Chapter 378 Monopoly Act
The interests of the country are always the most important, and only by ranking this standard first, the future Australia will not follow in the footsteps of the Ming Dynasty, nor will it become a country like the United States in the later stage.
Although to a large extent, the Crossing hopes to develop Australia into a country like the United States, where big business secretly controls the government behind the scenes, but in the end the country will only become a stick in the hands of some people to make profits.
Bao Zitu's conversation with Xiao Baitu that night did not make him give up the introduction of the restriction bill, and the next day, he began to act on his own, this time Bao Zitu found his allies, these people are relatively old, and they are concerned about the future of Australia, but at the same time they have one thing in common, that is, they have no say within the government.
It is not so much that these people are concerned about the future of the country, but rather that they are more jealous of the existing class and the power they hold, and the entire 500-odd people do not look at them as belonging to the same group of people, and after more than two years of development, there has been a clear difference.
Hierarchical societies have been clearly separated, and those who have accumulated wealth by virtue of their own advantages and resources naturally have more power to speak within the whole than those who rely on dividends from total equity, and most importantly, money and power are often inseparable.
Without money, you will naturally lose the opportunity to interact with power, so these allies of Bao Zitu are basically some people who have no words, and their only advantage is that at the plenary meeting, they have the right to express their stance on whether a thing is passed or not.
As for other aspects. They don't have that much power, and that's where the bun diagram only has an advantage, if it can. He also wants to choose those who have vested interests as allies.
The launch of the restriction bill on big business groups this time was actually secretly instructed by President Zhou Aiguo, don't look at him as the president on the surface, the top person in charge of this country, in fact, many things are not something he can decide.
In the case of the Ministry of Foreign Trade, it is simply ironic for a government that a country's department has overseas powers that most central governments can operate. Even if everyone has taken many actions against the excessive power of the Ministry of Foreign Trade, it is of little practical significance.
The Ministry of Foreign Trade controls almost all overseas resources, and controls the right to speak in the import and export trade. The extraordinary government is ruthless in taking them back, otherwise it is simply impossible.
However, the possibility of a ruthless action is not high, and once the Ministry of Foreign Trade takes the risk to ignore the national interest, the Australian government will suffer huge losses. This is one of the main reasons why the government has not dared to forcibly reclaim its rights. In addition to this, foreign trade has established an overseas business network. It is the main export channel for Australian exports.
Without this network, if you build it from scratch, you are simply looking for death, and you can't be so comprehensive for a while.
In recent years, it has been impossible to take over power from the Ministry of Foreign Trade, and the government can only set up another rivalry, let the two sides contain each other, and finally mediate in the agreement, which is like the emperor in the feudal period. Always like to do it.
However, in order to cultivate and suppress opponents, there is actually a certain risk in doing so. In addition to cultivating a bigger adversary, it is also possible that they will secretly reach an agreement to share power.
Today's parliament can be said to be occupied by representatives of their own interests, and it is estimated that there are few people who can really consider the country, and the thing that is aimed at every day is how to defeat the opponent and make the greatest benefit for themselves, that is, how to expand the interests and let their children and grandchildren enjoy the rights indefinitely.
Aristocrats have become synonymous with them, they have seen themselves as nobles in their hearts and deeds, and they are explaining everything with their actions.
Early in the morning, Bao Zitu dressed in formal clothes and walked towards the parliament with the support of a group of allies, a group of about 60 people, which quickly attracted many citizens of Manchester City. Although many of the people in the team have no say in the government, for ordinary people, these are also absolute master-level figures, because they suddenly find that their leaders such as section leaders or workshop directors are also in them.
What do they want to do, is this going to launch some kind of protest, the citizens thought to themselves, because every time there is a team level, something definitely happens, and the first few times have fully proved everything.
So at this time, it is not difficult to guess, although the slogan is not shouted, but it can be seen from the people in the team that something big is definitely happening.
Some of the new arrivals are nervous about whether the incident will affect their future.
The parliament was already full of people, and Bao Zitu stood at the front, put a report on restricting the monopoly operation of enterprises on the table, and then stopped the crowd behind him.
"Is this bill today jointly proposed by us, and I hope that Congress will seriously approve it," Bao Zitu said, pointing to the bill.
The expressions of the parliamentarians were different, but everyone was caught off guard by the sudden action of Bao Zitu, how can this guy be like a-stirring stick, some time ago he was still proposing to restrict the export of technology, and this was put on the monopoly in a blink of an eye, I went, can you not think about it so jumping, we can't keep up, okay.
More than 60 people, more than 60 pairs of eyes, just looked at the councillors, and they were really worried that these guys would do something bad and start to do it.
Zhao Shijie and others, who had already known the news in advance, deliberately did not come today, and also avoided a chance to charge them head-on.
As long as Liu Yun, the intelligence chief, is there, there is almost no news that he doesn't know, and he knows it for the first time.
The parliamentarians looked at the excited crowd and knew that it was impossible not to agree, but to agree would mean giving up their own interests, which was an extremely difficult thing to do.
And many people own their own shares in large companies, and the benefits of these shares are not something that everyone can give up, and most importantly, they are not willing to give it up.
This guy is simply too hateful, I've never seen such a difficult guy, he will never stop if he doesn't make a little trouble, what does he want, if this guy enters the government department, I'm afraid it will be even worse, and now many people feel that they really made a wise decision to rank this guy outside the government department, otherwise today's trouble will be far more than that.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this bill will be carefully reviewed and studied by the Congress, so let's go back first, so as not to affect the normal work of the Congress." (To be continued......)
