, because once he does, maybe the working class will think that this is their only way to defeat capital!

They will unite workers' unions, and other forces that can be united, to fight a "war" against the capitalists.

Even if the working class wins in the end, Mr. Trueman will not win!

Only if he wins first will he be able to achieve an overall victory.

There is more than one president who has been impeached because of promoting a certain policy in federal history!

Use the position of the president to exchange the implementation of a policy?

He doesn't think he's gotten there yet!

But until he finds a way, he's lost in an island!

Now it seems that the only one who can find a direction for him may be Lynch.

Faced with Mr. Trueman's doubts and the answers he was longing for, Lynch didn't tell him anything directly, but asked a question instead.

"What do you think is a political struggle?"

In a word, Mr. Truman fell into contemplation again.

In fact, for the entire federal environment, the intensity of the political struggle is not obvious.

This is not like in the Middle Ages, nobles or politicians fought to the death for a certain "idea", "political school" or "a certain academic doctrine" who was more advanced.

Here, only religious struggles are fought to the death, not all politics, even in feudal society.

Compromise and transaction are the core of politics. Politics has never been about "moving forward without retreating", so after Lynch asked this question, Mr. Trueman suddenly didn't know how to answer it.

If you say the political struggle is tragic...

But practically anyone in Congress will do anything against their own political stance at any time, they're like unscrupulous women's watches, saying "I love you" while taking off their pants for other guests .

But you want to say that the political struggle is not tragic...

There have been several presidents who have been impeached, and it seems that when it is really sharp, it is quite tragic.

A large number of congressmen will be sacked, and the president and governor will not be better off.

He didn't know how to accurately summarize the politics of the Federation, and naturally he couldn't get the real answer——

Politics, what is it? !

He shook his head and looked at Lynch, "Every one of us is working hard for our own ideals. Maybe most people's ideas are good. We are all for this country to become stronger."

"In my opinion, this is politics, our politics!"

Lynch smiled euphemistically, "Actually, politics is very simple, it is to unite as many people as possible and let more people support you."

After waiting for a while, Lynch did not continue to say anything. Mr. Trueman couldn't help asking, "Is it that simple?"

Lynch nodded slightly, "Is it simple?"

Mr. Trueman, who began to think seriously, gradually felt that this was a very simple answer, but the things mapped out by the answer were not so simple.

If there were really a lot of people supporting him, then he wouldn't be sitting here discussing with Lynch how to solve the blockages of those congressmen and capitalists!

After a while, he sighed, "It's easy to understand, it's easy to say, but hard to do."

"No one can get the majority to support them all the time..."

Lynch didn't wait for him to finish, then continued, "Unless he can give a reason for most people to support him."

"And that's why we're sitting here today talking about these things."

He straightened his sitting posture a little, "Actually, in my opinion, it is not that difficult to implement the social security system reform plan."

"We just give the MPs what they want, the capitalists what they want, and they'll give us what they want."

Mr. Truman also entered the state, "What do they want?"

"It's nothing more than wealth, and more power."

"You can say they're greedy, but you don't satisfy their minimum greed and they're going to be a hindrance to you from realizing your ideas."

"You need their support, you need to send these signals!"

It was actually a very uncomfortable conversation, especially for Mr. Trueman.

He clearly holds the power, and he is still the power blessed by the state of war. The entire Federation is from top to bottom, and at this moment must unconditionally obey his orders.

However, he still has a lot of things he can't do.

Very frustrating.

Just like when he was standing in the office that year, his former boss, the former federal president, told him that he could go on vacation, his heart was full of anger and helplessness.

In the Commonwealth, politicians actually feel that way a lot of the time.

They clearly control the life and death of many people and many enterprises, but they still cannot achieve absolute independence and detachment.

Because there are still many people, many things, and a lot of money, which can make them have to bow their heads and have to follow the so-called rules of the game.

Mr. Truman leaned deeply on the sofa, which was a little less... elegant, but his sitting position gave him a very comfortable and safe feeling, which he lacked now.

"Go on, Lynch, let me see how vulnerable I am!"

"Also let me see how greedy those people are!"

He said as if thinking of something, "Actually, you are also one of the capitalists, right?"

When Lynch heard this question, he couldn't help laughing. He laughed so much that he almost burst into tears, and he started to cover his stomach.

His hilarious laughter made Mr. Trueman puzzled. "Is there anything funny I said?"

"Why are you smiling like this?"

Perhaps because he was satisfied with his laugh, Lynch's laughter gradually subsided. Compared with his sudden burst of laughter, the speed of this convergence will obviously be slower.

"Your appearance reminds me of a kid who lost a fight!"

Mr. Truman was stunned for a while. He recalled what he said just now, and gradually he couldn't help but laugh.

The child who lost the fight showed his weakness, but also showed his ferocity!

But no matter what, he still lost!

He was like losing his temper, maybe it was just unintentional, maybe it was deliberate, and he wanted to prove that his failure was not because he was weak!

When he said that Lynch was also one of the capitalists, he actually had such a mentality. He lost, but he was stubborn, and even hoped to remind Lynch in a way that might be a joke, not to go too far.

But he is a loser after all, a loser!

Realizing that he was a little embarrassed, Mr. Truman smiled a little embarrassedly, "I'm a little gaffe at today's hearing, you have to forget about this!"

Lynch nodded yes, "I will."

"You have to promise!", Mr. Trueman added.

"I promise!"

In fact, what they said and what they wanted to express were not the same thing, but they both knew what each other wanted to express, and completed the exchange of opinions in a tacit way.

Lynch took a cigarette out of his pocket and lit one for himself, "We can take some things apart."

"You want to promote the reform of the security fund. In fact, it is the bottom of the society that can really benefit from it!"

Mr. Trueman nodded, and Lynch continued, "Then we will separate the audiences of society, some who can enjoy the benefits of the policy."

"Then others, push them to the capital market, like the middle class and above."

"At the same time, the capital market is coveting the entire social security system. You know, the federal government's social security funds are not actually collected much, but even so, there are tens of billions of dollars every year."

"They want to be able to get a piece of the pie, and we can satisfy them appropriately."

"In terms of medical insurance, special medicines and some optional contents of commercial medical care have been added, and some contents have also been added in terms of pensions."

"We can even involve the local government and the enterprise itself. For example, employees pay another share of money to the enterprise, and when they retire, the enterprise pays the employee's expenses in one lump sum or in installments, or..."

"You know, we can throw some of the burden on the business."

Although Lynch didn't say it in detail, Mr. Trueman had already drawn a general outline in his mind.

He frowned. "If we open up the social security system to capital and allow them to join in, what if we can't pay?"

"We cannot guarantee that all will be as responsible as we are..."

"That's how we persuaded Congress," Lynch said with a smile. "We pushed for a standing committee to oversee the process of corporate participation in Social Security."

"At the same time, we can also require all participating companies to give a certain margin, and adjust the margin to a certain extent with the size of the scale."

"Look, what the capitalists want, they get."

"The respect and power that MPs want, they have."

"They've got so much more than they can get now~lightnovelpub.net~they have a reason to be on your side!"

Mr. Truman asked again, "What about ordinary people?"

"They are the least able to resist risk group of people, because we promote this policy, let them increase so much risk for nothing!"

When he said these words, at least his face was righteous.

Sometimes Lynch is very emotional, because there are always some idealistic idiots in this world.

It's good that they don't get power. After getting power, it's hard to say whether it's a good thing or a bad thing for the world!

After a moment of silence, he replied, "We can warn people of the risk!"

"Mr. President, nothing in this world is absolutely free of risk."

"This is the price of shortening the payment guarantee period!"
