Chapter 519: It's a pity that the descendants are not angry
"It was a great time, and everybody was all working together to do great things."
After learning about the development of the Luo civilization from Connor, the gatherers praised the Luo people during the technological explosion, and they saw the shadow of the ethnic group in the Luo people during this period.
Connor gladly accepted the praise, and many Luoren people, including Connor, also revered this group of pioneers who took the lead and forged ahead.
"Yes, as the descendants of those people, we will be proud of the achievements of our ancestors, and our civilization thrives on their hard work."
"It's a pity that our descendants are not very competitive"
In the era of technological development, all the people of Los Angeles believed that tomorrow would be better, and science fiction literature also began to prevail during this period, and many concepts such as space city, starfleet, orbital paratrooper, and so on began to appear one after another.
Among the Luo people, famous sociologists are optimistic that in a maximum of 1,000 years, the Luo civilization can achieve large-scale interstellar colonization.
Under a global referendum, the people of Kosan completed the peaceful unification of the countries of the world and formed a unified federal government.
But after that, something happened that made the Luo civilization take back the pace of moving outward, that is, the wave of privatization.
The development of the Luo civilization did not undergo privatization, and they were highly centralized ruling structures in the Cold Weapon Age, and each country was extremely hierarchical.
In the era of great industry, because of the high degree of centralization of power, it only took a political leader with an iron hand and sufficient foresight to quickly transform the country into a highly centralized industrial empire.
These industrial empires were extremely powerful, and their rulers were extremely far-sighted, and the capitalist countries felt threatened not long after the reforms were formed, and they did not hesitate to join forces to crush and conquer them by force.
The weakness of capital was exposed by the strong force, and eventually it became a semi-colonial social state.
However, these industrial empires did not last long, because of the rise of socialist states, they were more united and less prone to submission than industrial empires, and because they were workers' states, the existence of these states resonated with many workers at the bottom of the empire.
In this respect, the industrial empires are obviously inferior to the socialist countries, and the ruling power is like a dilapidated edifice, and the social structure of the country is transformed into a socialist system.
The Luo people later stepped out of their home planet, which was also carried out under the vigorous promotion of these socialist countries.
But this exposes another problem, that is, the Luo people have not experienced the baptism of privatization, and their beliefs are not firm, and they cannot firmly resist the temptation from capital.
In addition, there are some emerging concepts that have entered the vision of the Los Angeles people, such as human rights.
The Luo people, who have been shrouded in hierarchy for a long time, were immediately attracted by these things, and they fell into it irresistibly, and the call for democracy, freedom, and equality became higher and higher.
What followed was the process of large-scale privatization, which seemed to improve the overall quality of living of the Luo people, but in fact, it was to transform the resources of civilization as a whole from centralized to dispersed, and the material resources of a civilization were fixed unless the productivity of industrial innovation increased.
This has led to the unification government slowing down the pace of expansion after completing the survey of the outermost planet of the star system, or even standing still.
The unified government of the Luo people completed the global privatization due to public opinion, and private enterprises began to appear, and the Luo people burst out with higher productivity because of the stimulus of capital, so in the early days, the action of private ownership achieved good results, and the unified government did not order the termination of privatization.
However, after a long time, there will be problems, capital will corrupt the beliefs of the Luo people, so that they become no moral bottom line, when some Luo people are surprised to find that they can use a large amount of existing funds for capital operation, fooling some people, you can double your own capital increase, and you have no intention of working again.
These people have not been able to bring productivity to the civilization as a whole at all, but have become parasites within the civilization.
These parasites have noticed one thing, that is, they will inevitably be purged by the unified government, but now the unified government has not yet attacked them because of its ignorance of capital.
Therefore, they secretly banded together and prepared to fight a war with the unified government in their own way.
By using funds to corrupt a small person in the central bank who is not capable enough to climb to a high position, a consensus of interests is reached, and the small person wants power, and the capitalist wants money.
Soon after, the financial crisis began to sweep the world, and the unified government carried out macroeconomic regulation without knowing it, but this is also entering the trap of those financial parasites, who use the government's actions to make the financial crisis worse, and the bottom Luo people need to pull a cart of money to eat a full meal, and money is cheaper than toilet paper in this period.
The final result of this war was the victory of financial capital, the result of mental calculation or unintentional calculation, and the central bank, the lifeblood of the country's economy, completely fell into the hands of capital.
The entire Luo civilization began to enter the stage of deep corruption of capital, like a wild horse that has escaped and began to gallop in an uncontrollable direction.
In order to strengthen the voice within the unified government, so that it can no longer turn over and kill financial capital, these financial moths began to reach out to various institutions of the government and corrupt them with money.
What the? A member of the government who does not accept the corruption of money? But the colleagues around him are corrupted, what will they think of this colleague who does not accept the corruption of money?
Can they tolerate such an anomaly between them? The two have formed a natural antagonistic relationship between the two and the if-and-go, and the factional struggle has become more and more intense.
Since ancient times, there are very few Luo people who can resist the temptation of capital, and among these Luo people, there are very few Luo people who are capable enough to undertake government work, and in such an environment, there are fewer and fewer government members who are not changed by money, and the corruption of capital has been out of control.
The atmosphere within the unified federal government is extremely bad, with a corrupt government conniving at capital, and at the time when Connor is about to leave his home planet, there are always rumors that certain product parts are substandard and that certain food products are safe.
Capital can even manipulate public votes, as long as they are well disguised, the people at the bottom will be stupid to think that they still hold the power, but they don't know that they are just livestock raised by a beautiful lie.
