Saving the little-known lobbyist from the Duncan family away, Senator Langdon shook his head with a wry smile.
The very unpleasant experience of being lobbied was like someone shoved a finger into his nostril and asked him if he was happy.
I don't know if it's cool or not. Anyway, it's painful and sore, and tears are coming out, so it's not easy to refuse.
He finally got this position, and his **** didn't even get hot. How could he risk being "adjusted" to reject the Duncan family's lobbying?
Representatives, senators, all are members of Congress, but there are still big differences.
The difference in the number of people actually reflects the status of the two sides. The number of senators is much smaller than the number of representatives of the House of Representatives. At the same time, some heavyweight committees have a little more senators. Although they always say that the two sides are equal.
The main reason is that members of the House of Representatives can be adjusted quickly. When a party decides to change the strategy of Congress, they can replace those members of the House of Representatives who have no deep political background through very simple means.
Cooperating people, change a place to mix a state senator or something.
Anyone who doesn't cooperate can be kicked out for any reason.
Furthermore, even a person like Senator Langdon who actually has no deep background can run himself as a congressman, even though he pays for the position of mayor.
Then if someone wants to get rid of him, the price they pay will not exceed the position of mayor of a small city, and it may be much lower.
It's like the defensive side always invests more than the offensive side. Whether it is financial, material or energy, he must ensure that his position is stable. As for other personal honors, it doesn't really matter. .
He tilted his head to look at the bright sunshine outside the window, but his mood was far less bright than the sunshine at this time.
In this bright sunshine, Mr. Geruno is playing golf with Mr. Fitch.
The temperature at the end of January is still a little cold, and the most fearful thing for the elderly is the cold wind blowing outside.
The cold wind will turn into an invisible knife that can penetrate people's clothes, penetrate people's bodies, and leave deep cold on and in the bones.
So they choose to play golf indoors in the warmth, indoor golf, with large special glass overhead, which also allows them to get some sunlight.
There are no long fairways, it's actually just one green.
People hit the green in one stroke from the starting point, then putt in the hole, which is a great pastime for those who love golf, even though it's less of a big swing.
Mr. Geruno is standing in front of his ball. He is constantly adjusting the angle of his putter and trying different strengths. .
After about 20 seconds, he gently swings the ball and pushes the ball forward, watching the ball roll quickly across the undulating lawn, and finally land firmly into the hole, he waved his fist, He casually threw the tens of thousands of clubs in his hand to the caddie so carelessly.
"Good shot!" Mr. Fitch applauded.
Mr. Fitch doesn't look tall, with a little sparse and gray hair, like a very serious, but also very ordinary person.
Ninety-nine percent of the people he walked down the street would not know that he was passing the most powerful man in the Commonwealth, he was just so unnoticed.
But in federal politics, no one dared to ignore him, and no one could ignore him.
Mr. Geruno took off his non-slip gloves and walked aside, "I had this hunch that it would definitely get in!"
He also has a smile on his face, and scoring goals is definitely an enjoyable achievement for anyone who loves to play.
The caddie placed a golf ball at the ball mark, and then, gently, carefully removed the mark.
Mr. Fitch tightened his glove, took the same expensive club, and adjusted the position and angle.
He was more decisive than Mr. Geruno in his shots. He didn't take too long to aim and have a premonition. After ten seconds, he swung the club. Roll in the direction of the hole.
Both of them held their breaths. The moment the ball hit the hole, Mr. Fitch had a smile on his face, "Looks like it's tied again."
The caddie immediately brought him a scorebook, and he casually read a motion, "I remember correctly!"
He handed the club to the caddie with a smile, leaving his gloves on, and walked to another green with Mr. Geruno.
There are many indoor greens that change terrain features every once in a while, so there can be more designs.
Complex, simple, bumpy, smooth.
The two chatted while walking.
"Your pace is too big this time, we still have some questions about the security law..."
When Mr. Geruno raised this matter, the two parties began to study the proposal. As for the Socialist Party... Sometimes there is little difference between them and them.
There is a very strict attitude, a concept in the Commonwealth.
Capitalists hold wealth, politicians hold power, and the military holds armed forces.
The federation has developed from the past to the present, regardless of the fact that capitalists have been infiltrating the political arena and the military, and no one will back down when it comes to issues of principle.
The security law is obviously testing whether everyone's bottom line is the same as in the past. This sign is not very good, but their excuses are very good.
At present, in order to take care of the country's image in the international community, the federal government is inconvenient to send troops everywhere. Even the "army" sent to Nagalil is "spontaneously" formed by retired soldiers.
They are not required by the federal government, let alone by the federal military to go to Nagalil to form an armed deterrent to Nagalil and the surrounding area. They are spontaneously hired by the local government to help them maintain local peace. .
There is nothing about the federal government, but absolutely nothing about the capitalists.
At the same time, this situation can only happen in Nagalil, it cannot happen elsewhere, and the Federation will not provoke enemies everywhere in the name of "invaders".
Although there are warships escorted, warship **** can only ensure that there will be no problems on the sea under the **** of warships. In the process of specific operation of capitalists, in fact, some problems are often encountered.
"From the government's standpoint, you can restrain other countries from respecting and protecting the legitimate rights and interests of our businessmen, but you can't solve some matters outside the law."
"Rogues, gangs, scoundrels, there are such people everywhere, they themselves are outside the supervision of law and morality, their own government can't restrain their behavior, not to mention one they may never have What about the government of the country you've been to?"
The two walked to the steps, about a hundred meters away from them, which is another golf course.
The caddies follow them some distance away, and the bigwigs who come here don't like being surrounded by people when they're chatting.
Mr. Feige was thoughtful after listening, and Mr. Geruno continued, "The notion that the Commonwealth is rich has now become a consensus around the world. In some places where our influence is weak, Kidnappings, hijackings, and robberies against the Commonwealth have occurred from time to time.”
"The local government's inaction and even protection have left our merchants with no choice but to lose a sum of money and goods and leave, and some even sacrifice their lives."
"You can't protect us, and now we want to protect ourselves, can't we?"
Standing by the door, Mr. Geruno made a "please first" gesture, allowing Mr. Fitch to go through the door first.
Mr. Feige frowned. "You can hire some bodyguards or someone who can protect yourselves, or even buy weapons for yourself."
"We have allowed private individuals to purchase various standard weapons from the federal military-industrial group. You can actually do that, but you should not talk about it in the open."
"This is not a good question!"
The two walked down the ramp, and the caddie followed in time.
This green is about 1,000 square meters. In winter, there are green lawns and the temperature is very suitable.
The teeing point is on the back of a **** of about 30 degrees. Tee-off on this uneven ground is a test of the golfer's skills.
Mr. Feige took the club from the caddie and told the caddie to put the ball in, he hardly waited too long and swung hard.
The ball was hit and flew into the air, straight up and down, and luckily landed on the green.
Another caddie ran to where his ball had landed, put a marker on it, and picked it up.
This is to prevent the two **** from colliding. Although this kind of thing is not so easy to happen, it has happened after all, so there is such a measure.
Mr. Geruno took aim and continued, "But just because this proposal will sting some people's sensitive nerves, we businessmen should not bear these consequences that should not be borne by us."
"If the security law is passed, at least those who have bad intentions against us want to deal with us, it will not be so easy."
He took a long time to prepare before hitting the ball, and then his arm jerked, thumped, and the turf flew.
With just such a wave, the price of repairing the turf is about thirty or twenty dollars.
The two stopped talking again, watching the ball in the air, watching it land on the green, watching it roll toward the hole.
Although it didn't make it to the hole in the end~IndoMTL.com~, Mr. Geruno's shot was obviously very technical compared to Mr. Fitch's shot that was on the edge of the green.
"Good shot!" Mr. Fitch complimented.
Mr. Geruno smiled, and the two walked towards the green, "No one can stop the needs of the people."
"Right now it's just a stream of water, and if it's blocked for too long, it'll turn into a torrent that will destroy everything!"
Mr. Feige was thoughtful. He stood in front of the ball and thought for a while, and then hit the ball without hesitation. Although the ball was a little far from the hole, it finally fell into the hole.
"I'll think about it!"
Mr. Geruno clenched his fist upon hearing this, knowing he had convinced Mr. Fitch.
