Blackstone Code Chapter 210: Everyone has their own thoughts
The people are dissatisfied with the mayor, and the capitalists in the city are also dissatisfied with the mayor. They are the group of people who are the least willing to see social unrest. Once social unrest will mean that their business will fail.
This gathering held by wealthy businessmen said that it was to protect property against illegal acts, but in fact there should be some "ideas".
Lynch didn't make a statement, just stood quietly on the side. Although people paid attention to him, it was clear that the core of the gathering was not him, but the wealthy businessman.
What he said is not entirely correct. In federal law, "entry" often refers to the violation of non-business private territory, that is, the place of residence. In this case, direct countermeasures are protected by law.
But whether the business premises belongs to the concept of "room entry", whether the intruder can be killed without hesitation, there are still some technical and moral problems, not to mention that when the rich businessman mentions the purpose of his party, in fact This argument is no longer tenable.
In order to kill those who robbed their property, some gunmen were specially arranged in the store, and the jury would never give these people a good look. They would think it was a deliberate murder.
Maybe the gunman will be acquitted, but his advocate may be convicted of murder, so he said these words, everyone did not respond too positively, there are not a few fools here.
He talked for a while, seeing that the atmosphere was not bad, so he started the topic of this meeting, "Speaking of these recent problems in our city, there is a person who has some different ideas, I don't know what you think Don't know Congressman Edward?"
Some people nodded. Congressman Edward is one of the members of the state House of Representatives. He has initiated some proposals for urban reform, and he often goes to the people and goes to the people.
What he is most proud of is that he has mastered the skills of blacksmithing and lumbering, which he claims to have learned from blacksmiths and lumberjacks, in order to experience the hard work of labor.
People at the bottom are very fond of this trick, and he still has some fame in society.
But his scripts are not very popular in the eyes of the upper class, and a member of the state House of Representatives, although honestly very powerful, is only limited to that.
The rich businessman was talking when someone knocked on the door, and it happened to be Senator Edward who came in.
The rich businessman explained a little, "I have exchanged a lot of ideas and opinions with Congressman Edward these days. I think Congressman Edward is a person who is very enthusiastic about our lives and cares about our interests."
"Something that happened recently made me realize that we need someone to speak up for us!"
At this moment, people finally understand the purpose of this gathering. It is actually a political act. Some people are very interested. They really think that there is no problem with what the rich businessman said. So far, nothing has changed.
And it has always been a tradition to invest in politicians, who take the capitalists' money everywhere to increase their influence, in return for their power, once they gain power, to use that power for those who support them capitalists for the benefit.
The most common ones are tax reductions and exemptions, and of course there are local policy inclinations. These are all things that capitalists take a fancy to.
There are also people who find it boring, such as Lynch, who knows some deeper inside, Congressman Edward and his potential supporters have offended the mayor, and those behind the mayor.
Whether they belong to a party or not, or a faction within a party, they will inevitably bury some minor conflicts with each other.
This is understandable.
For a party, resources are limited, even if it is a big party like the Progressive Party, the Conservative Party, and the Socialist Party is subconsciously forgotten again.
Their resources can only be concentrated on a few people, and others can only rely on themselves to fight for it. One of the people who kills a **** path from thousands of low-level politicians has a certain possibility to become this person. one of several people.
Now the mayor of Sabine City has won this position by himself, so he can enter the eyes of some people and become part of the alternative.
The competition at the bottom is always cruel, whether it is for ordinary people, small businessmen, or these "bottom politicians".
Thousands of thousands of small circles in thousands of rooms make up the various states of this society.
Among the many bad news, there is good news. The drinking water company and their employees have negotiated that after two days of shutting down the water supply, the drinking water company can guarantee that there will be two water supply in the morning and afternoon each day. hourly water supply time.
The negotiation was made because the workers of the drinking water company found out after a two-day strike that they themselves had been victimized by the strike.
Others did run out of water, but they didn't have a drop of excess water in their own taps. They could only reach a compromise after several rounds of intense negotiations.
Roughly, it means to work two hours less per week, and the monthly salary will be increased by 3.5% based on the hourly wage standard, and there will be three more days of paid vacation each year.
Workers are content to enjoy legal strike leave, they are not in a hurry to go to work, and they have to build up momentum for other strike groups.
Perhaps he saw Lynch standing by himself, and Congressman Edward, who had just finished a conversation, came over with a glass of wine.
Lynch is currently a well-regarded businessman in Sabine City. In this era of countercurrent, it is not easy for every enterprise to make money, and it is not easy to ensure that it does not lose money. The kind that puffs out his chest when he says it.
But Lynch's company not only doesn't lose money, it makes big profits every week.
What is even more incomprehensible is that most ordinary people have a negative view of capitalists, but when they came to Lynch, many people thanked him and his business.
Even the mayor sometimes needs to use Lynch's influence to promote something, not to mention that they plan to cooperate with TV stations and communication companies to open live auctions and telephone auctions!
If these things really come true, everyone can feel that a terrible monster is being born.
The valuation of Lynch's company has almost reached the standard of listing, and if their auction in the state capital can maintain the "style" of the continuous success in the past, more companies and individuals will invest in Lynch.
Getting Lynch's help is almost equivalent to indirectly getting the attention and even help of those behind him.
"You didn't bring a female companion?" Edward took the initiative to walk to Lynch's side. He didn't despise him because of Lynch's youth.
Lynch turned around and nodded slightly, "I don't have a girlfriend yet. You know, people like us will always feel that there is not enough time, let alone fall in love."
He shook the wine glass in his hand, and the liquid in the glass swayed a little, "Maybe I'll think about these things when I'm 30 years old."
This is a very ordinary opening remark, Edward and Lynch exchange glasses, "What do you think our problem is at the moment?"
This is a very general question, Lynch thought about it, "Communication."
If both employers and employees can calm down, sit down and communicate, instead of expressing their demands in a radical way like a general strike, the problem may not be as serious as it is now.
But any problem is two-sided, maybe they have tried this before and failed, so strikes have become a common practice because only then are capitalists willing to listen to what workers have to say.
It's just that this time the general strike is far superior to the previous ones in terms of scale, influence and destructive power.
Congressman Edward pointed at Lynch with a glass of wine, "That's right, communication. So far, we haven't seen any effective communication channels. Appeals and speeches can't change any actual situation." /
He's implying that the mayor's actions are pointless, and he seems to be.
He said with a smile on his face, "I am different from Langdon and the others. They are either academics (Saint Harmony) or politicians from elites (famous universities), they don't know what the people really want. ."
"And I...", he took a step back, and there were some movements in his hands. His body language was very rich, which made his words seem more infectious, "I come from an ordinary elementary school. ~IndoMTL.com~ Ordinary high school, ordinary college, I know what those people want because I came from them.”
This sentence is actually not true, because those who really "they" can't afford to go to college, the least who can afford college are the middle class, the least!
His words changed, "I'm familiar with the branch president of the trade union. I'm going to talk to them about the solution to the conflict between labor and management. If you need anything, maybe in the negotiation. I can say it together during the process.”
This is how he attracts others. He talks directly to the head of the trade union about the strike. There are many people here who are eager to end and resume work immediately. Congressman Edward has firmly grasped their needs. , his chips are shining.
It's just that this chip is not very useful for Lynch, because he doesn't have many workers under his command, he only has a large group of partners!
Besides, he never forces those people to work hard. It is his attitude that he likes to do it or not. His immediate interests will always make these people more motivated than urging them. Money is better than whip!
Lynch shook his head, "I'm glad you can think of me, but I don't have these troubles yet."
Edward was a little disappointed, but only disappointed. He didn't expect a random gathering to get everyone to support him. If he could do that, he would already be president.
