Chapter 108 A False Proposition
Without the blind tossing and turning of US imperialism, economic globalization would in fact be an inevitability.
Of course, even with such a group of bastards, the pace of globalization will not stop.
It needs to be noted here that the United States and the United States are different. The US imperialism mentioned here refers to the financial oligarchy of the United States.
This group of guys, in fact, has no nationality, and they are not in the interests of the United States. The path they're taking now, John Bull actually had.
The Great Voyage and the Industrial Revolution gave John Bull the opportunity to rise. Their industrial products quickly overwhelmed the small handicraft states.
However, the side effects of industrialization were also significant, with dirty air, poor environmental pollution, and strained labor relations.
In short, John Bull was so annoyed that they decided to move their industry out, and as long as they could control finance, as long as they could control shipping, no other country could threaten its position.
Obviously, they take it for granted that such a thing as finance, once a large-scale war breaks out, will immediately lose its original value.
An economic powerhouse without production capacity is not very reliable. This is why John Bull was beaten so badly by the Germans.
Is globalization needed? This is a false proposition, and it is not worth discussing at all. The crux of the matter is where the margin of safety lies.
Food, of course, this goes without saying. A small book, there is not much land that can be cultivated, it is all a small piece, and there is no value in it. At least, large-scale mechanized planting and harvesting, you don't have to worry about it.
Yes, the food in this country may meet 50% of the demand.
This is very powerful, if you go to Africa, the per capita arable land is five times ten times larger, and they can still starve themselves to death. To tell the truth, after getting rid of colonial rule, there was no good harvest on this continent.
On the issue of agriculture, everyone agrees that everyone is protecting their own agriculture, except for the stupid Mexico. The level of agricultural subsidies in Europe is simply sensational.
You don't need to plant any land at all, and with these subsidies to buy food, it is estimated that you can feed more than half of the people.
Since developed countries are not worried about their own food security, it is natural that a purely agricultural country will not reap any benefits. In the international division of labor, there is no such thing as agriculture at all.
No one will hang themselves from a tree, no matter how low the cost of your production is, it is just a supplement, and if the price is too cheap, it will encounter tariff barriers.
Well, leaving aside agriculture, the so-called globalization, that is, industry and finance.
After Maozi fell, Eagle Sauce regretted it a little. In order to win over more younger brothers, they have paid a bit too much. Including semiconductors, in all industrial projects, Eagle Sauce does not take advantage of anything.
This is angry, if you don't clean up a little harder, it is impossible for these capitals to return to the United States. Nearly eight trillion U.S. knives are floating around the world, and as long as some of them come back, there will be no problems with the economy of the United States.
It's a pity that they are used to getting something for nothing, who is willing to get up early and open a factory at night. All the money you spend investing in the factory is used to buy a house, mortgage the house to the bank, and then buy some technology stocks.
After three years, you will find that the person who used to run the factory with you has already lived on the streets.
No kidding, the land price in rice is cheaper than the capital, the electricity bill is cheaper, and the tax is cheaper. Skilled workers are paid slightly higher wages but are also very limited.
However, the quality of the products produced in the United States is not as good as the original, and the cost is much higher.
"Andy, how is it now?"
"Boss, those hedge funds are afraid of it, and the turnover is not large. It seems that there is no intention of giving up. ”
"Give up? Are you kidding, who would give up such a big benefit easily. The old guy looked disdainful, but he wasn't more concerned about this now.
"By the way, Andy, what's going on in Texas, won't White Oil fire the workers, how can it be so strange this time, how can the guild support him. ”
"Ahem, boss, this guy is cunning. His business doesn't want to see the guild, and White's family foundation doesn't, especially in Texas, where they become staunch supporters when the guild makes a big move. ”
"Damn, there is still this?"
"Yes, boss, there's never been anyone who can be brazen to this extent.
It is precisely for this reason that the saber rattling on the surface is more of a gesture. ”
"Alas, it's good to be a businessman, if such a guy becomes a politician, he will have no opponents at all. ”
If William White was present, he would definitely give his middle finger up. Isn't it, am I the one who does this?
Go and see Wal-Mart, the largest commercial chain in the United States, didn't it also sweep the guild out of the house?
For that reason, New York State just wouldn't let Walmart in.
Yes, you read that right, the guilds can do this, they don't nod their heads, and you don't even want to drive into New York with a Walmart.
If you have too many employees, you'll have to get rid of the guild, or your company won't survive. The energy of this group of guys is unimaginable.
Don't talk about 996, you can't pass any policy that might increase labor intensity. It's easy for the boss to make some money, and you don't want to expand production, because, if you do, you won't have the money to increase benefits.
Is it important to work in the interests of the workers?
Without a doubt, this is a very important part. However, due to your guild's foolishness, many businesses have gone out of business.
As a lighthouse nation, it is true that Eagle Sauce needs to set an example. However, to their surprise, although the European and the book was applauded, it did not mean to copy it.
Guilds exist, but generally speaking, they cannot exist in the form of trades. For example, you can have a Toyota guild, but you can't have an auto workers' guild.
It is said that this is talked about twice a year, and this is called spring and autumn. Generally speaking, it's good to have a little meaning, like this year's case, as long as there are no layoffs, the guild will not cause chaos.
At this point, the people of the United States think differently. Like, they're not worried about bringing down their business.
"Ernie sauce, are you okay staying on Lanai? I read the news, Soros seems to be going to London again. ”
"My dear, it's okay, this goods just didn't clean up, someone poured a bottle of tea, and he thought that no one dared to touch him, he was an idiot. ”
"Don't move, aren't you already comfortable, why are you still so careless. ”
"Ahem, the main thing is that you're too charming. ”
"Hmph, I'm too lazy to pay attention to you. "Li Fuzhen can't stand this anymore, you said that you are also a literary youth, so you can't use some new words.
Lying on the bed on all fours, William White began to spit out his poisonous tongue again.
"Soros, he has a kind of coming to the Lion City to see if anyone will bite him. "William White actually has some egg pain, he has long received the news that this thing is out fishing, around him, the CIA, the FBI, and a whole bunch of unidentified idiots.
This is a big hole, Soros is the bait, and I don't know who I plan to fish.
"This villain, those guys in London don't know what they're going to eat, but they're going to grab some hard drive.
If Soros is kidnapped, the world will definitely be much quieter. ”
William White smiled bitterly, he couldn't say that this was a buddy's desire to cover up, if he really wanted to kill this thing, he would have died eight times earlier.
