Reborn as a police officer in South Africa

Chapter 2687 If I can’t handle it, I’ll handle my son.

The economic liberalism of a democratic country, translated into classical Chinese, means that those who live on salary are not allowed to compete with the people, and those who receive the big are not allowed to take the small.

The general meaning is that the country should not compete with private individuals for profit, but should keep wealth among the people.

Keeping wealth among the people is naturally good in itself, and federal governments at all levels in southern Africa do the same thing, but it has changed in the United States.

What Henry Ford is most proud of is that he created the first middle class in the United States and laid the social foundation of the spindle structure of the United States. As a result, the United States has become a place where many people's dreams can come true, and the U.S. government has officially launched

The concept of the American Dream attracts immigrants from all over the world.

But in fact, the middle class is a pseudo-concept, just higher-level wage earners. The real masters of the United States are the Wall Street tycoons. Free trade has not made all Americans rich, but only made some people rich. Rather than hiding wealth among the people, it is better to

It is said that the riches are in the Hebrews.

Rock didn't have much hope for Truman. What Roosevelt couldn't do was even less possible for Truman. However, the United States has not fallen to a hopeless level yet. Rock does not want the United States to be defeated by the Wall Street group.

The greedy tycoon leads into the abyss.

"The Manhattan Project is a great plan, and your government has shown extraordinary organizational capabilities, so you are fully capable of doing better, so as not to shame the entire country for the selfish desires of a small group." Rock said to the United States.

Understanding is complicated, just like the American soldier.

In Manila, American soldiers were indeed poorly disciplined, and their performance in Europe was not good either. Strictly speaking, they were no better than the Germans.

However, on the issue of discipline, only the Federal Government of Southern Africa in the world has restraints on the Southern African Expeditionary Force. Almost all other countries, including allies, have not imposed too strict restraints on discipline, even for the sake of encouragement.

Morale, the deliberate guidance of the army, amplifies the dark side of human nature.

This is not surprising. People who have enough food and clothing know etiquette, and people who have enough food and clothing know etiquette. In old capitalist countries such as Britain and France, only a small number of people have become rich. The vast majority of British and French people are living in dire straits and cannot use them.

Too high moral standards are required of them.

Even the United Kingdom and France have this kind of virtue. You can imagine this in the United States, which has a history of only a hundred years.

Although Americans' moral standards are not high, they were still very brave when fighting the German and Japanese troops.

Think of those torpedo pilots who launched attacks on Japanese warships one after another.

There are also those American soldiers who braved artillery fire to charge towards the Liege Fortress.

Regardless of whether they passively joined the army or whether they really joined the war with the mentality of saving the world, they did make a huge contribution to this war.

Compared with those American soldiers, the so-called upper-class people on Wall Street who were willing to provoke two world wars for profits are even more disgusting.

"The Manhattan Project is just a special product of a special period.

It is unsustainable in the United States." Truman didn't like the Manhattan Project. He didn't even know about it when he was vice president. How could he like it?

"Think about how President Roosevelt led the United States to defeat the Great Depression -" Rock can only do this, and how much Truman can understand is his own business.

The situation that Truman faces now is not much better than when Roosevelt first came to power.

Although the United States was in deep economic crisis when Roosevelt came to power, Roosevelt had the support of the entire United States. All Americans had high expectations for Roosevelt. Wall Street tycoons also hoped that Roosevelt could lead the United States out of the Great Depression so that they could continue to make money.

Although the economic crisis has not yet broken out in the United States, the economic crisis is already brewing and may be detonated at any time.

Truman did not have the same support as Roosevelt. He not only faced provocations from the opposition parties, but also faced pressure from within the Democratic Party. Even political amateurs like MacArthur were eager to move on Truman's position. You can imagine how much pressure Truman was under.

"The economic crisis is inevitable. This time it may be as bad as the Great Depression. Do you have any specific response plans?" Truman came to southern Africa this time, largely because he wanted to learn from Rock.

Roosevelt referred to the methods of southern Africa to lead the United States out of the Great Depression. Naturally, Truman also followed the same example. Why not refer to the existing experience.

"It won't be that serious -" Rock doesn't think this economic crisis is comparable to the Great Depression.

This issue also needs to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.

For the United States, the damage caused by this economic crisis is no less than that of the Great Depression.

Southern Africa began to adjust its economy more than two years ago to minimize the negative impact of the economic crisis.

Taking into account the friendly relations between Southern Africa and European countries, the federal government of Southern Africa will devote more energy to the post-war reconstruction of European countries, so that Southern Africa will not suffer too much in the subsequent economic crisis.

A loss may turn out to be a blessing in disguise.

Although it may sound unethical to base one's own happiness on the pain of others, but a dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist, and Roque will not be lenient on this issue.

Of course, being soft does not mean that you are not soft when it comes to killing European countries, but it is that you are not soft when it comes to aid.

Asking is a win-win situation.

"I'm not being alarmist. The situation in southern Africa may be better than that in the United States. In the United States, the economic crisis has actually begun." Truman was anxious. This was a big test for him.

With the end of the war, European countries' demand for military orders dropped sharply, and many undelivered orders were even directly canceled, causing huge losses to related American companies.

Although the deposit can make up for the loss of the order to a certain extent, the goods that have been produced will definitely lose money.

In the past, you didn't have to worry about placing an order in the military industry. You could even earn two copies of the deposit. Anyway, the shelf life was often several decades, so you didn't have to worry about the product expiring.

Two world wars completely devastated Europe. For a long time, no country would talk about war lightly. Who would sell the goods produced?

The key is not the goods that have been produced, but the pessimism about the future that has led to a large number of companies laying off employees, workers losing their jobs, and losing their income and being unable to consume. This is the big problem.

Therefore, when Truman came to southern Africa this time, the two purposes did not conflict. Aiding in the construction of Europe and economic transformation were fundamentally the same thing. As long as Roark agreed to be consistent with the United States, it would be Truman's greatest political achievement.

Rock will definitely not let go.

It’s still the same old problem. The cake is only so big. If Southern Africa wants to cut an extra piece, the Americans won’t be able to get enough. Who would think it’s too much money?

Therefore, Rock tried every means to provoke conflicts between the U.S. government and U.S. private enterprises. This is not considered taking advantage of the situation, but at best adding insult to injury.

"I remember that economists called for attention to this issue in newspapers two years ago. Have you never paid attention to it?" Roque said he was not very concerned.

Roque is the Prime Minister of Southern Africa. What does the life and death of Americans have to do with Roque?

As for economists and newspapers—

When Rock was under pressure to demand corporate transformation, he must have spread the word through different channels to build momentum. At this time, economists have to give full play to their role. Whether you listen or not is one thing, and whether you speak or not is another.

If the federal government of Southern Africa doesn’t even say hello to those who accuse them of abuse without teaching them, then the relevant supporting companies will be in trouble.

Rock first let economists and newspapers get the news, and smart people will naturally know what to do next.

Don't worry about unsmart guys. The money you earn through luck will eventually be lost due to speculation. Many people go bankrupt in the market every day. Some people are unlucky, and some people just deserve it.

"You can't ask companies to reduce profits for unknown risks when things are going well. This is against the laws of economics." Truman had no choice. It was unrealistic to ask American entrepreneurs to be rational.

Some companies are just about making quick money, and we cannot ask them to have too long-term plans. When business is good, they rush in, and when business is bad, they simply close down. Whether workers are unemployed or not has nothing to do with them.

Roque himself is the largest arms dealer in southern Africa. His personal interests are deeply bound to the interests of the federal government, and both prosper and suffer. The U.S. arms dealers will not transform early because of the possible economic crisis, but Roque can accept the short-term.

Profits have declined over time, which is the biggest difference between the two countries.

To put it bluntly, even if Rock was unprepared at the beginning, he can now make no money in a short period of time, train workers for reemployment, and renovate the factory. Rock can afford to accompany him.

Is it possible to prevent American businessmen from making money? That would be even worse than killing them.

Therefore, those who advocate a free economy are either stupid or have ulterior motives.

Rock is busy with affairs and cannot accompany Truman all day long. Truman will not keep an eye on Rock all day long. He has more important goals.

Roque said a long time ago that he would retire when the world war is over. Now he has actually entered retirement early and is just waiting for the general election in southern Africa.

Roque has confirmed that he will not participate in the general election, and there is no nomination within the party. Gavin is running on behalf of the Liberal Party.

There were almost no disturbances in the primary election within the Liberal Party. As everyone predicted, the Liberal Party held only one vote and determined that Gavin would represent the Liberal Party in the general election.

Gavin's opponent is also very weak, which is inseparable from the strength of the Liberal Party. If nothing goes wrong, Gavin will be elected with an absolute advantage, just like Thomas Dewey.

In this case, Roark is naturally not Truman's only target, Gavin is Truman's key target.

Gavin is also very busy now. The Southern African general election has been determined to be held at the end of the year. The new prime minister will officially take office on January 1 next year. Gavin is not busy canvassing votes, but busy organizing Southern African companies to actively participate in Europe.

During the reconstruction, his current official position is first member of the European Construction Committee.

Interestingly, the European Construction Committee is not a newly established organization, but has a long history of more than 20 years -

This is really not a joke. Looking at the history of southern Africa, 20 years is already a long time.

The European Construction Commission was established in 1920, and its first first committee member was none other than Roque, who was the commander-in-chief of the Southern African Expeditionary Force at that time.

What Gavin is doing now is the same as Rock was doing back then. This is a very influential position, and no one except Gavin is capable of taking it.

Basically, all large-scale enterprises in southern Africa are controlled by three families. Gavin is related to all three families and has the right to inherit by blood, so he is naturally the best choice for this position.

The deadline has not yet reached, but more than 10,000 southern African companies have signed up to participate in the reconstruction of Europe. From this perspective, Gavin has already exercised the power of the Prime Minister of Southern Africa in advance.

"Of course we welcome American companies to actively participate in the reconstruction of Europe. In fact, many of our companies have maintained close relationships with American companies over the years, which has become the best link between our two countries," Gavin said.

Truman was received at the headquarters of the European Construction Commission, which was neither serious nor disrespectful.

The headquarters of the European Construction Committee is opposite the Governor's Palace in the Palace of Justice. Compared with the Governor's Palace, the building where the European Construction Committee is located is not grand and seriously inconsistent with its strength. It is just an inconspicuous three-story building.

It was this three-story building that aroused Truman's strong interest.

Truman's interest was certainly not in architecture but in the way the European Construction Commission worked.

"Our job is very simple. Uu Reading organizes Southern African companies to actively participate in Europe's post-war reconstruction. We will provide European countries with all the resources needed for reconstruction, so companies do their best, even if it is only a trivial part. We

He will also give him enough attention." Compared with the cunning Roark, Gavin is still honest to a certain extent.

This is also closely related to the environment in which one grew up.

When Roque came to southern Africa, he was a policeman, and he was still an unpopular part of the police community, not even as good as the third brother.

Southern Africa was already autonomous when Gavin was born. In the following decades, Southern Africa's economy was developing at a rapid pace. Compared with Southern Africa, Europe is the Old Continent, and the United States is a country founded by heretics and tramps. Looking at the world, there is no

A country is comparable to Southern Africa, so Gavin and his generation have enough reasons to be proud. No matter from which perspective, Southern Africa is the best.

In this context, Gavin was naturally very open-minded and would not give Truman any special treatment because of his status. An American president who came to southern Africa to learn from others was no different from the President of Brazil or the Prime Minister of Australia.

Of course, this is only about attitude, and we still need to pay attention to strategy, so Gavin will not be unprepared and pick out what he can say.
