Chapter 360: Roger's Claim
"If only I would vote for Nikolai. George. "Jonny doesn't argue, he just says his point.
"As soon as you hear the name, you know that you are a person with no level." Roger sarcastically said.
"Indeed......" Jonny actually nodded in acknowledgement, which made Roger, who was crooked, feel good for a while.
"And you still choose him? You are picking and choosing, and you dare to accuse me of not thinking about this problem. Roger, who sat up straight, looked at Jonny and smiled.
"Of course I thought about it." Jonny hurriedly argued. "Nikolai. George is both an environmentalist and a co-operative, and if he comes to power, the current situation of the BAC's militarism will surely improve. As soon as he said his thoughts, Roger in the passenger seat snorted mockingly.
"Don't think about it in a vacuum, JFK, nothing can be changed, as long as there are chaebols like Heisenberg, nothing will improve." He shook his head and sighed deeply. "Interests, human nature, they drive everything. The pursuit of profit maximization can always only be to sacrifice the majority to satisfy the minority. He glanced at Jonny, saw that the latter bent his mouth and nodded with a deep look of approval, and said again: "This is the truth that I have figured out since I was 12 years old, how about it, deep enough atmosphere, right?" ”
"Do you know why the Development Committee chose to colonize the galaxy?" Roger continued to ask.
"In order to develop a suitable planet and facilitate the arrangement of human habitation?" Jonny replied casually.
"Wrong!" Roger rolled his eyes. "In terms of natural resources and planetary land area, Chilian and Puxing can theoretically accommodate 20 billion people, and we are only 2 billion now, so why do we need to desperately develop those dozen habitable planets?"
"Oh, why is that?" It's a question that Jonny hasn't thought about in detail.
"It's for the resettlement of the population! Or rather, the resettlement of idle populations replaced by automated machines. They lure them with high salaries, and send the guys who only eat idle food and clothing benefits to the kind of rotten places where birds don't, which ensures the population density and safety of the star. Roger said his reasoning, and Jonny couldn't help but nod his head.
"They're 'de-impoverishing' the planet!" The blonde youth's tone was impassioned.
"These elites are going to drive the nasty ghosts off the planet one by one and go to the poor lands to clear the land for their descendants. And those who can stay in Puxing and Chilian in the future will be a bunch of rich people with great wealth, so that it won't be long before the entire galaxy will be filled with one Minotaur after another. He announced to Jonny.
"And you came up with this when you were 12 years old?" Jonny was secretly shocked by Roger's analysis, which was not at all like his usual self.
"Of course......" Roger raised his chin, but finally explained honestly: "Of course this is what my old man said...... But...... But the rare thing is that I wrote them all down! He defended himself.
"Uncle turned out to be so politically savvy." Jonny exclaimed, based on Roger's previous descriptions, that he thought his father was an alcoholic who only knew how to play all his life.
"Make no mistake, he's just an alcoholic, and he only knows how to play all the time." Roger. Clark seemed to know immediately what Jonny was thinking. "But he was a man of great intelligence, and my grandfather said that if he hadn't been born into a military family, he might have been his proud son......"
"Looks like you're going to disappoint his old man together." Jonny sighed that Roger's father was going to be a traveler, and his own goal was to be a star player in professional football, and that the centuries-old military bloodline might be cut off from his generation.
"I don't know, Jonny, I don't know......" Roger said suddenly. And to Jonny's surprise, less than a year ago, sitting in the same seat in this car, the big boy described his dream to him. He loved the sport and was so talented that he didn't want to be a soldier, but he didn't want to waste his life like his irresponsible father, and he wanted to console his grandfather with the glory he had won in professional rugby, a dream he had worked so hard for.
"The lives of those children and what my father used to say...... I've thought a lot about it this year, Jonny. Roger stared blankly out the window, where the neon lights were shining.
"If the entire government of the Union were like another Heisenberg, ordering ordinary people in order and serving only the high-ranking and powerful, they would divide the whole society by deception and privilege, so that the poor would become poorer and the poor would suffer more......" he frowned and his expression was complicated.
"Think about those kids...... Afaye...... He was so precocious, witty, and kind, Calf ...... He will always have family in his heart, Tony, who has lost an arm, but who is so optimistic and tenacious, and John, Fowler, Thrush, and the little peregrine falcon, they are so good, so good! But because it is just blood, background and the regulations of those who wield power, they will live on the edge of human civilization forever if they are not fed and clothed. ”
"Roger......" Watching his friend's gradually agitated emotions, Jonny tried to persuade him, but the surging Roger could not return to quiet at this time.
"Don't Roger, I'......," he refused. If it is true, as my alcoholic father said, that the so-called colonial plan of the Development Committee is the culprit behind the increasing number of such children, and we are embarrassed to plunge ourselves headlong into the sand, wasting our future and our lost youth on entertainment competitions? ”
"I don't know...... I really don't know......" Roger shook his head slowly, his tone full of confusion.
"I hadn't thought of it before......" Jonny admitted after a long time. I just care about the campus, my family, and the ...... around me."
"It's a big world, Jonny......" Roger, who was always looking out the window, said with some seriousness.
"yes, it's big." So did Johnny.
