American Fortune Life

From the financial tsunami triggered by the subprime mortgage crisis to the collapse of Wall Street, the nightmare of the United States has arrived. Americans have always loved personal worship and heroism, especially suffered material setbacks, and needed spiritual encouragement. So at the end of 2008, a dark horse came into being. His name was Aoguanhai.

"Yes, ican", "yes, wecan".

These two sentences don't know how much the American people are moved by the passion and enthusiasm, just stunned to offer their votes. Young Guanguanhai, who has no management experience, correctly grasped the psychological direction of the people and achieved greatness. Well, just like a joke circulating in Washington privately, the victory of Austrian Guanhai is a triumph of political rhetoric.

Well, no matter what the process is, as the first black president in American history, you have to do something that fits this first thing, for example, to resolve the economic crisis and save the people of the world.

So he chose Wall Street. At that time, Wall Street was dying under the shadow of the subprime mortgage crisis and the economic bubble, and even the entire economy of the United States and the world was overcast. Objectively speaking, Wall Street has made great contributions to the economic development of the United States and the world, but the ordinary people never thought of it when they made a profit. It was only during the economic crisis that all grievances spilled on it.

As a donkey party president, representing the interests of the majority of the middle and lower class people, Austrian Guanhai really did a ruthless bird, raised his pants and did not confess his account, scolded Wall Street as a greedy "fat cat", and expressed his determination to strengthen Financial Supervision. But you can't blame Auguanhai for turning his face into disregard, and the financial giants on Wall Street are indeed a little bit dead.

The U.S. economy has not yet achieved substantial recovery, the government is overwhelmed by high unemployment and high deficits, and ordinary people are still worried about housing and rice bowls. Large Wall Street financial institutions that have received huge government aid are preparing to distribute 2009 High 36 billion dollar bonus. From this point of view, Ao Guanhai hit Wall Street severely, and seemed to conform to public opinion and greatly popularize. Although it offended Wall Street's financial giants, it won public support and word of mouth.

However, Wall Street's financial tycoons do not "buy" the president's account, they immediately reacted fiercely to the president's criticism, refuting the president's criticism.

Wall Street has publicly accused that the criticism of President Au Guanhai is only a good political tactic. However, Wall Street's dividends are based on contracts. If bonuses are not paid, many companies will be closed. Dividends have instead become a "good medicine" to save the financial industry. . .

I have to say that the courage and courage of Wall Street financial tycoons is "admirable".

No way, if anyone, including the president, wants to fight Wall Street, be prepared to fight "a protracted war."

"He has missed the best time to force Wall Street to comply." Andy raised his eyebrows and put down his knife and fork, took a napkin, and gently wiped his mouth, and of course laughed, "At this time, Wall Street is not a subprime mortgage. In the first few months of the crisis, Wall Street was able to breathe out of the "distressed asset rescue plan". Now, it is these large financial institutions that have the time advantage.

He and Wall Street have torn their faces, and those Wall Street predators are eager to give him and the Donkey Party some lessons. Naturally, they will give a large amount of political investment to the Elephant Party. Believe that, Dad, you should also be the beneficiary. "

Andy smiled at Auston, who nodded slightly, put the napkin on the dining table, stood up and kissed Ivana, prepared to go upstairs to change clothes and leave, and finally said a word.

"Any future proposal of Austrian Seaview on Wall Street may be a" saw battle "on Capitol Hill, which also means that the likelihood of Wall Street laughing in the end is greatly increased. As for overseas taxes, he will also face an unprecedented wave of opposition. . "

Auston frowned slightly at the back of Andy's departure, wondering what Li Wanqing sighed and said with emotion: "Sitting in a white house is just sitting on a crater."

After speaking, Li Wanqing looked at her husband, opened her mouth, and finally said nothing. She knew that her husband's ambition was also that white house. As a wife, she must support him, not hinder her.

Andy, who was sitting in a Maybach car, looked through the window and watched the White House security personnel doing the inspection. The White House, some presidents said it was like living in an "eight-star hotel", but some presidents complained about it. Like a "luxury prison". But every Washington politician is full of ambition and ambition for the table and seat here.

A neat blue suit outlines Andy's figure more evenly, which is simply fascinating. Some people are born with a temperament. When they go there, they are the focus of attention, and they follow the Chief of Staff of the White House. In the corridor of the Oval Office, Andy is extraordinary, with a sense of nobility, elegant and confident in every move.

In the Oval Office, Andy smiled and accepted the enthusiastic embrace of Au Guanhai. To be honest, Andy was also a little curious about the invitation of Au Guanhai today. As a famous example of unprofitable and early, he really did not know, How can His Excellency the President get help from him.

To be honest, after the announcement from Au Guanhai to crack down on US companies and individuals' overseas tax avoidance and tax evasion, the President has pushed him and all multinational companies to the opposite side. As for the unjustified salary increase on Wall Street, he is safe. De Smith couldn't help it anymore. After all, he didn't give away less bonuses to his staff. Of course, the bonuses he made were all earned, and it didn't matter if the government's rescue plan. . . Well, at least it doesn't seem to make any connection.

Sure enough, the topics that Au Guanhai talked to him were these two topics. In addition to asking Andy's views and opinions on these two things, he also hoped to get Andy's support.

"... Andy, our announced approach will help us deal with some of the wrong paradigms in our tax system."

"Hehe." Andy shook his head and laughed, his eyes bright and sharp facing Aoguanhai. With a smile: "In your opinion, this may block many" commercial loopholes "in the tax system, but for all multinational companies, it is undoubtedly a robbery. After all, the law allows multinational companies to reasonably avoid taxes, regardless of whether they can avoid them. How much tax is within the legal framework, sorry, Mr. President, I cannot support the changes to this tax regulation, and the entire Silicon Valley and even the US multinational companies will not support it. "

Although Andy kept smiling, what he said made Au Guanhai's expression a little awkward. He might not have thought that the young man in front of him didn't care about his president's face, and hesitated directly. Rejected his 'good faith request'.

Andy looked at his frown and fell into the silent Okuanhai. He also knew that the president really had the time to want to make a little political achievement. However, during the time he came to power, the real contribution was to spend money. Rescue Wall Street, spend money to save American car companies, and things like job creation, financial regulatory reforms, tax reforms, and health care commitments are all struggling.

"Mr. President, I understand that this plan may allow the United States to regain $ 210 billion in tax revenue in the next 10 years. At the same time, you also want to make it easier for American companies to create jobs at home. But trust me, this tax Changes to the regulations will not be passed in Congress, it will only waste time and reduce the credibility of Mr. President's New Deal. "

Andy also doesn't want to be in a stalemate with Aoguanhai. After all, he still needs a lot of his support in the future, but some of Aoguanhai's policies that break the boundaries of interest groups' acceptance are really difficult to achieve their goals.

"As a friend, Mr. President, I don't know what to say or not?"

"Of course, we are good friends, and I am willing to listen to my friends' suggestions, which will be very helpful to me." Ao Guanhai's eyes lightened slightly, he changed his tangles on his face, looked at Andy with anticipation and said with a smile. .

"Well, maybe the words are a bit harsh, but believe me, I said it as a friend." Andy nodded with a smile, but a sneer in his heart. If he was ready, he would stimulate it. The impeccable President Mr. in front of him.

"Whether it is an overseas tax or an attack on Wall Street, it seems that this is indeed in line with public opinion and has quickly gained popular support. But the problem follows. The first is that the proposal for overseas tax can really prevent all U.S. multinational corporations from being on time. Pay taxes and promote employment?

The second is that the American people are plagued by unemployment rates of more than 10% almost every day. Now, whether the pleasure brought by criticism on Wall Street is enough to offset their anger and depression about the sluggish US economy?

The third is whether it also shows that the government is deliberately evading the emphasis on domestic affairs, temporarily abandoning the two difficult bones of increasing employment and financial reforms, and working hard to promote the robberies of the rich and the poor, and take the flags of a number of multinational companies?

The fourth is to consider the actual situation in Congress? Will the Elephant Party compromise? If this proposal ends up empty, then the credibility of your "New Deal" is still a few percent. Do you still have the courage to seek re-election? "
