American TV series

There was still plenty of time, and Sean had become very familiar with the Bu family and his son, especially after the business contacts between the two parties became more and more intimate, and they became like a family.

Therefore, there is no need to worry about many things to say. As we chatted, we talked about the future world situation.

"I'm not saying that the American system is bad, but no system in this world is perfect. It always has some shortcomings." Sean took a sip of coffee and talked eloquently: "Of course, I still like it.

The American system, after all, I am a capitalist, this is capitalism, and only here can my interests be best protected, right?

"But even so, it doesn't stop me from being optimistic about the future of the United States."

"Hey, you don't think so highly of the United States?" Xiao Bu saw his father's frown and poked Sean.

"There is a saying in China that 'you don't know the true face of Mount Lu just because you are in this mountain.' It means that just because we are in it, we cannot see clearly what we are in from a higher and other perspective.

Environment, after all, our sight can only see this thing directly in front of us." Sean shrugged.

"The system of multi-party governance will inevitably lead to mutual strife. This is not a question of right or wrong. As the Xiang Party, after defeating the Donkey Party, you can inherit their political strategies without reservation. Chapter 519: Lao Bu's Background Strategy

?"

Old Bu pursed his lips and shook his head. That's impossible. Every party has its own interests, every state has its own interests, and every group has its own interests.

Capitalists who support the Xiang Party must seek rewards. They need policy inclinations. Otherwise, why should they support the Xiang Party?

The pie in the hands of the government is only so big, and if you get a bigger piece, I will get a smaller piece. The Elephant Party can only cut off the interests of those groups that do not support them to make up for their own people.

Not to mention making a big cake, he is already No. 1 in the world, and he already has the biggest cake in his hands.

It’s always the people behind who talk about making the cake bigger.

"Our policies have no continuity. What will happen if the president changes every four years?" Sean gestured: "The first two years are used to overthrow the predecessor's policies, and the next two years are used to implement new policies, and then the president is changed, and then again

Overthrow it, then introduce new policies, and the cycle is endless."

"I don't see what America has gained except a waste of time and money!"

"We, who are at the top, have made no progress and are losing blood in the internal fighting, while those behind are chasing closely. I said that we will be surpassed in 70 years. This is a conservative estimate."

"Do you think the north can catch up with us soon?" Old Bu asked with a frown.

"North?" Sean smiled, turned to look at Xiao Bu, and raised his hand to signal Xiao Bu.

"We often talk about world power. What are the necessary conditions to become a world power?"

Xiaobu said almost without thinking: "A huge population base, a huge land area, and rich natural resources are the necessary conditions for becoming a big country."

"What countries have these conditions?" Sean asked again

"The United States, the Soviet Union, China, Asan, Brazil..." As he spoke, Xiao Bu hesitated for a moment, and then added: "Well, the rest of Canada has enough land area and natural resources, but the population is too small, and the land

Australia has the same problem. Argentina has a large land area and decent resources, but its population is not enough. South Africa has the same problem, and other countries are not sufficient."

"On the other hand, if Europe can really unite, it will be able to compete with us immediately."

"Europe has not been unified for thousands of years. As long as the British are here, they will never be able to unite." Sean waved his hands with regret.

The three of them looked at each other and laughed. Britain is the best ally of the United States, bar none.

After laughing, Sean continued: "Brazil is not a big threat. Their system is of the same origin as the United States. They face the same problems as us. The engine is not good. The current international situation is not the same as it was more than 200 years ago. It will be difficult for them to catch up.

It’s going to be very, very big.”

"There is no strong government under this situation..." Sean shook his head and expressed his disapproval.

"As San said, their system is neither fish nor fowl. It is said to be democratic and free, but the caste system in the country is deeply entrenched and controls the upward path. The domestic conflicts are appalling and the motivation for upward mobility is seriously lacking. However, it has a profound foundation and can still catch up."

"So, the only ones who can really compete with us are the Soviet Union and the Chinese." Sean concluded.

"I think it should be called Russia." Xiao Bu joked with a smile.

"Well, there's no problem with Russia, it's just that it's still a little small. If the population doubles, the population is still a little small. If the population doesn't double, it'll be great." Sean nodded and continued: "There is a real threat.

They are still Chinese, not one of them."

"Their system is completely different from ours. I think you all know how strong the government's control is and how good the policy continuity is. This is far more than that of the United States. This makes it difficult for their development to be interrupted.

The driving force that can burst out is extremely terrifying, just like us after the Civil War."

"Of course, we still have similarities, that is, the upward channels. Whether it is them or us, the upward channels are very open, which greatly alleviates domestic conflicts."

Xiao Bu tilted his head and looked at Sean, "What do you mean, do you prefer their system?"

"If from an objective point of view, I am not a capitalist, then I have a better view of their system. The end of the universe is civil servants. I think a political family like yours should also think this way." Sean picked a pick.

brow.

The Bu family and his son pursed their lips and shook their heads and laughed. Well, what Sean said was right. The first thing after Lao Bu came to power was to visit China.

After chatting for a while, the topic was brought back by Lao Bra. The problems he faces now are financial problems, current problems, future problems, high pressure from mid-term elections, etc.

He needs Sean, a man who can make money, to give him some advice.

"The fight against YLK is definitely necessary, but it cannot be in vain. You know, during this period I was in Saudi Arabia and had contact with Jabir III for a while. The Arab world was very dissatisfied with Sha Damu's actions. This guy is actually crazy.

I have the idea of ​​​​attacking Saudi Arabia." Sean smiled and said: "That's what I mean." This is the will.

"We have made a posture of wanting to fight against YLK, such as at the United Nations. At the same time, some difficulties have emerged. There is no money. Well, it is best not for us to do this. I think the more active you are here, the less likely it is for the Donkey Party.

They will object immediately."

"At that time, the issue of financial difficulties will be obvious."

"Then what?" Old Bu had some ideas in his mind, but he didn't fully understand them.

"Then I asked the TV station to put on a debate show. With the White House in trouble and financial problems, it won't be able to spend so much money to fight this war for the Arabs for a while." Sean stretched out his hand and knocked on the table, "We want to

Sell ​​out the theory that this war is for the Arab world."

"At that time, I will ask the TV station to solicit response strategies from the American people. Finally, the idea of ​​issuing a war bond to the Arab world will be raised." Sean blinked.

"I understand!" Old Bu slapped Xiao Bu's thigh suddenly, causing Xiao Bu's mouth to twitch. "Then the government saw public opinion and accepted it. When the time comes, the Arabs will pay for this expenditure."

"Of course, Silly Damu is invading Kuwait and threatening Saudi Arabia. It has nothing to do with the American people. Why should we spend the American people's money and the lives of American soldiers to help them fight? That is irresponsible to the American people.

!" Sean said matter-of-factly.

"But..." Old Bu frowned, "Kuwait can't afford so much money. Even if Saudi Arabia is added, if the US military moves, the cost of the war may be hundreds of billions or more. Even if they have money, they may not be willing.

So much." Sean smashed his mouth,

"One hundred million..." Fahd may not be willing to pay, this is really too much.

"If we don't get out, we'll fight!" Sean's face suddenly turned stern, "Damn it, it's not us that Silly Damu is threatening. If it doesn't work, just make a gesture of giving up!"

"Siodamu will show kindness when the time comes."

"If it doesn't work, force Saudi Arabia and Kuwait to sell out YLK's interests. Anyway, the money

You must give enough!"

"This is a war bond, and it does not mean that it will not be repaid. When the time comes, I will arrange for people to hold a *** demonstration and resolutely resist the government using taxpayers' money to fight other people's wars."

Sean didn't know how the White House made deals with the Arabs in his previous life, so he just killed the YLK people. However, Lao Bu was indeed dragged down by the war and eventually won the YLK war, but lost the election.

For his own sake, Sean couldn't let something like this happen again.

After chatting for a while and refining the details, Sean left, but before leaving, he said to Lao Bu: "Even if you get this money, it will only let the government breathe a sigh of relief, but it will not actually solve the economic problem."

Question, so, what other plans do you have.”

Old Bu spread his hands, widened his eyes, and looked at Sean innocently.

Sean raised his butt and sat down again, "You can't do this."

"I really have no choice." Old Bu said with a bitter smile.

"I remember you guys were talking about NAFTA," Sean asked.

The North American Free Trade Agreement was signed by Mexico and the United States. It was signed by Canada and the United States to open up free trade in North America and strengthen trade between the three countries. It has far-reaching influence and completely abolished the relationship between Canada and Canada.

The last glimmer of hope for the great rise.

"This is what the Donkey Party is pushing." Old Bu frowned and said.

"Fake." Sean cursed and frowned at Lao Bu, "Uncle, you have to understand that you are the president, not just the leader of the Elephant Party. You should consider how to better hold the position of president.

Position, rather than considering the opposition between the two parties in everything!"

This is the crux of American politics! "But I am indeed the leader of the Elephant Party, I..."

"Okay!" Sean raised his hand and interrupted Lao Bu, "If the economic problems are not fundamentally changed, you will definitely not survive the 1992 general election. By then, you will no longer be the leader of the Elephant Party!"

"You only have one year and two months left. During this period, you must achieve results, at least results that can be reported to the American people!!" Sean said very harshly.

Old Boo didn't say anything. He stared at Sean. It was difficult for him to turn around for a while.

Xiaobu huddled in a corner and silently looked at the two people who were glaring at each other, not daring to interrupt at all.

"Uncle Bush, first of all, do you agree? I am a friend of the Bush family and I have no interest in this matter!" Sean said in a slightly gentle tone.

Old Bu nodded, it was true. "I wish the Bush family well, and I hope you can sit in this position for a longer time. This is only good for me, not bad."

Old Bu nodded again and his expression completely relaxed.

"Only I truly stand with Bush. Only I truly stand with my family and you, not any party."

"I know, I'm sorry, I just..." Old Bu took a breath and said a little embarrassed.

"Correct advice often doesn't sound so good, I understand that." Sean smiled Chapter 519

Shrugging, "My suggestion is that you can use this matter to make some political exchanges with the Donkey Party, and then quickly promote the implementation of this matter. This can stimulate the US economy, no matter who gets the greater benefit, but

You are the president, and the credit must ultimately be attributed to you."

"For example?" Old Bu frowned. The Xiang Party wanted a lot of things, but the Donkey Party might not be willing.

"For example, cutting some government expenditures, expanding taxpayer coverage, taxing Americans living overseas, and overseas companies must also tax." Sean said casually.

Old Boo leaned back and looked at Sean with shock written all over him. Taxing overseas Americans and companies is very capitalist!

There must be a place for you on the street lights! "What's the point of this, long-arm jurisdiction? Isn't it because these Americans are domineering abroad because they are backed by the powerful United States? There is no reason in the world to just enjoy without paying. Instead of letting them

If you give taxes to other countries, it would be better to give them to the United States!"

"After all, we are just a few people and can't make any waves!

"

"The increase in fiscal revenue will benefit both the Donkey Party and the Elephant Party!"

Old Boo blinked, looked at Sean, and then at Boo, "How many Americans are working abroad?" How many Americans are working abroad?

Sean shrugged, "I don't know, there are a lot of them anyway, and those who can work abroad earn a lot, at least middle class."

Old Bu touched his chin. He couldn't say that what Sean said was unreasonable. They did enjoy the benefits brought by the United States, but they did not make any contribution to the United States.

"Most of your companies are overseas, right? Have you ever thought about yourself?" Old Bu looked Sean up and down.

"In order to solve the predicament Uncle Bush encountered and to make the United States stronger, I am willing to pay more taxes." Sean looked determined. At this moment, Sean seemed to be glowing with light.

Lao Bu: "..." Really? I don't believe it! Damn it, when did the sentiments of capitalists become so noble?

Sean looked serious. He would never pay less than a 519 single title subdivision tax for those businesses that wandered on the edge of gray.

As for formal businesses, not to mention that some of them are registered abroad. Even if the place of registration is in the United States, most of the employees are Americans and they are exempt from tax.

At the very least, taxes can be avoided by reducing profits through benefit transfer.

You can't pay much more taxes. And the more taxes you pay, the more the government will stand by you when something goes wrong. It's just like protection money.
