Blackstone Code

Chapter 1906: report

There is such a group of social bottom in the federation.

They are poor, but they are crazy about having children and even adopting children.

Because these children can go to work as long as they are ten years old.

There are some enterprises, or less formal workshops, that eight or nine-year-old children dare to use.

Once the "Child Law Amendment" is implemented, at least one to two million or even more child laborers will return home.

Those parents and adoptive parents who were lying in bed and eating the proceeds of these child labors will face a rough and difficult life in their lives!

They need to go to work by themselves, and they also need to support these children at home, which is not an easy task.

People's laziness has inertia. Once they start to be lazy, it is not an easy task to make them stop!

In addition, there are some welfare homes and orphanages, which are also groups that use child labor for profit.

When Mr. Truman finished talking about his ideas, Lynch did not give positive feedback and asked a question instead.

"Have you considered that once these children lose their ability to work, they are likely to be abandoned, or forced to use more dire methods to earn wealth for their guardians?"

Mr. Truman's eyes were already a little confused, "For example...?"

Hiccup, very strong alcohol.

"Begging, theft, gangsters and even pornography, think of Paradise Island."

Mr. Truman froze for a moment, the misty things in his eyes were fading rapidly, he stood up a little unsteadily, "Sorry, I'm going to wash my face."

and leave.

After about a few minutes, he not only washed his face, but also washed his hair before walking back.

Lynch's words kept echoing in his mind, and he realized that he might have thought things too simply.

Leaving aside the discussion of begging, using children to do criminal things has almost become a semi-public practice in the Federation.

Because when children are on trial, the sentencing standard will be lighter, and so will the punishment standard.

To put it simply, the cost of children's crimes is less and the benefits are higher, which is enough to make many people pour into this field.

There are some people like this in the Federation. They form child gangs and use their identities as children to commit crimes and even murder.

Among the many criminals in the Commonwealth, child gang criminals are not new.

Even because children are more deceitful, their criminal behavior can often be easily succeeded.

Not to mention, there is a precedent for Bliss Island.

This world is beautiful, but there are always some scumbags living and polluting the air!

"It seems that we still need some supplementary clauses!", Mr. Truman did not consider giving up the idea of ​​promoting the "Children's Law Amendment Act".

He has to find some effective support to **** the implementation of this amendment.

Lynch glanced at Joanna who had already left the meeting, "You can ask her and some other charities to stand up, and let's talk about the dangers of child labor first."

"The danger to the kids, the danger to the social structure, and then before you push it into implementation, give people a period of acceptance."

"Increase penalties for child laborers, lower penalties for child labor guardians, and leave them alone if necessary..."

Mr. Truman raised his hand, "Why give up?"

"If they didn't throw their children in factories, there would be no child labor!"

"And if they abuse their own children so much, shouldn't they be punished more severely?"

Lynch asked directly, "Have you considered, if you increase the punishment for child labor guardians, there will be a possibility."

"When they realized that they might be arrested, would they avoid punishment by hurting those children?"

It was a sharp angle, and Mr. Truman couldn't refute it. He even thought that some people might kill children to cover up these facts!

As long as the punishment is severe enough, for the sake of freedom and avoiding punishment, there will definitely be people who will do it insanely!

Especially those adoptive parents who have adopted children from welfare agencies, as well as welfare homes, orphanages themselves.

"What we have to do is not to make the living environment of these children more severe, so we only need to start with the employers, and that is enough."

"No one employs children, and if there is no market for child labor, there will be no more child labor..."

"At the same time, we need to provide more social subsidies to families with multiple children, give them hope, and make them willing to raise their children instead of abandoning them!"

"The Great Era of Rebirth"

The two chatted for a long time, during which Lynch also talked about some situations, such as the meeting between him and Frank.

He didn't hide it from Mr. Truman. As the most powerful president of the Federation, he wanted to know these things that were not very confidential. It was not that complicated.

Lynch's confession pleases Mr. Truman, because it shows that they are still one.

"What do you think?", he asked Lynch, directly.

Lynch's answer was equally straightforward, "Think of ways to weaken their political influence. The people of the Federation don't have a good impression of capitalists. We can use all factors that are beneficial to us to win this battle!"

Mr. Truman's mind turned quickly, alcohol made his thinking more active, "Your target is the senators who are under investigation in Congress?"

If capital wants to become political influence, it must have a political spokesperson.

Members of Congress are the political spokespersons of those capitalists, and they have nothing to hide!

Lynch was also polite, and nodded directly, "Instead of letting these people hold important positions, it's better for me to hold them in my hands."

"At least it will not be so easy for them to use Congress to abolish the amendments to certain bills in the future."

The inheritance and continuation of the policy is very important, which hits Mr. Truman's heart.

After thinking about it, he finally nodded, "I won't object."

He knows that many of the policies he is promoting now make those capitalists very dissatisfied with him, and provoking his relationship with Lynch is the most obvious symptom.

Now he has unlimited power in his hand, he can do whatever he wants.

What about later?

One day he will leave this position. When he leaves, Congress will directly overturn all the decisions he has made, so what is the point of all his efforts during his tenure?

He has to think about it for the future, and Lynch's idea is a good choice.

only…

Lynch did not urge him to make a decision. He believed that Mr. Truman could figure it out by himself.

Because by his side, I am the only one who is still standing by his side and helping him!

Neither man spoke on the subject afterwards, and Mr Truman told Lynch, as he was about to leave, the eastern redevelopment of Nagalil's new federation.

Catherine may be elected as the new governor to take office in Nagalil!

This news is regarded as a reward for Lynch's "loyalty" and an affirmation of what he has done.

After Lynch simply expressed his thanks verbally, he left.

When he got home before ten o'clock at night, he called Catherine directly.

Catherine was sitting behind a desk in the study working on some papers.

Compared with the governor, the mayor's work is detailed and specific at the same time.

A government official at the level of the governor can also emphasize adjustment control at the macro level.

For example, when they think that the employment rate is low, they can issue some more general policies to encourage capitalists to build more factories and increase the social employment rate.

But at the level of mayor, she can't be general, but must be detailed.

How to do it first, how to do it later, and then what kind of results to achieve, there must be an accurate plan, not just a macro-level expression to increase job opportunities.

So most mayors, who want to do a good job, work late.

She was looking at an application for natural resource exploitation, and some foreign funds wanted to land in her city.

Considering the new policies and regulations promulgated by the Presidential Palace, only the establishment of real industries can get the tax reduction and exemption of departure tax, so most foreign investors start businesses in various places.

The size of the enterprise, the number of jobs, and the benefits will be directly reflected in the departure tax.

Everyone takes this matter very seriously.

Some people invest and build factories in a serious way, but there are also some people who want to take advantage of it.

She rubbed her old neck and leaned her head back on the chair back, "The conditions they proposed are very attractive, but I don't think they should be approved."

"The extraction of natural resources is highly polluting and the risks are high."

"Their core interests are not in this regard, and they don't care so much about safe construction."

"Whether it caused serious pollution or a major safety accident, we all have to bear the same responsibility!"

The professors in the journalism department look a little younger than they used to, and power is the most wonderful little magic pill that can change a lot of things.

Temperament, momentum, including appearance.

After Catherine came to power, the journalism professor successfully became a city councilor, which is also considered to have set foot on the political arena.

She nodded, with a sad face on her face, "But if their mining requirements are not approved, it will be difficult for the funds to land locally."

"Once they leave, it may cause dissatisfaction among some people!"

These foreign capitals are very cunning~ lightnovelpub.net~ The matter of landing has not yet been implemented, so they start to hype in advance.

What is to provide jobs for 5,000 people, what is to build a living area around the core industry...

They put pressure on City Hall by painting the prospect beautifully.

Capital is never clean, and from the first second it came into this world, it exudes a disgusting stench!

Although the mayor holds real power, he is still elected by the citizens in the final analysis.

If this offends these ignorant citizens and loses the next mayoral election, it will become very troublesome.

Catherine also had a headache.

When the two were thinking about how to solve this problem, the phone on Catherine's desk rang suddenly.

This startled both women!

After she picked up the phone, her serious expression gradually turned into a smile...
