Blackstone Code Chapter 98: The level of pursuit of eating
In a country like the Baylor Commonwealth, people always laugh with a half-joking, half-helpless tone. Taxes and death are something that no one can avoid.
In fact, in addition to taxes and death, there is another thing that people cannot avoid, regardless of life, old age, sickness and death, and that is political stance.
The Bayer Federation has three major parties, which is also a requirement of the Bayer Federation Charter. At any time, there must be three political parties in the Bayer Federation competing for the power to govern.
The Federal Progressive Party, the Federal Conservative Party, and the Federal Socialist Party, these three political factions, in a seemingly loose and liberal political environment, are actually sometimes very aggressive.
Even while in jail, the courts will ask people to fill out a questionnaire that includes the prisoner's political stance, and then assign prisons and quarters to serve their sentences according to the questionnaire.
His Excellency the Mayor is very satisfied with Lynch's answers, reactions and thoughts. Political stance is his last question. If Lynch has a different political stance than his own, he will downplay Lynch's presence in it. It will even interview some local capitalists and ask them to find a way to replace Lynch, and then drive Lynch to other places.
Let a capitalist from another party grow and develop on the Progressive Party's turf, this is a fundamentally impossible thing, unless Your Excellency the Mayor decides to give up his future political life or change camps to help Lynch rise for free.
Politicians and capitalists are always complementary to each other. Capitalists provide politicians with enough political donations, provide them with jobs, and provide more content related to urban construction.
In the same way, politicians will also feed back what the capitalists want, the inclination of policies, and some development plans tailored around the capitalists.
This requires both parties to be able to trust each other and be intimate in some cooperation. People cannot trust "outsiders", they only trust "own people".
What kind of person is "one's own person"?
Obviously, people who share the same political stance and are united for the same goal are their own.
Fortunately, the answer Lynch gave him made him very satisfied, and he didn't mind introducing Lynch into the Progressive Party and letting the power of capital invade the party. This is not a scandal in the Baylor Federation, and any well-known politician is behind it. There is support from capitalists and even consortia.
Without the support of these people, even the most amazing politicians can't do anything in this magical land!
Of course, Bailer's political environment is still very loose, at least on the surface, there has never been any **** against civilians. People can say that they belong to the Progressive Party in the morning, and they can change their position in the afternoon to become a member of the Progressive Party. The Conservative Party supporters, no one will say them, at most some ordinary people will call them shameless.
This kind of environment is indeed very loose. It does not require any substantive application, does not require a long review and approval, just one sentence and one sentence of approval, and the whole process is basically completed.
But after breaking away from the bottom of the society, in the middle and upper classes of society, the political environment will become relatively strict. For people like capitalists and politicians, it is not easy to change their positions. It's easy to cause some trouble if you're not careful.
There are other, more complicated situations here, but that's not relevant now.
Lynch checked some information before going to the banquet and had some knowledge of the Progressive Party. What he said just now was not entirely flattering words to cater to His Excellency the Mayor.
In his eyes, the Progressive Party is indeed much better than the Conservative Party, which is currently in power.
From a certain point of view, the Bayer Federation does not participate more in international disputes and wars. It works hard to develop technology and industry behind closed doors. It seems that the Bayer Federation has made great progress in some aspects. Progress.
However, this also created a hidden danger for the Baylor Federation.
People may not realize that with the development of technology, the concept of Blue Star will change from "planet" to "village".
It takes about a month and a half to go to the farthest Zarisku United Kingdom from the Baylor Federation. There are parts by land and parts by sea. People will not be interested in such a distant country, nor do they believe this Distant nations can influence the Baylor Federation.
However, when airplanes or other faster moving methods appear in the future, this will greatly shorten people's perception of distance. They may depart in the morning and arrive in the United Kingdom of Zarisku in the afternoon or the next day.
Today's rejection of the outside world will inevitably lead to the isolation of the federation from the outside world in the future. When other countries begin to develop rapidly through exchanges, the federation will gradually fall behind and eventually be eliminated.
While the Conservative Party is still singing the praises of isolationism, the Baylor Federation has actually had some problems, and if these problems cannot be solved in a short time, it will inevitably affect the future for a long time.
Compared to the Conservative Party, the Progressive Party's political platform and their ideas are obviously more in line with the trend of world development and Lynch's needs for the future.
Integration into the world is the most correct choice!
He talked about some of his views on dissatisfaction with the Conservative Party, which resonated well with His Excellency the Mayor.
Sometimes you don't need to praise a person, just criticize his opponent, you can get the person's appreciation, and this kind of appreciation can satisfy him more than flat praise.
"Your opinion is very advanced..." The smile on His Excellency the Mayor's face was always there. He paused when he said this, the door of the room opened, and Ferrara quickly observed the two of them. look, and tell them that lunch is ready.
Ferrara breathed a sigh of relief because of the happy atmosphere between the two. Lynch is a guy who looks tender and sometimes feels a little shy, but is actually very assertive and very tough guy~IndoMTL .com~ He was afraid that this guy and the mayor would break up, but now it seems that the two get along well.
"Then let's fill our stomachs first?" His Excellency the Mayor's slightly negotiating tone and the smile on his face made Ferrara even more shocked. , but they will show through the details.
This kind of inquiring tone does not often happen in the work and life of Your Excellency the Mayor, and Ferrar increasingly feels that Lynch is a magical boy.
Lynch stood up and straightened his clothes, "Of course, Your Excellency!"
The two entered the dining room. There were only two seats at the table, and there were only two sets of utensils on the table. The place where Ferrar dined was not here, although he was the mayor's personal valet. .
Originally, according to the plan, Ferrara should have resigned to eat at this time. There is a special waiter here, but he took the waiter job and wanted to hear how Lynch moved His Excellency the Mayor.
After the two sat down, the mayor glanced at Ferrara, who was opening a drink, and then withdrew his gaze. He felt that Ferrara was very sensible, knew that some words were not suitable for others to listen to, and was a reliable person.
Today's lunch is a combination of steak and fish steak. The base is T-bone steak. One food can taste three different styles of food and have more flavor changes. This is rich people's happiness.
While poor people are still pursuing how to fill their stomachs, they have begun to pursue more changes in taste, more distinct textures, and an aftertaste that finally stays in the mouth.
The poor eat is the real meal, just to fill the stomach.
The rich people eat for enjoyment. Putting food into the stomach is just a process that cannot be omitted.
