Subtitle of this chapter: So there are still benefits to smoking? Children who don't have a system, please don't study!

The young Master He was still a little young, and he didn't have time to cultivate the demeanor of a master, and he said a little excitedly: "Brother Hong's masterpiece is well-organized, logical, and detailed, which really makes the younger brother admire." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info but ......"

He lifted the glasses on his face and said seriously: "The younger brother is a little disagreeable with Brother Hongji's argument of democracy from the perspective of utilitarianism. ”

"In the book, Brother Hong said that there is no special merit in direct democracy, and there is no substantial difference between the unrestricted power of a democratic state and the unrestricted power of a dictator/dictator."

At this point, he raised his voice and said: "In any case, democracy is certainly superior to dictatorship, and the most obvious example is our own America, which is a testament to the strength of democracy as by far the best balance between fairness and efficiency!" ”

Contrary to popular belief, classical liberalism is indeed incompatible with democratic systems, especially popular suffrage and direct suffrage. Precisely, classical liberals believed that it was only within the framework of liberalism that democratic politics could fulfill a certain social function. But the problem is that the classical liberals also believe that "the government that governs the least is the best government", and they want to keep the government out of the economic sphere. If a government can't get involved in the economy, then it really doesn't matter if it's elected or unelected.

Neoliberalism, which emerged in Britain in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, reversed classical liberalism in terms of democracy, proposing that freedom should be within the framework of democracy, not laissez-faire anarchist freedom.

Therefore, whether freedom is the framework of democracy or democracy is the framework of freedom is the biggest difference between the two views on the democratic system.

And now, in the twenties, Mises and Yuan Yanqian and others want to return to classical liberalism again, and even go one step further to globalize capitalism, which is called neoclassical liberalism.

So economists like He Lian, who are influenced by neoliberalism, think that democracy is the highest, while masters like Yuan Yanqi, who want to revive classical liberalism, think that freedom is the highest. That's where the argument between the two of them comes in.

Yuan Yanqian secretly said in his heart, this is because you have not seen Sandezi and a certain big country to say this. Of course, it is a pity that he can't list such good examples, so he has to try to "convince people with reason".

"Master Ball, come out!"

By the way, I have to do something to keep them from seeing the flaws.

So Xu He and the others saw Yuan Yanqian take out a cigarette from the cigarette case, paused for a long time, and then put it in front of his nose and sniffed it......

"Search for this book for me, I want the original English version!"

He finally put the cigarette in his mouth, lit the match with a dashing movement, lit the cigarette, and waved the match out casually......

"Memory indoctrination!"

He took a deep breath of his cigarette and lowered his head in serious thought.

This image became very famous in later generations and was called the "Sleeping ............ Well, "Thinking Master Yuan Yanqi", there are even a couple of very famous close-up photos. In fact, the photos make no difference at all, except for some changes in clothing and hair thickness.

"Brother Hongji, what's wrong with you?"

Just under the rock formations that Xu Zhimo and He Lian couldn't see in the dark underground, the magma flowed and flowed, slowly flowing to form a fiery red river. The lava river is quiet with a roar, and the gentleness is furious.

Still with his head down, Master Yuan raised his right hand, which was holding a cigarette, and chanted softly in a deep baritone: "Dangerous ambitions are mostly concealed by a beautiful cloak of zealous devotion to the rights of the people, and are seldom disguised by grim faces that sincerely support the government firmly and efficiently, and the former leads more inevitably to the ...... of the authoritarian path than the latter."

Magma accumulates and accumulates...... Slowly accumulating is an infinite amount of energy that has existed in the center of the earth since ancient times. Finally, the lava with nowhere to vent found a breakthrough, and the blazing flame spurted upwards rapidly!

"History will teach us......" Yuan Yanqian finally raised his head, shook his hair, and said in a loud voice: "Among those who overthrew the concessions of the republic, most of them started their careers by pleasing the people......

Unstoppable and unstoppable, the magma finally broke through the thick mountain top and burst out!

He waved the cigarette in his hand and said impassionedly: "They start with demagoguery, and they will end up as autocrats!" ”

Magma solidifies and solidifies...... Finally, it solidified into black soil and hard stone.

Seeing that Yuan Yanqian seemed to be in collapse all over, he took a step back sharply, panting and supporting his body with the table......

It's so uncomfortable! The feeling of a cold, slippery tentacle poking around the forehead lobe of your brain is really hard to put into words.

But there is no way, if Yuan Hongjian could memorize the original English version of the "Federalist Papers" and still be a bank clerk, he would have gone to the beacon of democracy to study for a PhD with a full scholarship. And his great-great-uncle Yuan Yanqian has this ability, will he not be able to get a master's degree from New York University?

That's right, this is a quote from the Federalist Papers. And the so-called Federalists are none other than the founding fathers of the United States, and the authors of the anthology are Alexander Hamilton, the first Secretary of the Treasury of the United States, and John Brown, the Chief Justice. Jay and the fourth Grand Commander, James Madison.

The meaning of this passage translates to that the head of state has not yet arrived in Hebei, and the Emperor Sichuan is still tweeting. Xiang Envoy didn't come to power at the beginning, who knows the truth of his life? Well, in fact what he is trying to say is that relying on the masses is bound to degenerate into the tyranny of the majority.

Although he was photographed by Yuan Yanqi's momentum and pose, He Lian and He Quan Lian are also famous figures in history, and the four major economists of the Republic of China are not so easy to dismiss.

He raised his glasses and replied in English: "But Tocqueville, in On Democracy in America, said that a democratic government, for all its many shortcomings, is still the government that most prospers society." Even if a democratic society will not be as opulent as an aristocratic society, there will not be much suffering......"

A master is a master, and dry goods are at hand, and there is no need to open a cheat like Yuan Yanqian at all.

He Lian continued: "In a democratic society, pleasure will not be excessive, and welfare will be greatly spread, and the country will not be so glorious and glorious, and may not be so powerful, but the majority of citizens will be more happy. ”
