Chapter 353: There is also a follow-up
The United States is now very financially tight, and the outbreak of a small conflict in Hokkaido alone has made the US government grit its teeth, and it cannot afford it, and it cannot fight anymore, and if it fights again, the country will be poor.
When Carter took office, some of the welfare measures promised could not be fulfilled, so the United States could no longer fight.
The Navy wants this, it wants that, the Congress does not have the ability to allocate funds, the Navy will find its own way.
All these mean that the country is indeed poor and its finances are extremely tight, but this can only be the country's finances, and it is the state that has no money.
The country can be poor, but the rich are still rich, and those capitalists are still rich.
Even in the past economic crisis, the capitalists were pouring milk into the rivers, while the poor could not eat enough, and even starved to death on the streets, this is the naked reality.
It doesn't matter if the country has no money, it is the capitalists who have the money, and the parliamentarians present actually represent a certain capital force behind them.
If you don't have enough funds, you can run for a legislature yourself, and the cost of running for election alone is not something that you can afford, so if you want to run for election, you must be running for a certain capital force, or someone they support.
Even the president of the United States has to rely on the capitalists, and he does not represent the interests of the people, but the interests of the capitalists.
It's like now.
Through these wars, the role of large aircraft carriers was promoted, and then, the British were fooled into buying their own decommissioned and mothballed aircraft carriers, and the British had no money, so they just fooled them into taking the privatization of state-owned enterprises, so that they would have money.
What's more, in the process of privatization, American capital can also enter, so that the American capitalists can get benefits, yes, even if they just hold shares, they can also get benefits, they are very familiar with Britain, and they are also familiar with those defense industries.
As soon as Nathan said this, the representatives of the capitalists present showed greedy expressions, they were very satisfied with this plan, and they must support it!
Just now, Nathan said that he wanted to cut taxes, and almost no one responded, and now, when Nathan said how to swallow up Britain's state-owned enterprises, they applauded.
That's right, thunderous applause.
Even the councillor who had just opposed Nathan was applauding, but Jenny, instead of applauding, just continued to look at Nathan with appreciation. When I went to the UK, Jenny was also there, but Jenny would not have thought that Nathan was doing this foreshadowing at that time, this guy actually started to arrange chess pieces so early, just to get the consent of Congress now!
Don't look at Nathan's youth, he has already shown outstanding political talent, although he is also military excessive, but, I have to say, Nathan is worth cultivating.
Nathan's these, must be reported to grandpa, grandpa will definitely be interested in Nathan, and will deliberately cultivate Nathan!
Jenny made up her mind.
"Since everyone agrees so, can our navy's plan be carried out?" Nathan asked as he turned to O'Neal.
O'Neill nodded: "We can start, we need to send outstanding diplomats to lobby Britain about aircraft carriers." ”
Looking at O'Neill's gaze, Nathan suddenly thought of something, and immediately shook his head: "I'm sorry, I came up with the idea, but everyone agreed, I don't care about this kind of thing, my mission is to fly, to fight, not to fool people into selling aircraft carriers." ”
Nathan didn't want to do that.
Did you fool the British? Now it seems that yes, with decommissioned aircraft carriers, the participation of British state-owned enterprises was obtained, but as soon as a few years later, the Falklands War broke out, the British would have thanked themselves.
Nathan didn't feel like he was doing anything wrong.
Historically, the British took the path of light aircraft carriers, so there is a saying that it was the agitation of the Americans, and the Americans were building large aircraft carriers on their own, while spitting bitter water on the outside world, large aircraft carriers were useless, too expensive, and simply wasted, or small and medium-sized practicality.
That's right, catapults are too expensive, they break down every now and then, VTOL fighters, awesome!
In this way, the British fooled and lame and ran to build light aircraft carriers, while the United States is still taking underground aircraft carriers one after another, and the displacement is also larger than the other.
In fact, this is not the case at all, if it is said to fool, it is the Soviet Union that the United States wants to fool, and it is definitely not Britain, with the relationship between Britain and the United States, can you still not know the role of large aircraft carriers?
The problem of the British is that they don't have money in their pockets! A penny is hard to beat a hero, as the British colonies have become independent, there is no wool cutting, and the British national strength is declining, how to maintain a large aircraft carrier formation?
Coupled with the fact that those politicians are short-sighted, the army is really aggrieved.
Their navy, stumped not to want their own supercarrier? Look at the pilots they sent out, and the way they saw their own Tomcat fighters, you knew that the entire navy was looking forward to Tomcats.
If the UK is given two aircraft carriers, then they need to order at least 40 Tomcat fighters, plus an order for 80 Tomcats from BS country, which is enough for Grumman to maintain enough profits and enough for project improvements.
Wait, BS country!
Nathan suddenly thought of something, BS country, it seems that there will be chaos this year!
Nathan's crossing, so that the world is a little chaotic, the time for BS country to order Tomcat fighters is even more delayed, now, can you enlighten Grumman, don't be in a hurry to give the fighter to BS country, first cry poor with BS country, and then ask for a deposit.
When the BS country is in turmoil, it just so happens that these fighters will not need to be exported.
Yes, that's it!
In order to stabilize them, you can also ask the BS country to send pilots to come to your own side to learn the flight of the Tomcat, so that they will not be suspicious, and when that happens, it just so happens that the deposit is also taken, and there is no way to deliver the fighters, and besides, this batch of excess is just given to the UK, which is killing many birds with one stone.
At the same time, it also avoids the embarrassment of the Tomcat fighter, the most lame reason for the retirement of a Tomcat in history is because the BS country hostile to the United States is also equipped with the Tomcat, in order to prevent the BS country from obtaining the Tomcat parts, the United States simply decommissioned and destroyed the Tomcat, so that those unscrupulous businessmen can not smuggle the Tomcat parts, close the entire production line!
This behavior is simply too stupid, but this excuse really played a big role, and the retirement of Tomcat is such a ridiculous tragedy.
Nathan was already planning for the future.
Nathan's brain, spinning at such high speed, even made him ignore his surroundings.
It's time, the meeting is over, and it's time to get off work!
Jenny smiled and walked over to Nathan's side: "Major Nathan, your proposal is simply so interesting, can we talk?" ”
